I play hell, you play heaven
I'm deaths own little star...
Can you trace the sins that haunt you,
And play the devil's cards as I do?

I am all that you see,
I am all that you want me to be!

I am god, and so the antichrist
I'm blessed, yet damned
I'm fallen, yet resurrected
I'm all of nothing!

I play death, you play life, triple sixes to rise
Can you see the visions I brought you,
And the devilish games that I taught you?

I am all that you see,
I am all that you want me to be!

I am god, and so the anti-christ
I'm blessed, yet damned
I'm fallen, yet resurrected
I'm all of nothing!

Synthetic generation
Stop not, it's indifference high you must know
I am all that you see,
I am all that you want me to be!

I am god, and so the anti-christ
I'm blessed, yet damned
I'm fallen, yet resurrected
I'm all of nothing!

    Both god and the antichrist?

    God is the ultimate antichrist, is what he's saying. A twisted perversion of faith

    I am God, and so the antichrist.

    That line sums up the whole song. Satan, the antichrist, and all evil in the world are as much God's handiwork as all the good stuff. The devil is His left hand, and Jesus His right.

    the last line of the Chorus should be

    I'm all OR nothing

    it makes more sense, cuz the whole meaning of the song is that he is both satan and christ i.e. the two extremes of everything

    based on the chorus he's pointing that christianity is NOTHING! or worhtless... satan has been a paert of the christian religion as one of gods adversary..

    My Interpretation

    In monotheistic religions God is seen as everything, except the evil parts of the universe of aspects of the religion. This leaves the aspect of God in these religions to be paradoxical as something that is everything is not everything.

    Either God is everything or is nothing at all.

    I think your over simplifying it, its not about religion in a literal sense.

    I think its more along the lines that we the synthetic generation are our own gods and antichrists

Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Album art
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Album art
Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
