That's how I understand the lyrics

It is a perfect description of a narcissistic attack on a trained empath. (The comparison with the serpent for the empath results from the perception of the uneducated outside world via the empath, which he uses ironically). The narcissist tries to twist your thinking, your emotional life. Everything is twisted. The whole life of a narcissist turns things around. Love is evil (to be). Crime is trust in others (I trust your naivety) and the distorted idea that cheating is a gift (I cheat on you, so I trust you). Just as the thinking that cheated on people did not want it otherwise. Ergo, it is legitimate. It's just about control. Eros is a compensator for anger. And when I commit a sin, it's pure sincerity ... "I'm so authentic."

"As if my Feathers were wax". This is also a perfect description of the feeling you have when you have a relationship with a narcissist. Every lightness disappears from your life. Self doubt lies like stones on your neck. As if you were pressed by an invisible force to the ground / sucked. It slowly drains you of all creativity and self-confidence. The only people who can and should oppose a narcissist (but only if they have to because it is still dangerous) are empaths that are solid and stable in themselves. They are virtually unable to crawl and deny the signs of sick narcissism. And they can fight back hard. They are the nightmare of a narcissist, because they have the ability and sometimes the weapons to unmask a narcissist.

"Dou you like our bed. Six deep feed" is a metaphor for what a narcissistic attack always means. After the only form of love the narcissist knows, the perfect control to satisfy all his needs, the perfect destruction takes place. The narcissist is only satisfied if all aspects of your personality are so weakened that they enter self-destruct mode. Not least, they try to achieve this through sexual atrraction.

"You should take better care of yourself". That's a funny quote. Because it is a paradoxical warning. The narcissist can do nothing but look at himself. I doubt a narcissist can understand this warning. He takes them, as in the story with Zeus, completely literally. Zeus knows that. A good example of someone who has wondered how legitimate it is to beat the narcissist with unfair means, especially if you are an empath (They have high moral standarts).

My Interpretation

@Morphelia / Myself. NOT "You should better take care of yourself". It's "You better watch yourself". Sorry.^^ Translation Problem.

@Morphelia You absolutely nailed it

@Morphelia sorry to tell you this but this song means NONE of that bullshit. It was a bet he could write a song without using the word “the” in the lyrics. That’s it. Nice evaluation though!! Gosh!!
