Fallen Angel
Seelenkrank Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fallen Angel, I need your flesh
There's a weight from deep within
The blood on my lips, it tastes like sin
I like your pale skin, I close your eyes
Nothing to see in this world of lies
But on this night it was no crime
To show you my world, and so you can see
I love you when you're dead, it's no difference to me
The lyrics to Seelenkrank's "Fallen Angel" are a chilling portrayal of a twisted obsession with death and the human body. The singer of the song seems to be addressing a deceased person, a "Fallen Angel" whose flesh they crave. The concept of the fallen angel, often associated with Lucifer, adds to the dark and foreboding tone of the lyrics.
The lyrics also suggest a sense of guilt or shame on the part of the singer, as they reference the "weight from deep within" and the "world of lies." The imagery of blood on the lips and pale skin adds to the macabre atmosphere of the song, and the line "I love you when you're dead, it's no difference to me" is particularly disturbing in its implication. The intensity and desperation of the singer's desire for the fallen angel's flesh creates a disturbing picture of obsession and necrophilia.
Overall, the lyrics to "Fallen Angel" paint a bleak and unsettling portrait of a person consumed by a twisted love for death and decay.
