| Skyclad – Cancer Of The Heart Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I´ve always thought it was about either religion or love, although it´s not the most obvious song (Skyclad song never are)) Though from the chorus I´d hedge my bets on religion, the hypocrisy of killing for a God who says Thou shalt not kill. |

| Skyclad – Single Phial Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| It´s as Chard121 said, it´s about a genocidal time traveller who kills to make the world a better place, hence the referances to a pocket full of posies and a single phial. He unleashes a plague upon a population for whatever unfathomable postive reason. Then he falls in love, however the woman he loves naturally thinks he´s mad and refuses the antidote so dies along with everyone else. It´s based of a short film which is on youtube, Der Gartner I believe...which is why in the original version you can here german in the background. Like all the songs on the Answer Machine? it seems to refer to the viewpoint of one of many diverse persons. Great song though. | |
