Who are they
Are they a threat to our beliefs
So we descend upon them
Just like vengeful wolves
Bitter daylight
Hangs above us with the rain
What is this that tells you
I am right or wrong
I'm not saying...
Are they a threat to our beliefs
So we descend upon them
Just like vengeful wolves
Hangs above us with the rain
What is this that tells you
I am right or wrong

I believe this song is not about people in particular, but is about certain situations such as difficult times, where we're questioning serious things or are in uncertainty, as a betrayal of someone special, or when a problem came out of nowhere, when we least expect it. "So we descend upon them just oike vengeful wolves." - Is to act by instinct. To "fight" against these situations we often become aggressive, and take destructive measures to keep us carrying on. In the last verses, I think it's a reference to regret and/or the constant insecurity of living through it. What ensures that the decisions made were right or wrong? What ensures that, from now on, everything will be better? ''I'm not saying." - Honestly... I see it as a self-defense mechanism; something to soften those feelings, like "I'm not saying everything is already lost."
Not sure if these are right, I did my best. Anyone have any suggestions give me a nudge.
I think the first bit goes:
who are they are they a threat to our beliefs so we descend upon them just like vengeful wolves
this song makes me orgasm
Holy shit. Wolves. This song is brilliant. Dissociative music wins.
When I listen to it I hear "Who are they, to threaten our beliefs" I can see how it could go the other way too.
To me this is a song written from the standpoint of narrow minded people, bigots if you like, who do not want their beliefs challenged. They attack anyone who might challenge what they hold to be true. Not sure what the last line alludes to, perhaps the irrational reasoning people give to their terrible actions
Strange. I always through the lyrics went
Who are they? Adding a thread to our beliefs...
It's probably impossible to distinguish between the two with any certainty... great song, too...
