I think the "a thousand suns part" is quite literal and not really symbolic. Not all the elements that are around today were around at the birth of the universe. Most elements that make up the human body can only be formed by the power inside stars. So basically everyone is a bunch of particles that at one time in the universe were in stars, and have probably been in and out of many stars. The atoms that make you up probably came from multiple stars at that. So basically everybody has at one time been a part of a star, we were always here its just that we weren't always human beings with minds to comprehend stuff. So I think this song is about how Christianity is just bullshit and when you die you go back once again to the universe from were we all origanlly came from. I think "Beyond Good and Evil" has a similiar theme with the "For every man and woman is a star" quote. And the both of the songs have pretty similar lyrical themes. |

Why no comments on this song yet, the lyrics to this song are awsome? Anyways I believe this song is about how religous people are always changing there stories or denying sience when ever something contradicts their ideas and how deep down they are filling doubts about their religon. "other forces kept at bay as you narrow the field of vision to retain a sense of control" This line is explaing how they will disbelieve sience or something else if it contradicts their believes so they still have the ability to belive their religon like people that don't belife in evolution and other scientific theories because they collide with their religous ideas. "Create a sense of purpose around which you base your faith" This line is pretty much just saying how religous people chose to believe in something so they can continue to belive in there religon to make them feel like there is meaning to there life. "The doubt that haunts your skin an itch that will linger on forever" This line explains how deep down they are having doubts about there belive but will never show them or aknoldge them so they can continue to feel important and like there is more to life. "Wave off critique as an offender" This line seems to be about how when anyone questions their belives they will get all defensive and say that they are trying to offend them and attack there religon. "How does it feel? to run out of nothing Where do you go? When you run out" The chorus I am not sure on but maybe its something like "Where do you go?" when everything is proven wrong and their is no longer any evidence to back the truth of their religon, when it's falsehood has been fully exposed. Anyways that was my first post on this website and it seems like I get the meaning of this song but I'm not sure what do you guys think? (Wow that was alot of typing I feel like I just did a school report or something) |
