ARCH ENEMY

- Instinct Lyrics

Lyrics: Michael Amott

The more I see - the less I believe
The more I hear - the less I care
This world we've created
Has left me cold
This world is sedated
Dying in it's sleep

I feel nothing

Seen it written on a thousand faces
The simple truth we fear
Seen it happen in a thousand places
Instinct brought us here

The more I see - the less I believe
The more I hear - the less I care
We used to be the chosen ones
Second to none
Look at what we've become
A pathetic excuse for life

I feel nothing

I can feel nothing
Nothing at all
Except for the pain
That hits me again

Again

Lead - Christopher Amott
Lead Harmony - Michael and Christopher Amott

What is the meaning behind Instinct lyrics?


When we ask ourselves what the song was truly meant to express, the song 'Instinct' by Arch Enemy expresses disillusionment and emotional numbness that results from a world which has lost its direction through its use of the metaphor 'a world sedated, dying in its sleep' which shows global indifference and hopelessness. The lyrics of Instinct display five main elements which include despair and angst and reflection and social commentary and anger. The song demonstrates how disillusionment and emotional numbness and loss of identity serve as essential elements within its overall message. The lyrics of the song present themes of disillusionment and despair which might be too intense for younger listeners. The narrator experiences emotional distress because he repeatedly states that he feels nothing while his body endures pain, which creates a situation that could alarm parents of children under 13. The overall tone and the depiction of a bleak world will need parental guidance because this content may not suit younger listeners.
