Coma
Rhesus Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

She was your guinea pig
and you were spurnt by desire
i'm so sorry to see you so low
now i wanna scratch your eyes
i wanna smash your body
i wanna nail you on my wall
i'm in a coma
i'm in a coma

and i wanna scratch your eyes
and i wanna smash your body
and i wanna nail you on my wall

i'm in a coma
i'm in a coma

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Rhesus's song Coma depict the intense emotions of someone who has been wronged and seeks revenge. The first two lines describe the dynamic between two people - the first person being the "guinea pig" of the second person's desires. It's possible that the first person was used as an experiment or object of desire, and is now a victim seeking justice. The lyrics then turn to express the singer's desire to physically harm the other person - they want to scratch their eyes, smash their body, and even nail them on a wall. The repetition of "I'm in a coma" may signify that the singer is struggling to come to terms with their violent impulses and is wrestling with them internally.

Overall, the lyrics to this song are powerful and intense, evoking a sense of raw emotion and a desire for vengeance. It's rare to see lyrics that are so explicit in their descriptions of violence, but the intensity of the emotion behind them makes them hard to forget.
