Can't Stand It Lyrics

This song (to me) has a lot of references that could refer to a post-rapture world.

The main one of course is "prayers will never be answered again."

But the whole first verse makes a lot of sense.

"Phones still ring and singers sing; speakers are speaking in code."

That to me sounds like it seems as though life is still going on normally, but something is amiss (speaking in code).

And the chorus sounds exactly like post-rapture.

I dunno ... just an idea.
