| TestAmenT – More Than Meets the Eye Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| It's a song about a schizophrenic who can't escape the cell and prison of his sickness. The demons of his mind (hallucinations) chase him, and the voices don't stop talking, driving him insane. He treats schizophrenia as a punishment for his unworthy life. "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" - now he taught himself to control all of this, and he found a way to channel his energies into strength and invincibility. The "more than meets the eye" clip contains plenty of shadow-bats: a common hallucination amongst schizophrenics...the title of the song means that "there are more things in heaven and on earth than our philosophers have dreamt of" - that is - we can't see everything that exists out there...but some can...generally a song about mental illness and recovery into super-man of some sort. Maybe - maybe not. | |
