God's Gift (Maggot)

Interesting. The background vocals are from Friedrich Nietzsche's Antichrist (from the site I noted above):

"What is good? – All that heightens the feeling of power, the will to power, power itself in man

What is happiness? – The feeling that power increases – that a resistance is overcome. Not contentment, but more power. Not peace, but war. Virtue in the Renaissance style, virth, virtue free of moralic acid. The weak and ill-constituted shall perish: the first principle of our philanthropy"

I'm thinking maybe this song is about either Nietzcsche, Hitler or the Nazis in general.

What does this song mean to you? What doesn't it mean? the way he screams 'Gods Gives Maggots'... wet wet wet I have nothing to relate it to my life though, wish I did

theres a line before the first line posted there

I always assumed this was kind of a reality check for the religious - there's a somewhat used phrase "The Gift of God is Eternal Life" and I always assumed it was like - "Uh no what you get is Maggots when you die." I have no idea what this bit about the man on the plane is about tho :)

Now I see the rest of the lyrics

I think these are the real lyrics (from http://glitch6.blogspot.com/2011/04/gods-gift-maggot-lyrics.html)

(Feels good, it heightens the feeling of power, will to power, power it’s simply not)

To a life, less gleaming Forgotten is the morning dawn Learn to read with no degree Bloody lies and black sun (I’ll tell you why) In the eyes of God The sky’s the limit Proceeding in this darkest way Glowing back at the end - your halo You’re bloody righteous

Became a life broken, forever in judgment Of his righteousness

Absurd Man be afraid Falling back inane Over mature The chair backward falling down Knives in eyes Made us feel brave Fragile Falling another way

Really brave puts on a grin On the floor in a pool of blood On lifeless grin Back to the bedroom With a grin

When master knocks down phantoms Living out miseries It’s hard to fathom what depth man will go It’s hard to fathom, hard - talking my god God gave maggots God gave maggots God gave maggots God gave maggots

Eye sockets feed the faith, no less then back again Open wound in as much over-silence backwash God gave maggots God gave maggots God gave maggots

In a silent way, back to where they came

Description of a way Temple’s visit Ghostly remain No more room to blame Now they’re winning A conservation of life Prize work Prize work Is the un-doing Remains to show the failure of all

Bedroom Borrowed Solace Coyness is the easy road Describe magic Creation

(…belief in constant relationship of perish from birth springs full of our philanthropy)

Oh Sean, your life became mush God gift maggots

God gift maggot God gift maggot My friend maggot Life filled maggot
