"The louder the ring, the less the thing"
Hiding a lack of love/faithfulness behind an extravegant ring (marriage)
"When we see black clouds coming over our heads, over our heads, then we know where it's ending"
Makes me think of the way certain fundamentalists are predicting the rapture/etc., but avoiding day-to-day issues.
"A loaded gun hanging over our heads...We already know the way it ends."
More generally, if it is all ordained, then action is pointless, and people can justify their in-action or lack of responsability
