This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Baby, baby, you cannot protect me,
But I've heard of one who can,
And he does not take sides tonight.
Baby, baby, if this is the ending,
Then we'll find out how it ends,
We'll find where we begin again.
I can't tell you it will be alright,
Hold me through the shelling of the night.
Let them come for us,
Let them have their way with our names they drag through the mud.
Should they murder us,
We will live again in the clouds that cover the sun.
Baby, baby, if there is eternity,
Then it must be made of love,
How else could I hope in all this death?
Baby, baby, tonight I have no enemy,
I have held my fellow man,
Looked into his dying eyes.
I just wanna look into the light,
Hold me through the shelling of the night.
Let them come for us,
Let them have their way with our names they drag through the mud.
Should they murder us,
We will live again in the clouds that cover the sun.
Let them come for us,
I'm on your side.
Should they murder us,
I'm on your side.
But I've heard of one who can,
And he does not take sides tonight.
Baby, baby, if this is the ending,
Then we'll find out how it ends,
We'll find where we begin again.
I can't tell you it will be alright,
Hold me through the shelling of the night.
Let them come for us,
Let them have their way with our names they drag through the mud.
Should they murder us,
We will live again in the clouds that cover the sun.
Baby, baby, if there is eternity,
Then it must be made of love,
How else could I hope in all this death?
Baby, baby, tonight I have no enemy,
I have held my fellow man,
Looked into his dying eyes.
I just wanna look into the light,
Hold me through the shelling of the night.
Let them come for us,
Let them have their way with our names they drag through the mud.
Should they murder us,
We will live again in the clouds that cover the sun.
Let them come for us,
I'm on your side.
Should they murder us,
I'm on your side.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
