This is my fav song but I've never really understood what the lyrics mean. I guess their poetically ambiguous flavour could be summed up thus: men must fight against their true feelings in an attempt to remain loyal to their principles or someone else's principles be they religious, political, military or whatever. whether to attain power or simply survive. And the patriarchal bullies in charge enforce this division on men by insisting that they identify with their cause, their will, their stupid crimes and blood-ridden curses, particularly as soldiers but now also as fodder for corporations. |
