when it says "are you defined by this false desire?" i think it means are you still searching for a false god? one that will not save you from the realities of life. "this inverted itch we scratch and for what?" may have something to do with questioning our existence..alot of philosophers dont believe in any actually answers to all the questions about the universe and existence. Orchid mentions Nietzche alot and he believed that no true nature of the universe exists simply because truth is always subjective. He was very much against Christianity and believed that human existence means nothing more than what we make of it ourselves. There is no Master plan so to speak. He was very deterministic..he believed that what happens in the future is an effect of an action made previously. So this line is basically saying, whats the point in asking all these philosophical questions if there are no answers? Then he says," has this false satisfaction put out the fire?" i think this means, has your questioning or perhaps your belief in a false god put your "fire" out. Fire being doubt..or the insatiable feeling of disatisfaction of life. I love Orchid they are an amazing band. Its so awesome that they talk about philosophy. it makes everything more interesting. |
