In My Grave Lyrics
good song, thats all there is to it.
good song, thats all there is to it.
Basically, the song's about deat (obviously). It discusses that all the things people do throughout their lives is useless once you die. (the second verse is very evident of this)
MONEY IS WORTHLESS WHEN YER DEAD! and social status, that's what it's talking about!
To be specific, the song isn't just saying that the money you've made is worthless when you die. It's saying that the money you've given to the church, and all the "christian morals" that you've followed to get into heaven don't do you a damn bit of good. You wasted all that time, effort, and money trying to get into heaven when you could have given yourself a more enjoyable life instead.

This is why in the background at about 1:35 you can hear somebody say "God is dead!" And why they talk about the "promise of heaven" and the "threat of hell" in the first verse, and why they say that "nobody is saved" and it's all "gone down the drain" in the third verse.

Haha they play a riff from Raining Blood at 1:31
^lol just noticed that now
Yeah I noticed that too.
the trade center is bombed and the FBI is pissed so they act the good americans, blaming muslim terrorists
I'm sure they're referring to when the car was drove in the WTC in the 90s. But still, considering this was realeased in 1999, thats a pretty telling lyric.
"God is dead!"
Obviously it's talking about death.
More specifically the song talks about how the church (or various Christian denominational churches) teach that you must follow a certain set of morals in order to avoid Hell and go to Heaven. And how these churches coerce their members into giving them substantial sums of money as well...
But when you die, all the effort and money that you gave so that you could get to heaven ends up being completely worthless. When it's all said and done, you ended up giving all that money and avoiding premarital sex for nothing. God doesn't shepherd you into heaven for doing it, you simply die and it all just "goes down the drain."
