Vanilla Ninja Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
want to be with me
think you know the score
feel my burning flames
wanna hold me tight,
wanna be adored
feel my curse
welcome to the dangerzone
feel the poison in my veins
tell me are you strong enough
to keep up with my life
welcome to the dangerzone
what you see ain't what you get
let us fly this aeroplane
tonight
did you see the sign
did you read the warning in my eyes
got a heavy load
gotta stay on track when things explode
and together we´ll go through the fire
will you stay by my side?
welcome to the dangerzone
feel the poison in my veins
tell me are you strong enough
to keep up with my life
welcome to the dangerzone
what you see ain't what you get
let us fly this aeroplane

The song "Dangerzone" by Vanilla Ninja is a rock ballad about a mysterious and dangerous woman who wants to be loved and accepted for who she is. The lyrics suggest that the woman is a risk taker and has a wild, unpredictable nature that may be difficult for others to handle. She warns her potential lover about the danger she poses, but at the same time, invites him to take the risk and join her in her treacherous world.
The woman's desire for companionship is at odds with the threats she poses, as she "feels the burning flames" and "feels the curse" that is inside her. She acknowledges that others may not be prepared for the "poison in her veins" and "explosive" nature of her life. However, she seeks someone who will "stay by her side" and "hold the key of destiny" with her.
Overall, the song is an ode to a woman who is complex, dangerous, and ultimately, seeking acceptance and love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a woman who is both exciting and cautionary, daring and vulnerable.

Wahrlich eine gute Nachricht für die Tabakindustrie - vorausgesetzt, der Windbeutel David Brandes kann sie endlich bezahlen. Es stehen nämlich noch Zahlungen aus der Zeit vor der Pause aus (zwischenzeitlich war Brandes bereits insolvent).
