Ever wonder why you call me
All your fantasies drift by slowly
Ever wonder why you call me
Further like all your fantasies burn into me
Do you want me?
And like a warrior stand so taller than me
Watch him fight
Carving words in the walls
Made like a warrior
Stand so taller than me
Carving out your words in the walls
I can't reach my love
Where you're wasting away
I can't reach my love
Where you wasting away
Ever wonder why you call me
Further like all your fantasies burn into me
Burn into me
Do you want me?
I can't reach my love
Too far we're falling
I can't find my love
I can't find my love
Too far love
And farther baby
Made like a warrior
Stand so taller than me
Watch him fight
Carving words in walls
Made like a warrior
Stand so taller than me
When my soul left
The earth smashed in
And so then you would often be
Call out to all your fantasies in the fallen
All our fantasies drift by so slowly
Ever wonder, now lines the dreams were calling
Lost them to old friends
I can't find my love
I can't find my love
Shadows fill me up
Shadows fill me up
I can't find my love
Ever wonder why you call me
Further like all our fantasies
Do you want me?
About This Song
"Warrior Lord" is a haunting exploration of power dynamics and emotional distance in a deteriorating relationship, where the narrator feels dwarfed by a partner who looms like an intimidating "warrior" figure. The lyrics capture the frustration of being called upon for fantasies while feeling emotionally unreachable, with the repeated question "Do you want me?" revealing deep uncertainty about genuine connection versus mere desire. Poliça's signature sound-Channy Leaneagh's heavily processed, layered vocals floating over hypnotic electronic beats and live drums-creates an ethereal yet unsettling atmosphere that mirrors the song's themes of disconnection. The contrast between the warrior imagery of strength and dominance against the narrator's vulnerability reflects broader questions about gender, power, and intimacy in modern relationships. This track exemplifies Poliça's ability to transform personal emotional turmoil into expansive, dream-like soundscapes that feel both intimate and universal.
