Walkin'
Satanic Surfers / Ten Foot Pole Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The song "Walkin" by Satanic Surfers / Ten Foot Pole is about an invitation to a mysterious place that nobody has ever seen before. The lyrics describe a fortress that is located deep behind the trees and is so far away that it is hard to reach. The singer assures the listener that they will not fall on their way to the fortress because it has been there for a hundred years, and the supporting limbs will be there to guide them.
The lyrics evoke a sense of adventure and excitement as the singer takes the listener on a journey through the forest at night, where they expect to find the fortress in the sky. The mention of the moss growing on the north side of the trees is significant because it is a commonly known fact that moss tends to grow on the damp, shaded parts of the trees that face north. This suggests that the singer is familiar with the forest and knows his way around.
The song can be interpreted as a call to adventure, encouraging the listener to take risks and explore new places. The fortress symbolizes a place of safety and shelter, and the journey through the forest represents the challenges that one may encounter on the way to one's desired destination. In this way, the song is not just about taking a physical journey but also taking a journey of self-discovery.
