It almost sounds like a song from the point of view of someone looking onto someone who is is in grief or is facing a difficult stage in their life. The point of view seems to be that of God and Satan. The person seems to be at the cross roads. They must decide whether to face the issue themselves or run from it. Both God and Satan put in their 2 cents in. By the way I'm not religious, but I use God and Satan as a reference point. God: "From the heart of darkness - Darkness is a common analogy to depression, grief, or trying times. You call to me -In many circumstances such as in grieving or a hopeless situation even the non-religious people will call out to God. Spirit raging on - Raging can be used to describe several powerful emotions going on at one time. Anger, grief, confusion, hatred, etc. There is nothing I can do For you are next to no one" -Sometimes divine intervention can help. There are some things that only you can do. Satan: You will release your life - Suicide is brought on for the most part by hard times in people's lives. In many religions and philosophies suicide is taboo. Suicide results in one's soul going to Hell. - This is an option being presented, presumably by Satan as a solution to the problem being faced, Joining with the god damned world Of the dead and the lonely -Hell is often seen as a place as the dead go, however people who are socially isolated for any reason may be in their own hell as well. You'll never leave alive - Once you go down this path there is no returning. Now do you think you're too damn good For the killing kind - An "are you sure" question is being asked. This refers back to "You will release your life". It asks if you are ready to be counted among murderers and other vile souls. It also makes them question do they want to be counted among those kind of people. |
