| I think you got it right, with him basically saying they're soul mates and all. So yea, I think he's saying their souls are intertwined, and she'll always be with him, even after death. | |

I know a lot of people hate when religion gets brought up in song meanings, but i think this one's obvious, at least the 2nd and 3rd verses. Besides, he was raised by and around strict hasidic jews. The 'concept' he speaks of is religion, maybe judism. He says we (people) bite at holy books, meaning we flock to them for answers. And then says if this (book) is your will and my testament, then sorry but i wont bow to what they bent. 'Bent' meaning, mankind changing what the Bible might have actually said when it was written. (And they most likely changed it during the countless translations its undergone) Then, he says 'Still I'm just a sperm begat from your [God] love, Basking in the bread, the blood of your dove.' Bread is what's used in communion to represent Jesus's body. The blood, meaning the blood of Jesus. Jesus is sometimes referred to/symbalized as a dove. 'Can I lie with you in your grave?' I think he's saying let me die and go to heaven. So he can look down, in 'our room,' through the 'window to hell,' (hell being earth) and witness shit-tons of murder (holocaust-like maybe? because he speaks of museums), and after all of it they go to heaven and are allowed in. Eff'd up! Anyways, thats my take. |
