Lyric discussion by persona 

Cover art for Curse Your Branches lyrics by David Bazan

This song certainly seems about fate and faith. As a recent deconvert myself, this song resonates with me intensely. I don't believe in the Christian God anymore, but I still find myself angry at him sometimes. If he wanted me to love him, why let me fall?

The only part of this song I have real trouble understanding is this verse:

When I sleep, I'm usually dreaming But more and more, it's only one Where every hired gun I've ever fired Is making love to you while I look on

Does anyone have any interpretation of this?

@persona I think he unexpectedly fell in love with someone and is jealous.
