This song really blows me away, man. The lyrics seem to be of a transcendent nature. About the transition from life to death and then to something more. "And now that we've died [not so sure about the posted lyrics above], our souls will re-allign, a murder so divine" seems like its saying that in the now of love, death ceases to be a separating force and becomes something of a rapture. "Everything is fine." Eternal peace.
Also to think about, in the beginning of the song, he says "we laughed a thousand times, we died a thousand times." Maybe he's alluding to a moments of clarity brought about by such meaningful companionship that they crush you with the heaviness of death, and then bring you beyond it to something so brilliant and beautiful. Little glimpses of heaven so sublime and transcendent that you have to metaphorically die to observe.
"You remind me of someone I used to know." Seems like this is alluding to how if you died and all the piss and shit and lies that existed while you were alive were removed, you might not even recognize the person you thought you knew, even if you thought you knew them well. At least the sort of clarity that we seem to acheive at certain moments would become the rule and not the exception, and with this clarity we would see things so differently that the people we knew when we were alive would only remind us of "someone I used to know."
I guess.
I hope this band gets the popularity they deserve sooner or later, cause they really rock out in the best way possible.
