thanks again enoon
so you are guessing the meaning and saying it can't be understood precisely,we need to ask the poet?
is this a figurative word?

Something like that. To be charitable, I would say that the writer is being obscure. The lyrics are from the theme song of a Transformers movie, and I suspect he had something from the movie in mind there, but we, not knowing what that is, are mystified. Just look up the word in a dictionary, and you have as good a chance as I do of understanding the lyric.
