| Death – Lack Of Comprehension Lyrics | 8 years ago |

This is a 'reflection' song. It speaks not about people who don't listen to metal, but about people who listen to it and don't understand it. The first verse is clearly an attitude of the classic metalhead when he encounters a confronting opinion from other group of people. It's not the problem that they don't understand it, but the problem is his need to cover up his weaknesses by putting others down in the category of ignorant. There is a whole tribe of kids and people who dwell saturated with unexplained guilt and pain, and who use metal to get a leverage to pull themselves up. They are literally drowning themselves, yet they still feel they stand on the high ground and have the right to think less of the others because others don't understand metal. Those kids are just using the complexity and progressivity of metal to get behind it and use that mask to pretend they are in some sort better than the others, because they understand it so they must have some emotional or mental quality they differs them from the others. They are so fuked up that they can't help igrabbing any straw, and even metal will do it. They are very transparent but their ego stands between them and the truth, and they will deny it until the end even in front of a spiritual mirror. This is not a song about the others, this is song about you. |

@[sokorny:20164] They meet unplanned on one of their satanic conferences. They just pass by each other on the stairs, and Hitler greets him, satisfied for his devoted satanic word. David recognizes him, and is surprised Hitler thinks they work for the same side. In fact he is surprised the man is still alive, but Hitler assures him that he is, and that in fact he never lost control of the situation. He just had to go undercover. David understands what's happening, smiles, shakes Hitler hand full of gratitude, and goes on doing his satanic work for years to come. At the end comes David's rhetorical self reassurance in the form of "...Oh, no, not me, I've never lost control", where he explains how he got into all of that. He was obviously young and foolish and he thought that he will manage to step out of it someday, but finally he admits he is one of them. He is doing the same work as aforementioned passerby was. |
