Cover art for Crucifix Kiss lyrics by Manic Street Preachers

Just completely anti organised religion. that's about it altho it focuses of christianity. Richey spoke about being taken to church and how all it was was some woman standing up there and telling you how worthless u were. The song is just about how ridiculous certain religious ideas are how it can hold us back and be used to control people so they are easier to handle e.g. 'Allow your leaders to control you/ questions are now blasphemy'. Telling to ppl to use up the whole of this life in worship just on the hope there will be an afterlife and they'll go to heaven 'believe in tomorrow and not today'. And just the stupidity of certain forms of worship 'why walk when you can crawl. Stay on your knees and kiss my feet' when put like that organised religion doesn't make so much sense.
