This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Baptized with the perfect name
The doubting one by heart
Alone, without himself
War between him and the day
Need someone to blame
In the end, little he can do alone
You believe but what you see
You receive but what you give
Caress the one
The Never-Fading rain
In your heart
To tears of snow-white sorrow
Caress the one
The hiding amaranth
In a land of the daybreak
Apart from the wandering pack
In this brief flight of time
We reach for the ones, whoever dare
You believe but what you see
You receive but what you give
Caress the one
The Never-Fading rain
In your heart
To tears of snow-white sorrow
Caress the one
The hiding amaranth
In a land of the daybreak
Reaching, searching
For something untouched
Hearing voices of the Never-Fading calling
Caress the one
The Never-Fading rain
In your heart
To tears of snow-white sorrow
Caress the one
The hiding amaranth
In a land of the daybreak
The doubting one by heart
Alone, without himself
War between him and the day
Need someone to blame
In the end, little he can do alone
You believe but what you see
You receive but what you give
Caress the one
The Never-Fading rain
In your heart
To tears of snow-white sorrow
Caress the one
The hiding amaranth
In a land of the daybreak
Apart from the wandering pack
In this brief flight of time
We reach for the ones, whoever dare
You believe but what you see
You receive but what you give
Caress the one
The Never-Fading rain
In your heart
To tears of snow-white sorrow
Caress the one
The hiding amaranth
In a land of the daybreak
Reaching, searching
For something untouched
Hearing voices of the Never-Fading calling
Caress the one
The Never-Fading rain
In your heart
To tears of snow-white sorrow
Caress the one
The hiding amaranth
In a land of the daybreak

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
The name Lucifer actually means Son of Dawn in Hebrew.
Here's a quote from Wikipedia: "Lucifer is a Latin word meaning "light-bearer" (from lux, lucis, "light", and ferre, "to bear, bring"), a Roman astrological term for the "Morning Star" the planet Venus."
In truth, the name Lucifer was first used in the Bible, referring not to Satan or the Enemy, but to an honorific title of a Babylonian king of the time. This king was guilty of too much pride, which led to his downfall. Here' s the path from Wikipedia:
Ring any bells? Can you spot the similarities between this and the late medieval Christian idea of the "War in Heaven", where someone called Lucifer was cast down for being too proud?
Only in the late medieval period did Christian scholars take the name and the story of Lucifer, making it into a biblical story. This is around 1500 years after the death of Christ.
Sadly, this story (and others like it) are still being taught as the literal truth in schools and homes across the world. I'm personally saddened by the fact that the modern Christians cannot see that the majority of the stories in the Bible are highly symbolic (being 'borrowed' from other ancient religions) and are meant to teach the reader about the values of a good Christian.
Think about this point of view and then read the lyrics again in a different light (no pun intended). I hope this opens up some new avenues of though for you people, not only about the lyrics of this song, but also about taking the commonly believed (or enforced) "truth" without doing any individual thinking of your own. This is also - I believe - one of the subjects of this song's lyrics.
Perhaps the name "Lucifer" came into use in the late medieval period, but the story of war in Heaven and the Devil being cast out is from Revelation 12: 7 - 10. The book of Revelation was written in the first century after Christ.
applauds i love your closing statement! people are so quick to believe what they're told without being able to think for themselves. drives me insane when people can't see past their own narrow point of view or look at things objectively...
wow. so much for keeping the christians out of the damn loop. thats the last thing i wanted to get lectured about. good goddess.
