The meaning of the lyrics of the song "A Dangerous Mind" by the artist "Within Temptation"

Contents

:

The lyrics of Within Temptation's song "A Dangerous Mind" portray the growing fear and distrust of the lyrical hero towards someone they likely loved.

The hero notices ominous changes in the beloved's behavior ("something strange is going on"), which causes anxiety and a desire to understand the situation ("I'm searching for the answers"). They see alarming signs ("I'm getting closer to the fire") and sense impending doom.

The key phrase of the song is "dangerous mind," which the hero sees in the eyes of their beloved. These thoughts, hidden behind a smile and promises, inspire fear and chilling terror. The hero realizes that behind the outer mask lies something dark and sinister ("your true colors start to bleed through").

The premonition of trouble ("the curse of hindsight") robs the hero of peace; they are torn between the desire to escape from danger and the need to understand what is happening. The song ends with a question addressed to the hero themselves: run or hide from the one who has become alien and frightening?

I'm searching for answers

Cause something is not right.

I follow the signs,

I'm close to the fire.

I fear that soon you'll reveal

Your dangerous mind.

It's in your eyes, what's on your mind.

I fear your smile and the promise inside.

It's in your eyes, what's on your mind.

I fear your presence, I'm frozen inside.

I'm searching for answers

Not questioned before.

The curse of awareness,

There's no peace of mind.

As your true colors show

A dangerous sign.

It's in your eyes, what's on your mind.

I see the truth that you've buried inside

It's in your eyes, what's on your mind.

There is no mercy, just anger I find.

I just have to know, while I still have time.

Do I have to run, or hide away from you?
