A Light That Never Comes Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Apocalypse716

I'm going to get a lot of flak for this, but I think this is a Satanic song.

Try to see where this is coming from before you make assumptions.

-- "Lightning above and a fire below me" Jesus told followers that he beheld Satan 'as lightning fall from heaven.' A lightning bolt is a Satanic symbol. The fire is hell. What else would this line mean, anyway?

-- "When it rains, it pours" -- "When the floodgates open brace your shores" Satan is sometimes referred to as "rain man".

-- "You cannot catch me, cannot hold me" -- "You cannot stop, much less control me" The rest of the verse is things that Satan would say to believers.

-- "The nights go on / Waiting for a light that never comes" In an increasingly secular society, how should this line be interpreted? -- "I chase the sun / Waiting for a light that never comes" Sun worship. The entire song follows this doubting God theme.

-- "A king can only reign 'til instead -- There comes that day it's "off with his head"" Reference to God. Think songs like "Morte et Dabo" by Asking Alexandria

I know Chester said he believes in God, but the media has taken a very dark turn lately, and these sorts of lines come up fairly often nowadays, though sometimes more subtly than in this song. Please take this submission seriously.

My Interpretation

@Apocalypse716 That is simply the most far fetched explanation I have read :P

I guess we humans are able to connect things to anything else, irrelevant of their actual meaning.
