Choke Sermon

Amazing song.

its about the government biding time, soldiers killing, and silence of (special forces like marines, navy seals watev.) soldiers, bush covering for sr.(cover tracks, double back) and the beginning"sermon sung me slow to sleep, faster if i had a choice" is a soldier dying and the sermon he says is a prayer before death

ok, i have no clue how u get that out of this song. i'd have to say not even close.

I think it's about religions like Christianity fading out and how I used to be slot more popular

What i got was that today most people like to think there god and that most people don't speak the truth just to make themselves look good in the eyes of others

Jesus wants us to proclaim His name before we're dead and it's too late.

Remember Omerta: "free speech for the living/ dead men tell no tales."

Sermon sung me slow to sleep Faster if I had a choice

Meaning: Jesus experienced a slow and painful death on the cross.

With every breath another death Still so in love with your own voice

Meaning: Jesus is God in human form, and every breath on the cross is extremely painful. Mankind killed Him with our sins (including our lies, or our VOICES).

Idle threats to hide regrets Excuses serve to bide the time

Meaning: Mankind's lies killed Jesus. Remember lying is a sin.

Cover tracks, double back We summon silence so divine

Meaning: We are all one body in Christ, so we really sealed our own fate when we killed Christ with our sins. Now we have to die in order for God's love to redeem us.

Greeted with a thundering absence of applause

Meaning: When Jesus was dying on the cross, the crowd of people was shouting and cursing at Him.

Choke on your own words Lies are venom in your veins Burn from the inside And never speak my name

Meaning: Jesus' choking death is our choking death. Jesus is in us all, because He loves us. However, we are sinners. We are dying because of our own lies (sins). We will die. After we die, we will never speak Jesus' name, so it will be too late to spread His word.

Jesus complex, gag reflex Trigger happy redundancy

Meaning: We all killed Jesus with our sins. Each sin is like pulling a trigger aimed at Jesus. We are all guilty.

No thrill, no chase, no saving grace Hypnotic in monotony

Meaning: Mary the mother of God is the only person who achieved saving grace in her assumption into heaven (body AND soul). As for the rest of us, we are pathetic sinners who are "hypnotic in monotony." At least God still loves us.

Loaded with a salt rock shot You say you're everything you're not

Meaning: Every sin shoots Jesus with a symbolic salt rock, killing Him slowly and stinging His wounds. His death on the cross is all of our faults, because we are all sinners.

What might have been is all you've got From here and now you're dead to me

Meaning: It didn't have to be this way, but because we've sinned, Jesus has to die on the cross. Now we have to take up our crosses and follow Him if we hope to be saved.

Greeted with a thunderous absence of applause

Meaning: All the people shouting and cursing at Him when he's dying on the cross.

Choke on your own words Lies are venom in your veins Burn from the inside And never speak my name

Meaning: Again, Jesus' choking death is our choking death. Jesus is in us all, because He loves us. However, we are all sinners. We are dying because of our own lies, or sins. We will die. After we die, we will never speak Jesus' name, so it will be too late to spread His word.

Nothing will ever erase Or undo your disgrace

Meaning: Unlike Mary, who is full of grace, we are all full of disgrace.

A lonely self-embrace They've long forgotten you

Meaning: Remember we're all one body in Christ. Jesus' arms were spread out when He was dying on the cross, almost like an embrace. No one embraced Him back. We all killed Him with our sins. However, we are all a special part of Jesus, so His lonely self-embrace is our lonely self-embrace.

Still cling to what it was A lost and hopeless cause

Meaning: Jesus had to fight through the pain even though it seemed hopeless. He was God, but He was in human form. He had fear and doubt just like any one of us. It all seemed hopeless to Him, but He fought on anyway. By following Him, we have to "cling" to this "hopeless cause" as well.

Forever mourning your loss They've long forgotten you

Meaning: Jesus' teachings didn't start spreading around the world until after His death and resurrection. Even then, people still sinned and will always sin. We have all lost touch with God's plan. We need to realize that we are all part of God. Forgetting God is actually forgetting our own purpose in life.

Murdered slowly in minute increments of time Pissing up a rope Another moment passes by

Meaning: Just like Jesus died slowly, we are all dying slowly in some way. Jesus is in all of us, and we are in Him. We are His body, and He loves us.

Choke on your own words Lies are venom in your veins Burn from the inside And never speak my name

Meaning: Once again, Jesus' choking death is our choking death. Jesus is in us all, because He loves us. However, we are all sinners. We are dying because of our own lies, or sins. We will die. After we die, we will never speak Jesus' name, so it will be too late to spread His word.
