I take back my prior comment. I, after spending much time studying Weiss's lyrical themes and spoken convictions, am hereby 80% convinced that he is a pantheist. Meaning that he believes God to be present in all and everything. Unless I hear otherwise in his spoken word, I believe that his theology is pressingly mistaken. It would make sense right? Singing, "Allah, Allah..." and saying God is "in every blade of grass?" "Be an orchard or a curling vine, the son of yours is the son that's my God." I think he has become under the mindset that God is found through all religions and all paths lead to heaven and God, "Come now David, where is everybody going?" Notice the word, "everybody." |

I believe that Aaron wrote this song before he "gave up" on finding a wife. I think that what is saying is that when I find "the-one" God has for me, Her and I will flame for Him. When Jesus is talking about spreading His word he says "No one lights a bowl and puts it in a place where it will be hidden or under a bowl. Instead, he puts it on its stand so that those who come in may see the light" (Paraphraes Luke 11). |

I think these songs either just fill up time on the CD, or they represent a constantly moving world, moving, not with God, but away from Him. How will you move? |

Or it could be the A/B blood-type...Just joking... I think these songs either just fill up time on the CD, or they represent a constantly moving world, moving, not with God, but away from Him. How will you move? |

I think this song is the artist's best interpretation of--- well "Night's sorrow", depicting the ups and downs of sadness and resentment... When listening to it one feels a sense of sorrow... |

| Becoming the Archetype – Dichotomy Lyrics

This song tells a story of the human race turning away from their God,"sewing their eyes shut to hide from the light". It may be referring to the scientific revolution and how it was a step towards secularism --- science being the creation of man. The only Biblical similarity I can find is that of Sodom and Gomorrah turning their backs on God, and ultimately being destroyed. |

Okay, I have never heard this song, but I will comment: I am currently a student in Arabic, and (if I'm not mistaken) there are! other names for God. One is R3ab... I think everyone is taking this the wrong way, I personally believe that he's offering a contrast, saying that the one true God, the only God, the one who loves enough to die so that we might live with him, is forgiveness, that He is not Allah, who sits up above us and is quite distant... He's saying that God is near us. |

No, Samuel is the one who anointed David as king... This song's meaning is pretty much understood; however I'm not sure I agree with every point it commends. The lines, "Every rook and jay in the Corvidae�s been raving about me too." and, " he'll [Goliath} be waiting for you when we get back home" (with emphasis on the words "Goliath" and "everyone", imply that everyone, including the philistines (a wicked pagan people) will enter the Heaven... The symbolism of this song is that we cling to life on this earth, but as Christians should be of the next world, not this one. |

| mewithoutYou – The Fox, the Crow, and the Cookie Lyrics

It (most assuredly) is based on the fable of the fox and the crow. I think that the morale this song presents is one discouraging vanity. My main reasoning for this conclusion is the entire end paragraph where we see the bird, victorious over the fruit of his efforts, prideful to the point of losing everything... The fox didn't immediately take the "treat" from the bird, he just tricked him into losing it, which to me symbolizes the devil, not directly forcing us to sin, but temping us --- as remembered in the devil's tempting of Eve in the garden of Eden.... I think the line: "Every rook and jay in the Corvidae�s been raving about me too" is funny. |
