Lyrics
I crushed the first two tablets of stone
I rejected the initial moral or ethical principles represented by the first two tablets of stone.
They didn't mean anything to me, the third was hewn
Those principles held no significance for me; however, the third tablet was crafted by a composed expert.
By an unfazed master, a gun pointed to his head
The artisan creating the third tablet was undisturbed, even with a threat (gun pointed to his head).
It was translated to Love Is Like A Lion's Tooth
The third tablet's content was transformed into the phrase "Love Is Like A Lion's Tooth."
Heave earth upon it
A command to cover the third tablet with earth, possibly denoting a symbolic burial.
The Crowley bust is painted with white tears
A depiction of the Crowley bust adorned with tears, while partisans gather in apprehension.
The partisans round up in fear
Partisans, likely followers or supporters, exhibit a mix of fear, with some concealing their true emotions.
Most of them weep, they laugh on the inside
Many weep openly, while concealing laughter internally.
The rest of them of laugh, they weep on the inside
Others outwardly laugh but harbor inner sorrow.
Heave earth upon it
Repetition of the command to cover the third tablet with earth.
The cicatrix of the tall man
Reference to the scars of a tall man, expelling his inner demons.
Ousting his devils
Putting away one's demons and suppressing the will.
Sheathe the will
Concealing one's determination or intention.
And a fire within
An internal fire or passion remains despite external suppression.
With burnt-out shadows
Presence of lingering shadows from past experiences.
Into the holocaust
A metaphorical journey into a catastrophic event or personal turmoil.
He embarks with nothing left
Setting forth into the unknown with only internal passion remaining.
But a fire within
Emphasizing the persistence of inner fire despite external circumstances.
I came down from the pedestal and crushed the stones
I descended from a high position and rejected the initial principles symbolized by the stones.
They didn't mean anything to me, I pointed my fingers
Similar to line 2, expressing indifference to the first two tablets, and instead, pointing fingers.
The third stone was ancient, I crushed that one too
The third stone, despite its ancient nature, was also dismissed or rejected.
Rumours say Love Is Like A Lion's Tooth
Reiteration of the transformed content of the third tablet, suggesting a recurring theme or realization.
