Chosen Twice
Embracing Controversy: Defying Labels and Embracing Freedom
Lyrics
Just who do we think that we are, anyway
Reflecting on the collective identity and self-perception of the group.
I leave it to you, Assume away
Leaving the interpretation to others, inviting assumptions about their identity.
It's Better to burn out - than fade away
Expressing a preference for an intense, impactful existence rather than a gradual decline.
We don't care, we don't care what they have to say
Rejecting concern for the opinions of others.
They calleth us Anti-Christ
Acknowledging the label of "Anti-Christ" imposed on them.
Cause we are evilized
Embracing a perception of being evil or corrupted.
they try to have us stoned
Facing opposition, possibly symbolized by attempts to stone them.
up from their mighty throne
Challenging authority figures represented by the mighty throne.
but can't they see the fun
Highlighting the enjoyment in their actions.
in it apparently not
Noticing a lack of understanding or acknowledgment from others.
but do we care a lot
Asserting indifference to the opinions of those who disapprove.
No no no!
Firmly rejecting any concern or remorse.
We've been accused of selling out too cheap
Accused of compromising principles or values for personal gain.
They look for the answers way too deep
Observing that others search for meaning or motives in their actions.
The king is dead - long live the king
Referencing a change in leadership, with continuity emphasized.
It don't mean, it don't mean, it don't mean a thing...
Emphasizing the insignificance or lack of meaning in the change.
They calleth us Anti-Christ
Reiterating the label of "Anti-Christ" and embracing it.
Cause we are evilized
Reaffirming their acceptance of being perceived as evil or corrupted.
they try to have us stoned
Facing resistance or condemnation, symbolized by attempts to stone them.
up from their mighty throne
Challenging authority figures seated on a powerful throne.
but can't they see the fun
Pointing out the enjoyment in their actions, seemingly unnoticed by others.
in it apparently not
Expressing a perceived lack of understanding or acknowledgment from others.
but do we care a lot
Affirming their indifference to the opinions of disapprovers.
No no no!
Firmly rejecting any concern or remorse, repeating the stance.
They calleth us Anti-Christ
Reiteration of the label "Anti-Christ" and acceptance of the associated perception.
Cause we are evilized
Reaffirming their identification with being evil or corrupted.
they try to have us stoned
Facing continued opposition or condemnation, symbolized by attempts to stone them.
up from their mighty throne
Challenging authority figures represented by the mighty throne, again.
but can't they see the fun
Highlighting the enjoyment in their actions, seemingly unnoticed or unappreciated.
in it apparently not
Expressing a perceived lack of understanding or acknowledgment from others.
but do we care a lot
Affirming their indifference to the opinions of disapprovers.
No no no!
Firmly rejecting any concern or remorse, repeating the stance.
