Bible Arm on social hell spins its downward spiral
with each year of unprogression a fine of failure is added
closer than ever to the edge, a faith in resident martyrs
strong object track my body, my body down.
eyes, disappearing rebirth of light
between a labyrinth of errors and the key to the suicide era
digging through the graves of giants, words fly to me
a lonely load, like a promise failing miserably
running through like an alphabet of hate
to shake the entire organism, closer than ever, ever to the edge
eyes, disappearing rebirth of light
between a labyrinth of errors and the key to the suicide era
i kill for the code, to disarm this mess
of psychotic chaos that once i mixed up myself
disarm
with each year of unprogression a fine of failure is added
closer than ever to the edge, a faith in resident martyrs
strong object track my body, my body down.
eyes, disappearing rebirth of light
between a labyrinth of errors and the key to the suicide era
digging through the graves of giants, words fly to me
a lonely load, like a promise failing miserably
running through like an alphabet of hate
to shake the entire organism, closer than ever, ever to the edge
eyes, disappearing rebirth of light
between a labyrinth of errors and the key to the suicide era
i kill for the code, to disarm this mess
of psychotic chaos that once i mixed up myself
disarm

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
Well in the bible Goliath was a big evil giant, and david was a small man with a slingshot. David, with help from god won the great fight between the two. Very inspirational really. The small overcoming the great.
I beg to differ with everyones interpretation so far. the music of this song is too glorious and uplifting for the goliaths, who are doing the disarming to be the bad guy. and as for the lyrics:
In Flames, in this modern metaphysical piece invert the attention.
I think that it is unquestionable that this song tackles religion. firstly, it's implied by the title. Goliaths disarm their davids. Secondly, the very first line seems to critisize the work religion does in a society thirdly, the protagonist of this poem is collecting the words of Fallen Goliathsin his quest to Disarm "this psychotic chaos".
WHY?
Well, the beauty of David vs. Goliath is howsomeone so small can challenge something so big. But in reflection, what is bigger? The Desciple of God, or the opposer of religion? In this piece, Goliath is romanticised. or the goliaths. the giants, who the protagonist gathers his information, or code, from. the giant is suitable as an image. this song romanticises the strong individuals in their struggle against the weaker masses, who are under davids "bible arm", his catapult, that "spins it's downward spiral."
"The Code" is the information, gathered from the atheists struck down by the masses ("the graves of giants") and the protagonist is searching for informatin sufficient enough to take away the persuasive power the religious authorities have that leads to the problems brought up in the first verse.
Another thing which convinces me that the singer is on goliaths side is the last line of that verse. "Strong objects track my body, My body down"
david killed goliath with a catapult. goliath (i think) was unarmed.so if the posotive character(s) of the poem are the Davids, then this poem is writen from the point of view of The negative character(s), Goliath, which is completely inconsistant with the rest of the song.
by the way, i hope that i've made everyone who thought that the goliaths were the bad guys in this song feel really stupid now, or else that their able to back their points up with sufficient refrence to the song. i had to through that in their. i just couldn't help highlight that i'm disarming the other interpretations.
