Heathen (The Rays) Lyrics

Lyric discussion by meaningman 

Cover art for Heathen (The Rays) lyrics by David Bowie

This song seems like our future. the first verse sounds like our countires enclosed in domes because the pollution has gotten so bad. The second verse sounds like someone waiting for the anti-christ. The last verse sounds like the end of the world. Very deep stuff. Does David Have ESP? I suggest Britney Spears to have a listen.

@meaningman I Confirm.

@meaningman It's about the fear his spirituality has no basis, that there is no spiritual plane, no being, no actual meaning and the fear of death and nothingness. He talked about writing this song in an interview. He said he didn't want to write it, he hated writing it, that it was traumatic and upsetting but it poured out of him and he couldn't stop.
