She Moves
Volcanoless In Canada Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Its in the way that she moves.
Shes Invisible / Im invincible.
His whole wide world revolves around my blackened room.
Its what I can guarantee
Since Ive got her begging on her knees

Its all Woes me! Hold me! Closely!
How about the way that she acts and attacks
A self-inflicted past
To clear her head of all the obstacles and traps?
Theyve been set in me, since 1982 or 3.

Its all Woes me! Hold me! Closely!

Until he says (Chamer): Pure lovers never know what a black heart dares to show.

Until she says (Snake): Though I came here to deny, the only thing thats on my mind




Is WILL YOU BE WITH ME?!
(such a parallelism to words that lay in graves)

Overall Meaning

The song "She Moves" by Volcanoless In Canada is a melancholic tune that talks about the power that a woman holds over a man. The first line "Its in the way that she moves" refers to the irresistible charm that the woman possesses, which makes her almost invisible to the singer of the song. He sees himself as invincible, but his whole world revolves around his "blackened room," a metaphorical representation of his depressive state of mind. In a way, it's the woman who gives him meaning and purpose, but it also puts her in a position where she's at his mercy.


The chorus "Its all Woe is me! Hold me! Closely!" portrays the mindset of the singer, who is consumed by his emotions and wants to be held close by the woman he desires. The next lines talk about the woman's own struggles with her past and how it affects her ability to open up to the singer. She has set up obstacles and traps for herself, which she needs to overcome to be able to fully love him. However, the singer sees this as an opportunity to take advantage of her vulnerability and make her beg for him on her knees.


The song takes an interesting turn when two other characters, Chamer and Snake, enter the narrative. Chamer talks about how pure lovers never know what a black heart dares to show, which suggests that there's more to the woman's character than what meets the eye. Snake's line "Though I came here to deny, the only thing that's on my mind is, will you be with me?" shows that she too desires the singer, and there's a sense of parallelism in the words that lay in graves.


Overall, "She Moves" is a hauntingly beautiful song that delves deep into human emotions and relationships, and it's open to interpretation based on the listener's perspective.
