This one is hard to pick apart, but i see imagery of both war (as in "the" war -- Iraq), and heaven/death.

This whole record seems to carry a lot of political imagery, so the idea that he is alluding to the war seems plausible.

Damn would I love to have a beer with this man and pick his brain for an evening. Embrace this one, he's a treasure.
