@[deftly:35445] What a cunt your boyfriend is. As a person who's been suffering with generalized anxiety and clinical depression on a daily basis for 7 years - it is very much real. |

@[Lord_nephthys:28771] Jon Nodtveidt was fighting against evil. Against the evil of matter, and against the evil demiurge that entrapped us in that hell on Earth. To him Satan is one of the eleven gods who shall destroy the cosmos and free our souls back into the primordial chaos. I don't know much about that topic but yeah, he wasn't necessarily evil. |

Religion is the obvious one? Missionaries that travel across the world to spread the word of god etc. They feed on the misery of the others, they feed on guilt. |

| Meshuggah – New Millenium Cyanide Christ Lyrics

Yeah I know what Haake has said in an interview about this song, but I also think it's pretty clear it's about transhumanism as well. People tend to think they are going to live forever and the new technologies are going to help them "elevate... to a higher new form". Which is bullshit of course, and even if it's possible, it's not worth it.
You can tell from the tone of the lyrics how bizarre and absurd that idea is. |

@[FC:19459] Exactly. And even if there are songs about love, they don't mean shit, cause they were written by someone who was paid to do it, and felt nothing writing them. Fook the music industry! |

@[mitsukai_zero:16241] Exactly! I recently wrote a song like that, a conversation between me and God, and my search for Him. |

@[Viro:15030] Christianity doesn't deny free will, it's the opposite, I mean... it's up to you to decide how you're going to live your life, but of course, it's something like a warning what will happen if you do. But I see no problem since there's nothing that's really worth it that has been "forbidden" by Jesus. Pop-culture wants you to believe there's no meaning to life so they can take advantage of you, making you a consumer, a slave to the material world. They're afraid of us, cause we need nothing except God. These are people driven by pure evil. |

@[EnduringChill:13792] Yeah, but it doesn't really matter if you're clinically depressed or not (and btw, I am), life's still a bitch. This time will pass, our time will pass. We're all going to die one day. What about being stuck in life, and "getting out of the moment" is actually going to Heaven? What if he's saying that no matter how bad our lives are at the moment, eventually we'll all be saved and go to a better place when we die? |

I bet it's about drug abuse because of depression.
It may be about drugs like heroin, but it is more likely to be about benzodiazepines, because they make you feel numb and apathetic - hence the lyrics "My apathy got the best of me" and "Everything that I put inside just to feel numb".
Benzo addiction is pure hell... |

What about turning to drugs or antidepressants, for example, just to silence the pain inside? When you're so fucking tired to struggle with this depression, and you don't feel like yourself, and you lose all the things you once cared for... So you accept that nothing will or can be solved and decide to silence all the problems, becoming numb to them, because you see no other way. |

It could be about suicide, but it could be about hitting the bottom, finally finding motivation and deciding to change your life and the patterns you live by. Mark sounds really pissed off, expressing his anger, so I think it's about radically changing your life for better. |

| Ian Brown – Keep What Ya Got Lyrics

Erich Fromm does have a pretty good explanation about that thing with the material world and Christianity. The absolute perfection would be to be absolutely independent, but well.. who can do that, except Jesus. That doesn't mean we don't have to try, but sometimes the end justifies the means (this is my opinion), e.g. if you have the money and popularity you can use them to raise attention to some problems.
And yeah, I think that Ian Brown had the same thing in mind (like you) when he wrote the lyrics for the song.
