This song seems to me like sort of.. an abandonment of religion
"Dead the once feeling part of me"
Like he's going through a rough time, and turned to religion, but god wont have a physical or verbal response to it
"Father I know that you've witnessed a darkness in me"
He seems to be angry at god for not being an active physical part of life
"Your archaic deception numbs our empty beings"
"Countless the dead slaughtered in your name
Not a utter of your voice have you once repaid"
Like he just wants a response from god for reassurance, and as a justification of the amount of people that have been killed in his name
"No above no below just a man letting go
When all my earthly desire is disowned
No screaming sirens should sound
No revelations profound
Simply lowered into the ground
That's just what I'll, be dead in the dirt"
This verse seems to say that there's no heaven or hell, just him letting go of the concept of an afterlife
And instead of going to heaven or hell when he dies, he'll just be buried in the dirt
I think "Necropolis" is his vision of an afterlife, just a city of people buried.
And there's no heaven and hell as he's lost faith in religion because of god's "silence"
"O' lord, divine, please break this silence"
Sort of like he doesn't want to lose faith in god, but because of his "silence" and physical absence he's slowly losing faith
