@[Ninjachibi117:5445] I find it hard to believe that you really don't think any of their songs are about faith or God if you have spent much time listening to them, especially their most recent Blurryface album. Each album has songs about faith. I do agree that this song is more ambiguous than others, and I think your interpretation is interesting. I do think that this song is about Tyler's faith, but I agree that it is written in a way that incorporates depression and maybe it does even parallel a suicidal state of being. Back to the faith in their songs thing. I agree that pretty much none of their songs are "feel-good shit" faith based in the way that a worship album may be, but in my opinion they are about God. With an open mind, re-listen to"Illicit Demand for Proof", "Addict with a Pen", "March to the Sea", "Doubt", "Polarize", Not Today", "Goner". I even think that there are references to a faith based struggle with depression in a lot more of their songs, but these are the ones that I think focus more around the theme of wondering where God is in the midst of depression or acknowledging that God exists and trying to reconcile that to whatever the author is feeling. I say all this as my opinion, so please don't be offended. I do feel strongly about their lyrics though, as I am a Christian and I have experienced the suicide of my mother about 3 years ago. So I find their lyrics very poignant to the way that I find myself feeling towards God or what have you. I would be glad to expand upon why I think some of those songs are about Christianity if you are interested in my opinion. |
