Lyrics
Pray For Nuclear War
Expressing a desire or call for a nuclear war.
We came alive every night for the dead
Describing a heightened sense of vitality during nightly activities for the deceased.
When the light aint as light as the lead
When the brightness is not as illuminating as heavy metal (lead).
You were sick sick sick of the prophecy
Expressing dissatisfaction or weariness with prophetic messages.
At least that’s what you said to me
Acknowledging a statement of dissatisfaction from someone else.
When you lined it up just right inside of your head
Perfect alignment of thoughts or plans within one's mind.
So go tell it to the gods who made you
Directing the dissatisfaction or message to the gods who created the speaker.
Pray for nuclear war
Reiterating the call or desire for a nuclear war through prayer.
Nobody down here wants to hear it anymore
People on Earth are no longer interested in hearing such messages.
Tear the words from the page you read when you said “we were better off dead”
Encouraging the removal of spoken or written words suggesting that life is better without them.
And you bore a hole in your flesh with a needle and thread
Engaging in self-destructive behavior, possibly as a response to negative thoughts.
“Well the sun doesn’t shine upon us”, said the fawn to Dionysus
Quoting a dialogue between a fawn and Dionysus, emphasizing the lack of sunlight.
As he poured the wine beside us in his bed
Depicting a scene where wine is poured beside the speaker in bed.
He said tell it to the gods who made you, pray for nuclear war
Repeating the directive to share dissatisfaction with the gods and pray for nuclear war.
Nobody down here wants to hear it anymore
Reiterating that people on Earth are uninterested in hearing such messages.
So go tell it to the gods who made you, pray for nuclear war
Continuing the call for prayer and dissatisfaction with the gods.
The gods you never had are all dying from laughing on the floor
Highlighting the non-existence of certain gods, implying they are nonexistent or ineffective.
So I’m praying for the gods who made you, pray for nuclear war
Continuing to pray for the gods who created the individual.
I’m praying for the gods who made you the way that you are
Expressing a desire for the gods to maintain the individual's current state or nature.
I’m praying for the gods who made you, pray for nuclear war
Repeating the call for prayer for a nuclear war and dissatisfaction with the gods.
I’m praying for the gods who made you the way that you are
Reiterating the desire for the gods to maintain the individual's current state or nature.
I’m praying for the gods who made you, pray for nuclear war
Continuing the call for prayer for a nuclear war and dissatisfaction with the gods.
I’m praying for the gods who made you the way that you are
Reiterating the desire for the gods to maintain the individual's current state or nature.
So I’m praying for the gods who made you
Continuing to pray for the gods who created the individual.
Praying for the gods who made you
Emphasizing the act of prayer for the gods who shaped the individual.
I’m praying for the gods who made you the way that you are
Reiterating the desire for the gods to maintain the individual's current state or nature.
