| Samael – Inch'Allah Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| Not sure about the rest of the song, but I just realized the meaning of the title. Inch Allah seems to be a play on the word "Inshallah", which means "God/Allah willing". Samael appears to have a sort of Middle Eastern theme going on, lately, so that would make sense. The fact it is "Inch Allah" instead of "Inshallah" kind of makes me wonder what that possible hidden meaning could be. Maybe downplaying God/Allah as being small (negligible?)? Maybe referring to something small acting as a savior? Like how you'll have a bad day, but then one little thing you notice makes it all worthwhile. | |
| Dir En Grey – Obscure (English) Lyrics | 17 years ago |

You can tell the song is about abortion even without reading the translated lyrics. Just look at the video. I mean it has careless sex (conception), then vomiting (morning sickness), then it has the amputee (fetus), then it has the ever-popular scene with the woman eating the baby's head (abortion). Then, looking at the lyrics, it does the same thing. Talking about hanging (which is a form of murder/killing that is now looked down on). The woman was raped. "How deep will it sink inside eating skin that doesn't match? " says that the man was of a different race. "The snake maes way through the sheets and goes inside the uterus." has imagery of the penis and the snake goes with the Adam and Eve thing along with the apple/baby in the video. "It can seem like a someivoshino a cherry blossom petal, that dances sadly. The stain is the moon that's fullfilled, and the vomiting at night begins. Don't you remember?" I don't know what a "someivoshino" is, but I do know that flowers usually represent virginity. The stain could be the sperm as "the moon" could be referring to color and "the vomiting at night begins" is the general sickness women get when pregnant. I don't know what a lot of the rest means (especially the end), except the bits that repeat themselves or are self-explanatory. |
