If you research Maynards history, you will see his deep seeded hatred for the religious community. His mother dedicated her life to the church, and when she became sick, the church turned their back on her and didn't help. My interpretation of this song is of "Religion" itself. The lyrics:
" She'll suck you dry
And still you'll cry, to be back in her bosom
To do it again
She'll make you weep
And moan and cry, to be back in her bosom
To do it again"
Meaning: The church will suck your time, your money, your everything... You cry for God, and go back to the church, you go back to the religion crying for more.
"(Pray) Til I go blind
(Pray) Cause nobody ever survives
Prayin' to stay in your arms just until I can die a little longer
Saviours and saints, devils and heathens alike
She'll eat you alive"
Most religions push prayer as an answer or a guide. Pray, Til I go blind. You can pray and pray, and things will happen as they are anticipated. Pray until you go blind. (You are not curing yourself with prayer). "Pray, cause nobody ever survives." Like I said prior, your prayer will not save your life... no one survives off prayer alone. The church community "sucks" the people dry : "Saviors, Saints, Devils and Heathens Alike" is what is promoted by most churches that we are all sinners. If you have been to a church, there are people who present themselves as "Savior or Saint" and others that admit to their "devilish ways".
She (The Religion, the church) will eat (take your money, take your time, take who you are) you alive.
"My pulse has been rising
My temples are pounding
The pressure is so overwhelming and building
So steady now freddy; I'm ready to blow
What is she
What is she
What is she waiting for?"
What I would believe he is saying here is, that no matter what, you will always be ready to make that next step... and it will never happen. This is what I believe is the reference that their is no heaven, their is not step up.
