This song doesn't have any religious or anti-religious propaganda. This song depicts us the reflections of a person under great pressure (probably torture) done by christian or sectarian authorities. It can be seen how this person claims for his death instead of begging for being saved; this person has been defeated at such a point that he don't want to live any longer. It's interesting to see how the great strain twists his mind, convincing him that he have something wrong, that his "inner strength" is just the prolongation of a deserved penance and that only death can give him forgiveness. |
