I like all the different thoughts here. If 10 people listen to these lyrics and hear 10 different things, Acid Bath has succeeded in creating art. If 10 people hear the lyrics and everyone thinks it means the same thing, it is not art; it is a commercial.
The reasons I suggest this may not be about abortion are both based on the song title: The Mortician's Flame.
1.) Morticians do not handle the remains of voluntarily aborted fetuses. There is no funeral. To mention a mortician is to imply a funeral service and mourning.
2.) When do morticians use a flame? For cremation of bodies. Aborted fetuses are not formally cremated but disposed of as biohazardous material. The remains are eventually incinerated, this is true. (I am a mortician; I know this.)
Everybody keep listening, and thinking, and having different opinions. Keep going and democracy may survive! Don't be afraid to argue!
