Walk the Line
Virgin Snatch Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why can't you see that the object of your obsession
Is invariably something positive
Don't give me this Passive- aggressive shit!
You Don't want to risk / You don't believe
Don't want to build with me! / Don't wan to walk with me

Again and again
Resort the machinations
Offering new
Offering you a ride

Trying to walk the path
Of specified destinations
Trying to stay the curse
YOU WALK THE LINE!

I speak the truth
The land is ruled by fools
Like chastened children
Sitting silently in a school

Their faces dulled
Constrained and so afraid
What have you done Dude!
You are still not understood!

You'll loose the game you're playing
Better keep your head on
Following Art Of Lying
Carry On. Carry On! FUCK!

[1st solo: Grysik / 2nd solo: Hiro]

WALK ON THE LINE SLOWLY
YOU ALWAYS STOP RIGHT IN THE SHIT
IT KIND OF MAKES YOU WONDER
DAY IN - DAY OUT
THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT ONE WAY TRACK

WALK ON THE LINE SLOWLY
YOU HAVEN'T MUCH TIME TO DECIDE
PRIVILEGE MEMBERS ONLY




DAY IN - DAY OUT
THERE IS NO DOUBT

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Virgin Snatch's song "Walk the Line" seem to be criticizing someone who is obsessed with something positive, but is also passive-aggressive and unwilling to take risks or believe in the person speaking to them. The singer is frustrated with this person's behavior and feels like they are constantly offering new opportunities and trying to help them, but they are unwilling to take any action. The repeated chorus of "you walk the line" seems to be a message that the person needs to make a decision and commit to a specific path or destination.


In the next verse, the singer switches to a broader commentary about society being ruled by fools and people being constrained and afraid. They seem to be asking the question of what the person they were speaking to has done to contribute to this situation. The final lines of the song urge the listener to keep their head on and follow the art of lying, which could be seen as a cynical message about navigating a world ruled by fools.

Wow what a Name
Brings to mind the Band
"Power of the Pussy" which is more of an Alt-Metal band
