I think it's about the cycle of life and death within nature and how the body decomposes and returns to the earth after death, "Earth to flesh, flesh to wood, cast these limbs into the water Flesh to wood, wood to stone, cast this stone into the water..." but I could be dead wrong. |

| Necrophagist – Seven Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
Here's my take on the lyrics: I think they're about preachers/ Christian leaders in general. Basically the first verse refers to a preacher, who , despite his own personal issues, points out the flaws and short comings of others, condemning them to Hell for possibly many of the same "sins" he himself commits. Ted Haggard comes to mind... I believe the second verse refers to the preacher thinking he is the only one worthy of passing through the gates of heaven because he lives a "righteous" life because he has discovered the Seven (deadly sins). |
