Silverbullit Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
in time
This is the first thing that comes
to my mind
When i call up inside and the
black starts to show
Then hell is for chilren is all
that I know
C-c-calling
C-c-calling
C-c-calling inside
All of these movies of you in my
mind
Run on repeat and there's no place
to hide
Think it's a laugh to holler and
shout
Hell is for children that's got to
come out
Inside
C-c-calling inside
Keep calling me keep calling me
Keep on calling inside
You and me baby two of akind
Both got em kicking calling inside
The lyrics of the song "Blood" by Silverbullit mainly reflect on the emotional and psychological turmoil of the singer. The first two lines of the song, "Regard this an action unbroken, in time, This is the first thing that comes to my mind" seem to indicate that the singer is reflecting on a particular action or event that has had a significant impact on his life, and that event is replaying in his mind in a continuous loop.
The next lines, "When I call up inside and the black starts to show, Then hell is for chilren is all that I know," suggest that the singer's mental state is slowly deteriorating, and he is experiencing blackouts, possibly triggered by a traumatic event in his past. The phrase "hell is for children" is possibly a reference to the Alice Cooper song of the same name, which talks about child abuse and its long-lasting effects.
The chorus of the song, "C-c-calling, C-c-calling, C-c-calling inside," is possibly an expression of the singer's internal struggle and the need to reach out for help. The following lines, "All of these movies of you in my mind, Run on repeat and there's no place to hide, Think it's a laugh to holler and shout, Hell is for children that's got to come out," suggest that the singer is haunted by memories of a past relationship or a traumatic event that he cannot escape from.
Overall, the lyrics of "Blood" are open to interpretation, but they seem to reflect the struggles of a person dealing with unresolved emotional trauma.
