Blood Mine Lyrics

Forgotten miles below the surface through catacombs of stone
In moss covered tunnels labyrinthine are the shadows in which we do roam
In bondage kept the vessels the living breathing beasts
Hosts to a meal most exquisite the very blood their veins do keep

Herding them in, forcibly reproduced
Impatience to sink our fangs in deep
Rarely transcending youth

A farm of human beings
Inbred the speechless stock
Sightless eyes vestigial now
Never to know the glowing sun

Shepard them in violently consumed in captivity
So fearfully to become this evenings food

Blood mine
Feed on the weaklings
Blood mine
Harvest this nectar of life
Blood mine
Cyclic devourment
Over ages perfected
Your earth is protected for now

Our curse must be sated somehow
A secret best kept underground

Destroy, create
Manacled, skin grey
Vampiric we feast
The bigger the mortal the harder they bleed

In bondage kept the vessels
The living breathing beasts
Hosts to a meal most exquisite
The very blood their veins do keep

Herding them in, forcibly reproduced
Impatience to sink our fangs in deep
Rarely transcending youth

Blood mine
Feed on the weaklings
Blood mine
Harvest this nectar of life
Blood mine
Cyclic devourment over ages perfected your earth is protected for now

What is the Meaning of Blood Mine?

Exploring dark and sinister themes, these lyrics delve into a macabre world where humans are cultivated like livestock by vampiric entities. The imagery of "catacombs of stone" and "moss covered tunnels" suggests an ancient underground realm, reinforcing the idea of a hidden society thriving in secrecy. The humans, referred to as "vessels" and "living breathing beasts," symbolize the helpless prey, forcibly reproduced and consumed. The repeated phrase "Blood mine" emphasizes the notion of harvesting life essence, illustrating a cycle of exploitation perfected over time. This portrayal of vampirism can be interpreted as a commentary on power dynamics, oppression, and the existential dread of being trapped in a system beyond one's control. Ultimately, the song underscores the ominous idea that this cursed existence is maintained for an indefinite period. #VampiricTales #DarkThemes
