eleanor of aquitaine: led troops to the Crusade and accompanied them, which makes sense considering this song is about Jesus & Christianity and innocence. In the Atlast this makes sense because it refers to the blood in the ground (soldiers), it fits for other reasons but thats a whole other matter. i think this makse the most sense in the context of the two songs. eleanor literally put the guns in these mens hands to gain back the Holy Land.
I think this song is questioning faith in general and if we would or should have faith in Jesus and what he did.
Love like Pi makes a lot of references to Jesus, Christianity, and the question of faith in their music, which is why I am in love with them.
this song talks about faith and innocence in today's society. The innocent man is Jesus, and she is praying to him (kneeling) but the man who is the speaker in this poem has turned away from her hope and faith. he questions why he is alive, and how can he accept Jesus as his savior when he cannot "kill an innocent" which is what happened to Jesus - he was an innocent who was crucified for his beliefs.
talking about her skirt and all of that - referring to her loss of innocence. thats the problem with today's society - we are all lost and confused and the "nation's pain" is its loss of innocence and complete lack of faith. he says we have failed our God because of this lack of faith, this lack of innocence in today's society. "would we have paid" is questioning if we would have died for every one else's sins just as Jesus did.
what@peaches1234 Wtf? this song is about a guy and a girl she is down on her knees clearly for sexual reasons in reference to a situation of temptation. Clearly the man is in a position of power over the girl as he states with the gun reference. It's not an actual gun it's a symbol of power to get her to perform sexual acts because she's a promiscuous person as stated by him saying he can see under skirt the nations pain all caked with dirt... but he realizes his power over her and doesn't want to destroy his innocence......

I mean from the first line it's understandable that it's a girl guy situations where the girl always wants the guy who she idolizes to stay... I wouldn't be surprised if it's an actual personal point of view from one of the band members... if you ever been in a band a good one, or messed around with females you'd know that girls throw themselves at band members, and that's probably what he is talking about, the 'nations pain' as a reference to the state of mind of the majority's lack of self esteem seeking acceptance, So overall it's about temptation, sin, idolization, innocence, and sexuality... With a lil Jesus spice thrown in to the mix for good fun.

Yeah I've noticed that they do refer a lot to Jesus "you killed your carpenter with nails"
