The Devour
Unleashed Power Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
stick to rage for your salvation
how will you get on your feet
you're too involved in deceit
return the devour to where it dwells
can't you see your life's at stake
when will you realize your own mistake
feel the pain when it returns
strip your soul your inside burns
desolate your own mind screams
wasted life and no more dreams
every attempts bound to fail
try to avoid the treacherous trail
another day in a living hell
return the devour to where it dwells
can you free yourself of this curse
no remedy it must reverse
understand the end is near
blinded by the reign of fear
sell your life for the next day
the last resort is to pray
doomed to eternal damnation
just another failed expectation
can't you see your life's at stake
when will you realize your own mistake
another day in a living hell
return the devour to where it dwells
can you free yourself of this curse
no remedy it must reverse
The lyrics of Unleashed Power's song "The Devour" seem to be addressing someone who is trapped in a cycle of self-destruction. The opening lines suggest that this person started down a certain path without fully understanding what they were getting themselves into. The song then advises them to channel their anger in a productive way instead of succumbing to deceit and self-delusion. The phrase "watch you die in your own spells" implies that this person is using their own negative energy to harm themselves.
The chorus is a plea for this person to wake up and realize the gravity of their situation before it's too late. The lines "feel the pain when it returns" and "strip your soul your inside burns" suggest that the consequences of their actions are catching up with them. The song describes this person as being trapped in a "living hell" and doomed to "eternal damnation" if they don't change their ways. The closing lines suggest that their only hope for salvation is to pray.
Overall, "The Devour" is a cautionary tale about the dangers of self-destructive behavior. The song warns that it's easy to get caught up in negativity and that the consequences of doing so can be severe. It advises listeners to take a hard look at their own lives and make changes before it's too late.
