To me it's about the singer encouraging his lover to keep integrity to her core beliefs and her love despite disapproval from her family and old values. Resolving to leave God.
1st Stanza: The couple's magnetic devotion and attraction to each other
2nd: 'Don't Lie, I want him to know'
Openly reject those that condemn you, don't be ashamed of the life you live, don't be prey to guilt
Gods' loves die young
Is he ready to go?
It's the last time running through snow
Where the vaults are full and the fire's bold
This could be completely wrong but it reminds me of concentration camps, Jews being God's loves. Or Hellfire. The couple is honest and resolute despite the promise of burning in hell. Even if they were pious like the Jews, they were burned, everybody still dies in the end.
Young turks
Young saturday night
Young hips shouldn't break on this ice
Old flames - they can't warm you tonight
So keep it cool, my baby
Isreal and Palestine come to mind. She is Jewish hanging out with Turks on the Sabbath and starting to feel like she's betraying who she was. But he reassures her, sharing this life peacefully is the only thing that's important.
I want to know - does it bother you?
The low click of a ticking clock
There's a lifetime right in front of you
And everyone I know
She is anxious at the thought of death. He reassures her that she is still young.
Dial up, three rings and return him his gold
The prospect that you could still live and happily after death is the greatest obstacle to overcome in leaving God behind.
There's a headstone right in front of you
And everyone I know
Everybody dies.
