Could we have known/never would i/ helped to nail down / with nothign to gain
Here's the clincher/ this should be you
Now saturate/and touch/now saturate/the earth
Could we have known?: the sinner who realizes finally what Christ has done for him saying "if i had known that THIS was the cost, i would have never helped nail your hand to the cross."
Here's the clincher, this should be you, with nothing to gain: is the selflessness of his sacrifice. "here's the clincher, this hsould be you" is just a brutal reminder that YOU should be the one nailed to the cross, not the only innocent man to ever walk the earth
now saturate, and touch / the earth: a plea for the blood of Jesus to saturate and cover the earth
could we have known, never would i, helped to nail down (i'll stand for nothing less): now i'll stand for nothing less, no cause is as important as the cross of Jesus
With nothing to gain: ...regardless ofw hat it costs me or what the rewards are
here's the clincher, this should be you (made cold and crippled): (obvious)
NO corkey. Why can't we get past this shit? Chevelle is NOT a Christian band, they weren't even on a christian label, it was a record label backed by a christian company, but the label itself was not strictly christian

actual quote from Pete: "To us, it was and is, not that big of a deal. Our first label was owned by a distributorship that distributed to Christian bookstores and things like that.

actual quote from Pete: "To us, it was and is, not that big of a deal. Our first label was owned by a distributorship that distributed to Christian bookstores and things like that. And it doesn't bother us at all to be called a Christian band. Although we have made a specific point to keep our religion out of our band and out of our shows because we believe it is everybody's choice to go and do whatever they want. And though we do have our individual faiths and all those things, it is not something that we'll preach to the people out there. So there were never any misconceptions for us or for our label in that regards. It really was what everybody else was putting out there."
@jarbar but it does NOT mean that their songs have Christian messages, such as those interpreted by @Kruzen. The singer has said that this song is about claustrophobia and it doesn't really matter what your religion is, the feelings of fear, desperation, anxiety etc. don't discriminate based on faith.

Saying all that @Kruzen is entitled to their interpretation, after all the lyrics are still quite ambiguous, and music / art is open to the individuals beliefs, experiences and emotions.

I'm glad someone else got the real meaning of this song. Alot of Chevelle songs are Christian if you reread some of the lyrics.

@Kruzen nice insights, but pete loeffler said that the song is indeed about claustrophobia.
