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”
Serpent upon the cross
Faith swept into blackness
So shall there be restitution
In the slaughter of the masses
Rise oh great deceiver
Return to the gardens alas
As it was so it shall be again
Enthroned in mirrored halls
The day of the false prophet has come to pass
There'll be a cleansing of the saints
Towards the left hand path desperate they crawl
All are guilty of their own demise
The burden of lies will swallow them all
Bring me the eyes of the father
Spill their wrists recite their vows
Lay the lamb of christ upon his altar
Slice vengeance in the neck of the sow
Demons of doctrine
Creatures of the cold
Forged preachers of hatred
Outdated gospel to the world of old
Serpent upon the cross
Faith swept into blackness
So shall there be restitution
In the slaughter of the masses
Scholars shield their fate
A void within the walls of sanctuaries (sanctuaries)
Fraudulent labor ripened with temptation and indulgence
For the true author of the soul to savor
As they gather in masses upon the hills beyond the sands
Rejoice the morning star rises in the east
The word of god departs from man
And as the centuries seam together
Shall we open our hearts to truth
Man is one with the fire in the center of the earth
Lucifer bring us rebirth
Lucifer
Light bearer
Bring us rebirth
Rejoice
The day of satan and man is upon us
Rejoice
The day of satan and man is upon us
Rejoice
The day of satan and man is upon us
Rejoice
The day of satan and man is upon us
Faith swept into blackness
So shall there be restitution
In the slaughter of the masses
Rise oh great deceiver
Return to the gardens alas
As it was so it shall be again
Enthroned in mirrored halls
The day of the false prophet has come to pass
There'll be a cleansing of the saints
Towards the left hand path desperate they crawl
All are guilty of their own demise
The burden of lies will swallow them all
Bring me the eyes of the father
Spill their wrists recite their vows
Lay the lamb of christ upon his altar
Slice vengeance in the neck of the sow
Demons of doctrine
Creatures of the cold
Forged preachers of hatred
Outdated gospel to the world of old
Serpent upon the cross
Faith swept into blackness
So shall there be restitution
In the slaughter of the masses
Scholars shield their fate
A void within the walls of sanctuaries (sanctuaries)
Fraudulent labor ripened with temptation and indulgence
For the true author of the soul to savor
As they gather in masses upon the hills beyond the sands
Rejoice the morning star rises in the east
The word of god departs from man
And as the centuries seam together
Shall we open our hearts to truth
Man is one with the fire in the center of the earth
Lucifer bring us rebirth
Lucifer
Light bearer
Bring us rebirth
Rejoice
The day of satan and man is upon us
Rejoice
The day of satan and man is upon us
Rejoice
The day of satan and man is upon us
Rejoice
The day of satan and man is upon us

Just A Little Lovin'

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
