Only song on the album not about WWI. Or if it is, its only in mentioning the progression of technology in warfare. Awesome songs, featuring the Outro of World Eater/the Intro to Cenotaph. |

There's tons of granite walls in different countries for different wars. Its a generalization. Die for the country, you get your name on a granite wall. |

Unlikely that its based on Stephen King at all, considering the entire album is based around the poetry of William Blake. Now, granted, some of King's influence could be from Blake, but it'd be two artists drawing from the same source of inspiration rather than each other. |

I always wondered if it was about the pyromaniac from King's "The stand" But its been so long since i read the book, i forgot a lot of the details. |

Incorrect. He said they dedicate the song to the cause of legalization of marijuana when they play it live. It is not explicitly what the song is about.
The song is clearly about nature falling to mankind. |

Didn't add this before, but this song appears to religious extremists...
"Detonate the human bomb", "Carnage from the scriptures", "Your peace kills by death", etc.
and the world's reaction to them...
"Mouths are spitting venom
Shocked senseless by the grief" |

A while back, i reversed the backwards english towards the end of the song. Its simply the "When the jews return to zion..." bit spoken softly and reversed. |

Schaffer likes to intermingle the parts from the '92 Dracula movie. Basically, in that one, they add a whole bit at the beginning of the movie about Dracula becoming a by vampire.
In that scene, he comes home to find his wife had committed suicide because she thought he was killed in the crusades. He asks the priest if she will be awaiting him in heaven, and the priest tells Dracula suicide is a mortal sin, and since she can't repent, she's eternally damned. He then curses god, and in doing so becomes a vampire. They also reference all this in the song Dracula from Horror Show, as you stated. |

A Few lines with wrong lyrics:
"Waiting wall of murder" should be "Wailing wall of murder.."
And "Motuhs are spitting venom" is, of course, a typo of "Mouths are spitting venom.." |
