Came across this tune not too long ago and my jaw dropped. It's brilliant and works on so many levels. He uses satan(the story of Adam and Eve) as a metaphor for himself, his relationship (with the Eve) and it happens to work as an archetype if you will. The bible clearly states that women were a curse, because Eve ate from the tree of knowledge and really stuck it to us men. Though he is talking about his own relationship he also gives the underlying rewriting of the Adam and Eve story. In this case satan offered the fruit as a gift to win that first one, the first love (Eve) and he's been waiting 2,000 years(biblical timeline) and upon the end of his (satan's) reign the christians are at his door and telling him his time is done...and all he keeps explaining is that was he was waiting for the ONE that got away. Pretty damn cool ain't it? |
