Chevelle – In Debt to the Earth Lyrics 18 years ago
Can I say it ?

Its about M.A.D.

Mutually assured descrution.


And they know what we'll lose,
They know what they'll lose,
Such unspeakable room,
Now that, what will we do?

Chevelle – Antisaint Lyrics 18 years ago
"Visit again white elephant
Who sent you to the loom?
Shall we sever everything?
Ponder this while we ponder why."

In poetic and lyrical writing, the term "white elephant" is a fetus. The "loom" is also where life is created. Add these two together with "shall we sever everything, ponder this while we ponder why" could mean that the protagonist is considering abortion.


Assurance is what they need.
Hold the lion until it's fed.
It's still only morning
But the fly's surfaced.

Evidence is also supporting this thought is in this verse as well. C'mon, we've seen it in movies. We've read it in stories. People just need assurance before killing their child. "Hold the Lion" It could've been a healthy child. Maybe referring to the fact that the mother is a beast. (A bad person.) "Its only still morning, But the fly's still surfaced" Abortions usually affect you harshly in the morning. Personally, I think its guilt that you had a child killed. "But the fly's still surfaced"
