What a great song. This song, like more and more of Mudvayne's songs that I have researched, is shrouded in Hermetic symbolism. On the surface, this song is about what all of you are saying about religion and whatever.
On a completely different note, however, the song deals with what is known as the hidden sephira on the tree of life. I think that if they didn't let out that one scream of daath, no one would EVER be the wiser. But, since they stuck that in the particular line they put it in, truth, or the seeking of truth and knowledge, is an illusion. Like seeking the forbidden fruit, we are driven to find out how things work, why we're here, blah blah blah.
This hidden sephira, however, is a distraction from the real, undeniable truth that lies beyond. This truth cannot exist for us here, for once we reach that truth (kether), we no longer have reason for being here.
