Love Infernal

Poisonblack's 'Love Infernal' delves into the intoxicating and destructive nature of forbidden love. The song's lyrics are steeped in gothic imagery and metaphors that evoke a sense of dark romance and eternal damnation. The opening lines, 'Come, the thick night and breathe in me,' set the tone for a journey into a shadowy realm where love and death are intertwined. The repeated invitation to 'come' and 'die with me' suggests a union that transcends the mortal plane, hinting at a love that is both eternal and infernal.

The chorus, 'To live in desire is to play with the fire that burns within our every cell,' captures the essence of the song's theme. Desire is portrayed as a consuming fire, one that can lead to both ecstasy and destruction. The phrase 'dying eternal, love infernal' juxtaposes the concepts of eternal life and eternal suffering, suggesting that this love is both a blessing and a curse. The idea of a 'spell' that can be felt with 'just one kiss' adds a layer of enchantment and inevitability, as if the lovers are bound by a supernatural force.

The song also explores themes of emotional release and surrender. Lines like 'Kill the heart make the beating cease' and 'The chained emotions crave for release' speak to the intense, almost masochistic desire to break free from the constraints of ordinary life. The call to 'fall and surrender the weak pretender' implies that true love requires a complete abandonment of pretense and resistance. In this context, 'Love Infernal' becomes a powerful metaphor for the all-consuming, transformative power of love that defies societal norms and moral boundaries.
