I'm not religious per se, but I thought I understood the meaning to this song the first time I heard it. I was stoned and depressed a little...it was freakin weird! :P
God...so peaceful, so capturing, so tranquil) reflective in a sweet suburban sky. I'm going to miss you if You're not here to help me (especially when the evening light burns to become the dark of the night where emotions are the most sensitive
And curse at You if things don't go our way...so come people, wash your face
And purify your soul with Holy water 'cause only time will tell
When you'll be willing to sell ((not if) signifying that God is forgiving) and understands all men and women act upon their temptations at least once.
Your body (which is your temple...hence the protective casing of your soul, of your life) for one precious taste of all that you shouldn't (like Adam)
Then everything is lost...or is it?
God...so peaceful, so capturing, so tranquil)
Doctors understand the feeling of God and the reality, tranquillity and coldness of death; they understand what we must do to avoid causing harm to ourselves and the environment as they witness the repercussions of our actions on the operating table
But we continue to compromise, to make excuses, but when doom day comes, you won’t have an alibi to God as all your cards are on the table.
And at that time, there isn't any holy water to rid your soul of your sins, to educate your eyes to seek purity as the eyes are the windows to the soul.
God...so peaceful, so capturing, so tranquil) reflective in a sweet suburban sky.
So when you are finally on your death bed
Which is closer than ever before in the days that we live, you still won't feel sorry for your actions (you won't call it a crime). But instead, you'll defend/justify them saying that this is life, this is how I wanted to live it, this was how I was meant to live my life.
And in the second coming, well maybe you'll already be dead by the time that occurs.
And both the Angels and the youth of tomorrow they won't thank the youth of today for what we have achieved for what really have we achieved...more spirituality?
But where scared, fearful, ignorant BUT that's no excuse.
Because when doomsday comes and there's no where left to hide
The people of God's heaven may call it genocide...the purification of the human race...of God's race...of ‘Us’.
