Im pretty sure these are right. I honestly have no idea what shes saying after "when the story begins..." but I believe everything else is correct. Got this from listening to the song, so its not the official lyrics or anything. Anyways, the songs about a person whos continually making bad choices in their life despite other people trying to help them. |

Definitely heard some Tool influence here! Absolutely love this song. The only part I find a little iffy is the very last line, I dont think it really fits with the song musically. But still, I cant wait for the album to be released! Anyways, heres what I think the song meangs: With the first part, I think he is saying that he feels like something/someone has taken his freedom from him ("You shut my mind / But oh well / Trapped and choked / Erased my trail") and it worries/frustrates him ("Vexation / Internal void") to the point where he doesnt see any hope (his dreams getting "darker and darker" With the chorus, I think he is saying whatever/whoever is holding him back is keeping him from doing anything with his life ("This life before me / Its blood runs so still"). The call of the bird could be referring to crows, which are usually used to symbolize death, and their song which "makes the hours go" could be him waiting for death, because he has no hope left. "The change inactive" could mean that no change has happened, and he doesnt think any change will occur. "Dim my lights /One by one / The sordid pale / Broken run" could be his hope (lights) being crushed (dimmed) over time, until there isnt much hope left and his attempts at running from whatever did this to him are unsuccessful. "Confined in escape / On burnt grass / Below the crest / Lier in wait for the ending" This could be how he tries to escape, but like the lines before he is unsuccessful, so he lays in wait for his demise. And the lines repeated afterwards seem to corroborate this. Im not sure if Im completely right, but thats what I get from the lyrics |

I think its about how the media thinks that if Manson was dead, the world would be a better place ("slit our wrists and send us to heaven / the first flower after the flood," with the flood referencing the Biblical flood that cleansed the earth of the sin of its time) The first few lines I think reference how people blindly listen to and believe the media about everything that happens. And most of the song is how everyone is going to die but some people will do more with their lives (and wont be "born to die") |

I think OnikJohn3 was correct, but I also think it can be looked at with another meaing. The chorus makes me think of how the media seems to ignore the good things that people do, and yet when something bad happens that's all they can talk about. I believe he's saying that if they (the media) think hes bad for his own believes, which go against the norm, then he (and his image/lyrics) will live on longer than people who are politically correct in every respect. ("we'll scar your minds") |
