Shadows
Twin Tribes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The smell of blood in my dreams.
Darkness and silence bring the fear in your eyes tonight
The cold invades you to sleep
Don't sleep till we fade
Your skin left undead
We'll sleep till we fade away
Our crescent shadows seem to find their way out of time
They make their way through the trees
No one will find us as we walk through the dark tonight
The cold invades you to sleep
The lyrics to Twin Tribes' song "Shadows" appear to be about a very dark, perhaps supernatural experience. In the first verse, the singer describes feeling like they're going crazy because they keep dreaming about the smell of blood. This could suggest that something violent or sinister has been happening in their waking life that's now manifesting in their dreams. The darkness and silence are also eerie, and there's an implied danger in someone's eyes tonight.
In the second verse, the lyrics become even more mysterious. There's a mention of "crescent shadows" that seem to be leading the singer and someone else through the trees. These shadows are probably not natural or normal, as shadows don't usually have a mind of their own. The singer also says that nobody will find them, which could imply that they're hiding from someone or something. The last line of the verse about the cold invading sleep is particularly creepy, as it suggests that the only way the two characters will be able to rest is by giving in to the cold embrace of death.
Overall, the lyrics create a very unsettling tone, with lots of darkness and danger, and a sense of something powerful and ancient at work.
Line by Line Meaning
This time of night feels like I'm losing my mind to find
During this time of night, I feel like I'm going insane trying to discover something.
The smell of blood in my dreams.
I have the scent of blood in my dreams.
Darkness and silence bring the fear in your eyes tonight
The absence of light and sound evokes terror in your eyes this evening.
The cold invades you to sleep
The chilliness permeates your body as you drift off to slumber.
Don't sleep till we fade
Stay awake until we vanish.
Your skin left undead
Your flesh remains lifeless and motionless.
We'll sleep till we fade away
We'll rest until we disappear.
Our crescent shadows seem to find their way out of time
The curved outlines of our figures appear to escape temporal constraints.
They make their way through the trees
They move through the trees.
No one will find us as we walk through the dark tonight
As we stroll through the obscurity, no one will locate us.
The cold invades you to sleep
The chilly temperature creeps into you as you fall asleep.

This time of night feels like I’m losing my mind to find
the smell of blood in my dreams.
Darkness and silence bring the fear in your eyes tonight.
The cold invades you to sleep.
Don’t sleep till we fade
Your skin left undead
We’ll sleep till we fade away
Our crescent shadows seem to find their way out of time
They make their way through the trees
No one will find us as we walk through the dark tonight.
The cold invades you to sleep.

The 80s post punk sound returns that Goth feel dark and seductive.

I'm so happy I can die dancing.

I haven't seen a big label pick them up yet. They're kind of a household name in this kind of community though. I'll be seeing them this Tuesday 🖤
@voxifera2300
@@FHSBlackSwarm I saw them in SD a few weeks ago! I saw them 2 years ago too (have a video on my channel actually!), it was such a small venue and crowd back then I was literally like right in front of them lol but this past show the crowd was HUGE! I knew they were gonna blow up in the latino goth community <3
@FHSBlackSwarm
@@voxifera2300 hell yeah dude! I live in El Paso and as an avid show goer (lol) I know that SD is always poppin. We have a very small goth community here and usually bigger names will not stop by unless it's already on the way :(
If you live out there I envy you. Just saw Korine recently as far as goth/wave goes but that was out in Phoenix. Last goth band out here was maybe Drab? It's been a while. I also have some content posted dude. Happy listening 🏄
