Sign Of The Times Lyrics

This is a sign of the times
Another mountain to climb
The sun burns as hot as the flame in the devil’s eyes
This is a sign of the times
Another mountain to climb
The sun burns as hot as the flame in the devil’s eyes

There’s chaos on the rise
The sky is raining knives
We have mistaken
The toll that is taken on you and I
You and I
You and I
You and I

There’s chaos on the rise
The sky is raining knives
We have mistaken
The toll that is taken on you and I

The oceans have gone dry
Venus is passing by
You and I
You and I
You and I

There’s chaos on the rise
The sky is raining knives
We have mistaken
The toll that is taken on you and I

I gave you what you need
I gave you what you need
You and
You and
You and
I gave what you need

We have mistaken
The toll that is taken on
We have mistaken
The toll that is taken on

I gave you what you need
I gave you what you need
I gave you what you need

I don’t understand why but it seems no one is coming to the same conclusion that I came too. In Roman mythology Venus is the goddess of love. This song is about a couple who’s relationship is falling apart. Almost as if the planet Venus had approached them in the beginning but at this point she’s passed them by. Love has left, Venus has left. All that about the sun and it getting hotter may be about them becoming more sexually attracted to each other but loosing their emotional connection causing it too seem as if knives are raining on them in the form of shouting or maybe even (not the interpretation I go with) domestic violence. The line “we have mistaken the toll it has taken on you and I” may be Adam realizing that Venus has left them because of all the arguing or that is what caused all the arguing but either way the relationship has fallen apart. “I give you what you need” may be simply him saying he can physically give her what she needs or that he had at one point given her what she needed emotionally at the time but maybe has since grown past needing it. I don’t know about that last part. For some reason people write this song off or interpret it as climate change for some reason?
