| I forgot to add the meal part. Waiting for my meal could be referring to the Jews waiting to be rescued (liberators would bring food.) | |

| I saw this after I posed, I agree with you. I was unaware of Dragon teeth, but that makes sense too. | |

I think this song is about the Holocaust. "at the Belgian gates I'm waiting for my meal" The Belgian gates were used for defense against Germany in WW2. "moonlight on my floor shining through the roof" Wherever the person is, the place is falling apart for moonlight to shine through the roof. This person could be in hiding. "they got the city surrounded as if I needed proof" The Germans had the victory in Belgium in 1940. Therefore this part could be conveying the German military showing off their huge numbers by surrounding them. "when the world has turned paralyzed and wrong cold blooded claws never offer anything at all past the point of love shattered and untied waiting to pick up the pieces that make it out all right" The world is torn apart. Divided and fighting each other in great numbers and major nations. "past the point of love" WW2 is past the point of love for one another (arguable). The Holocaust is even more so. "lay my dragon's teeth and shallow water steel" I'm not convinced these two lines are right. |
