I'm pretty sure the story is based on Echo and Narcissus. Echo loves Narcissus and Narcissus loves himself. Narcissus is so in love with himself that he can not stray away from his own reflection in a lake and stays there looking at his reflection until he dies, hench the part of the song which says: the only eyes you'll look into are those in your reflection you are the means of my end Echo is a wood nymph which is addicted to hearing her own voice and always had to have the last word in a conversation. She would occasionally keep Hera, Zeus' wife busy while Zeus would womanize among the other nymphs. When Hera found out she took away Echo's ability to speak freely, and the only words she could say were those which were last spoken to her by another person. When Echo is turned down by Narcissus, she then mourns for the rest of her days until she fades away. An excerpt from a poem by Alan Cook based on the relationship between Echo and Narcissus states: "Though Echo was hiding, was hiding, her heart Was burning with red-hot fire... ...Alas, Narcissus knew nothing of love; In him there burned no flame." this explains the part of the song that says "your empty words now drift away as fragile whispers I saw the day when the fire left your eyes, your tongue fell still" I'm too lazy to explain anymore. I urge you all to look up the story of Echo and Narcissus if you want to understand the whole song. |

| I thought about the lyrics, and was wondering how else it could be interpreted in a different way to Castlevania. It sounds like there's a necromancer who summons demons, ghouls, the undead, wolves etc to be his army to take over the world. | |

What you must never forget is that Trevor enjoys shocking his fans, so it's reasonable that his version differs from the original. "The bosom where I would rest my face is covered in your blood." The corpse which he has sex with could potentially be his own mother. |
