Low Heaven

I made a long ass interpretation of this song through Genius annotation, but i thought to share it there also.

So, to me, this song talks about autism. As an autistic person this song really speaks to me. This song in particular talks about the moment when you, for years, have neglected to be autistic or you hided this side to the world, but you have decided to reveal it.

Also, Markus Acher, in an interview for an italian website (https://www.kalporz.com/2005/06/intervista-a-markus-acher-13-god/) said that the main character of this song is a 13 year old kid and how he sees the world and he is not very happy about what he sees. This ties very well to the autism theory, since some people with autism are not very happy about the world in which they live in...

But now let's move on the lyrics.

The 1st chorus: "They're praying for their lucky stars to shoot". The first mentioned "they" indicates your best friends, the ones that, even after you revealed them this side of you that you have hidden for several years, they will still accept you. You for them, are a lucky star, and they pray that you shoot out this hidden side of you to the world and come out of the shell.

"We remain such gluttons for the generous threat of being supreme being safed or susceptible... Subject to a man mold maker with a tendency toward the more dramatic side of everything we are" Here Doseone is saying that if you want to expose our more susceptible side (i.e autism) to the world, this is a “generous threat”.

And the “man mold maker” that is referring hereinafter is probably an exploiter or an abusive partner. Since when you first reveal to the world that you are autistic after many years you have denied it, or neglected, and thus you reveal your more susceptible side, you will then encounter a lot of challenges, like toxic relationships, people that won’t take you seriously and employers that will exploit you. Revealing this side of yours to the public eye, as Doseone said, is referred as “generous” because, after you revealed that you are autistic to the world, you will get a lot of support from your friends and you will be happy, but at the same time its a “threat” because there are many profiteers or abusers that want to destroy your life.

"And what does modern child mistakenly chalkup To the humongous homogenous win column of god"

Probably a reference to Moloch, a canaanite deity associated with child sacrifice . In some illustrations (like this https://images.genius.com/12a55f87b56024f887a46c6576a7fbdd.319x477x1.jpg), he is represented as a giant column. And the “wins” that Adam is referring in this verse, are probably the other souls of children that were reclaimed by the deity in the past.

Now we ask ourselves: why a song about autism talks about such deity?

Well, according to a survey made by researches of Coventry and Newcastle (read this article, its in italian, use a translator https://www.wired.it/scienza/medicina/2017/05/30/autismo-tasso-suicidi-preoccupante/), the 66% of the 365 participants with a recent diagnosis of Asperger’s syndrome (or pervasive developmental disorder, related to autism) confirmed that they had thought about suicide, while 35% said they had planned or attempted to end their lives. Significantly higher rates than the general population (17%) and patients with psychosis (59%). So, the protagonist of this song, is making this observation about fellow autistic childs chalking themselves to this “column of God” with the only hope for ending their life.

The final chorus: "They're threatening their lucky stars to shoot": Doseone its reaffirming that once you’ve finally revealed this hidden side of you, life will become a more harder challenge.

But the phrase “lucky stars” was not replaced. Why this? Because no matter if your life will be hard, you’ve finally revelead your more vulnerable side after hiding it for several years, you are more free, and you can always count on support from your friends, your own personal “lucky stars”. They (in this case, the bad guys that you will encounter in your life) will try to threaten your “lucky stars” to shoot you, but they really love you. And so they will never do this.

This song makes me sad... From reading the lyrics I see it as fear kinda thing.. Scared of past errors.. A lot of the 13 & God lyrics makes me think about the general relationship between people and God..
