Devorando El Corazón

Warcry's song 'Devorando El Corazón' delves into the intense and consuming nature of passionate love. The lyrics begin with a metaphorical 'ray of light' entering the darkness, symbolizing the arrival of a significant other who brings profound change and warmth into the narrator's life. This person becomes essential, as the narrator realizes they would feel cold without them, highlighting the deep dependency and emotional connection formed.

The song continues to explore the duality and unity of the relationship, comparing it to the 'strange communion between the Moon and the Sun.' This metaphor suggests that despite their differences, the two are bound by an unending passion. However, this intense connection also brings a sense of foreboding. The narrator reflects on the potential for a tragic end, likening their love to flying too close to the Sun, a reference to the Greek myth of Icarus, which symbolizes the dangers of overreaching or becoming consumed by one's desires.

The recurring chorus emphasizes the internal conflict and the consuming nature of this love. The narrator feels the love so deeply that it manifests as a burning fire within, 'devouring the heart.' This imagery of fire and burning conveys both the intensity of the passion and the potential for destruction. The repetition of these lines underscores the inescapable and overwhelming nature of their emotions, suggesting that the love, while deeply fulfilling, also carries the risk of emotional devastation.
