Exorcist
Törr Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Medusu máš v oku, země čeká na tvůj hrob
Síly zla už přicházej od devíti bran
Nad sebou kříž obrácenej, na hrudích maj pentagram
Exorcist neber
Exorcist toho se chraň
Exorcist je bolest
Vyzvání zvon smrti, nastala tvá chvíle
Kyvadlo čas drtí, teď jsi poznal svoje cíle
Slyšíte to chvění, slyšíte ten zvuk
To dynastie mrtvých tančí Sarabandu už
The lyrics to Törr's song "Exorcist" are rooted in the religious mythology of exorcism and demonic possession. The opening lines, "Welcome to your funeral, the priest has a job again / You have Medusa in your eyes, the earth waits for your grave," set a foreboding atmosphere for the song. The singer warns of the incoming forces of evil that come from the nine gates, and describes the image of a cross turned upside-down on their chest and a pentagram on their body.
The chorus emphasizes the power and danger of the exorcist. The singer implores the listener to "beware" of the exorcist and calls upon them to "rise up" against the pain that the exorcist represents. The song concludes with the chilling image of the dead dancing a Saraband, a dance historically associated with death and the underworld.
Overall, the lyrics to "Exorcist" paint a haunting picture of religious power and the dangers that come with it. The battle between good and evil, and the notion of exorcism as a tool for dealing with demonic possession, are prevalent themes that are explored within this song.
