| Is the last line on the song really said? My version doesn't have that. | |

| I think it sounds a bit like bulimia, especially when he says, "So thrust your fingers deep, my child. It is your burden and your gift." | |
| The Black Dahlia Murder – Miasma Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| It's supposed to be about the vile ugliness, selfishness, laziness, and just plain out pieces of shit that humanity really is. They will always sin, they'll always just wanna fuck, get away from their problems like bitches. | |
| The Black Dahlia Murder – Novelty Crosses Lyrics | 20 years ago |
| The song's mocking the resistance of temptation practiced in Christianity, saying that humanity has always been unpure since Adam and Eve. The song's mocking all religious figures and is oblivious to God's love or his rule, the narrator is the epitome of sin. | |

I also forgot to add: Stanza #9: "My love is but a lie, always reaping what I have sown Taking you down with me, to what degrees you'll never know." The final stanza is now saying that the final result is what he deserves, he's finally "reaping what I have sown". The person he refers to take down with him are the future victims of the entertainment industry, and the last line would mean that the victim won't ever know what hit him/her. |

The song is about how the music business, Hollywood, or just fame in general can bring you down as fast as it got you up. It's about how fame can dwindle down your dignity and your decency without any hesitation. It's a very intense and fast song, with brutal riffs and an amazing solo. Stanza #1: "Yeah I'm running of the rails, I've finally gone crazy And the ground is spinning faster than my teeth could ever grind." It's talking about how the pressure of fame has finally driven the narrator mad to the point of not being able to control his life. Stanza #2: "I know it's a shame when success was to blame, but I can't remember my name" The narrator has clarified that it was indeed fame that has driven him crazy to the point where he can't remember his name. Stanza #3: "In the absolute wrong, I have made this place to lay my head. A reocurring nightmare, I never trust I never rest." There's a sense of distrust the narrator feels, it's all a "reocurring nightmare" to him, the pressure and the paranoia never ceases to drive him mad. Stanza #4: "I've become another victim of this self-serving device. My cock does all the talking, my mouth now just for lie." This mentions how some amateur stars or artists have to resort to defiling themselves, i.e. sleeping with or involving in some sexual manner with the person in charge, the person who can get them to where they want to head, in this case, fame. Stanza #5: "I'm winding down to nothing, it suddenly comes clear. I'm winding down to nothing, human smoke that fills the air." This suggests that the narrator is dwindling down to a sub-human, someone who's not even decent enough to be considered human. The last line suggests that he (the narrator) is all nothing but lies and obscurities. Stanza #6: "What can you believe? That is the question. I have you on a string, something yet up my sleeve." That means to say that he's at the point of his career where he's all just full of shit right now. "I have you on a string, something yet up my sleeve" implies that he can make anyone easily believe anything he says to be the truth. Stanza #7: "Bury me deep, as we have an unborn child. In this world yet cold enough to host this seed of endless ugliness." He's just saying so much in this stanza. The top line implies that there are generations more to come of this depravity of humanity just for the success we as humans all crave. In the bottom line, he's saying that the rest of society do not care for what entertainers have to do to gain fame, as long as society has some source of entertainment. Stanza #8: "In a sea of corruption, a wake of lie so wildly I have stirred." It's just implying once again the corruption of the entertainment business, viewing entertainment corporations as parasites who defile entertainers for their own sake. Overall rating: 10/10 |
