Considering this song was released before "The Village" this is pretty irrelevant; or insightful. Take it however you please. But I cannot listen to this song without having at least a few flashbacks of that crappy movie. Particularly the last 4 lines. "Guard the houses" the entire village was nothing but houses housing residents. "Triple the watch" aka watching for those of whom we don't speak. "Maidens dig up your sorcery" I can't help but think of the costume that couple had hidden under their floorboards in which they eventually had to "dig up". "Sirens sharpen your rocks" in other words the men at the bells around the town are to prepare for another invasion by those of whom we don't speak.
