The Reckoning

Other than that Typo, good work.

my friend told me to get this song and from the minute i started listenin to it i cant stop... its a great song... another good one bye godhead--the cover of elenore rigby(the beatles) I just think that this group should be listened too by more people who just wanna hear good music not the garbage by the pop princesses.

This song means to me the Anti christ and they are against all other relegions...... (worship me)

Yeah this song seriosly rocks, i think i sorta know what the songs about. 'The Reckoning' is the thing after the resurection of Christ where God will judge every soul and decide whether to send them to hell or let them into heaven sooo......well the chorus is obviously about hell -

a hole where you will always be alone - well its hell isnt it, your gonna be alone forever

a world that doesn't care if you belong - no-one at all gives a damn about you down there

I'll push you off Of a throne that you erected for yourself - could be Satan saying your not gonna be your own boss anymore, your my slave now

OK but i think the actual song is basically saying God tells you all your life that you can come to heaven (Come on now, you know I won't hurt you Come on now, I'm here to protect you Come on now, I'll lead you to shelter ) but even if you do everything right, and make 1 tiny mistake, God will send you down to Hell the worst place imaginable (as described in the chorus). And basically you've dedicated your life to God and now your in hell. God damit that would piss you off a bit

I'll push you off Of a throne that you erected for yourself You will be tossed On the pile of all the filth that you created

The song isn't about how well you behave and still go to hell but about how humans abused their own power and how they'll pay for it

This song is obviously about God of the Bible.

This is an anti-religious anthem. The song is told from two perspectives. The first is god:

Come to me Kill for me Worship me Follow everything I do As you bow before me I'm the one they told you Would come again Let me show you all the signs To bring about the end

The second is a rebutle by the narrator. He threatens the creator with bringing him down to the level of his creations and forcing him to experience the existence they are forced to live everyday:

I'll take you down To a hole where you Will always be alone I'll turn you out On a world that doesn't Care if you belong

I'll push you off Of the throne that You erected for yourself You will be tossed On a pile of all the Filth that you created

The third verse is the creator mocking the narrator's failures and offering "protection" if he would only bow down:

I watched you take the power In your hands and Throw it all away I knew you would Fall down again someday

Come on now You know I won't hurt you Come on now I'm here to protect you Come on now I'll Lead you to shelter Come on now you know

The narrator rejects this defiantly with a repeat of the threat of the chorus.
