She Burns Us
Poema Arcanus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Chorus:
It is the nature of all things and all men
The blood has called her child for many years
And there is no way to resist her
I will crawl like a spider, small, dirty and free
And turn loose these desires hidden under dust
Three times I will sin, three times I will deny
Only myself and the ashes of my past
As I jump into the void, this bet I have lost
The pleasure of risk in this fragile existence
I have no answers, so don't ask for regrets
...And let me dream in life...so deep...
Chorus:
The light gives life... but it also takes it away
She burns us with every, tick of the clock
I'm drowning in this addiction to burn with her
And the beliefs of my past life
With her and the beliefs of my past life

It's as though the singer is recognizing the destruction that has been caused by their addiction but is unable or unwilling to change. The final line, "And let me dream in life...so deep..." speaks to a desire to continue living in this state of escapism.
Overall, "She Burns Us" delves deep into the psyche of addiction and the hold it can have on individuals. It's a haunting and poignant song that resonates with many who have struggled with similar issues.
