So this has been.my favorite song of OTEP's since it came out in 2004, and I always thought it was a song about a child's narrative of suffering in an abusive Christian home. But now that I am revisiting the lyrics, I am seeing something totally new.
This song could be gospel of John but from the perspective of Jesus.
Jesus was NOT having a good time up to and during the crucifixion. Everyone in the known world at the time looked to him with fear, admiration or disgust and he was constantly being asked questions. He spoke in "verses, prophesies and curses". He had made an enemy of the state, and believed the world was increasingly wicked and fallen from grace, or that he was in the "mouth of madness".
The spine of atlas is the structure that allows the titan to hold the world up. Jesus challenged the state and in doing so became a celebrated resistance figure. It also made him public enemy #1.
All of this happened simply because he was doing his thing, not because of any agenda he had or strategy.
And then he gets scourged (storm of thorns)
There are some plot holes here but I think it's an interesting interpretation.
You pack your bag, you take control
You're moving into my heart and into my soul
Get out of my way, get out of my sight
I won't be walking on thin ice to get through the night
Hey, where's your work? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name
Hold on tight, you know she's a little bit dangerous
She's got what it takes to make ends meet
The eyes of a lover that hit like heat
You know she's a little bit dangerous
You turn around, so hot and dry
You're hiding under a halo, your mouth is alive
Get out of my way (get out of my way)
Get out of my sight (get out of my sight)
I'm not attracted to go, go deeper tonight
Hey, what's your word? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name
Hold on tight, you know she's a little bit dangerous
She's got what it takes to make ends meet
The eyes of a lover that hit like heat
You know she's a little bit dangerous
Oh, just a little bit dangerous
Hey, hey, hey, what's your word? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name
Hold on tight, you know she's a little bit dangerous
She's got what it takes to make ends meet
The eyes of a lover that hit like heat
You know she's a little bit dangerous
She's armed and she's extremely dangerous
She's got what it takes to make ends meet
The eyes of a lover that hit like heat
You know she's a little bit dangerous
Oh, just a little bit dangerous
Oh, oh, oh, hey, where's your work?
Mmm, what's your game?
I don't know your name
Hey, you
Oh, just a little bit dangerous
I don't know your name
You're moving into my heart and into my soul
Get out of my way, get out of my sight
I won't be walking on thin ice to get through the night
Hey, where's your work? What's your game?
I know your business but I don't know your name
Hold on tight, you know she's a little bit dangerous

You know she's a little bit dangerous
You turn around, so hot and dry
You're hiding under a halo, your mouth is alive
Get out of my way (get out of my way)
Get out of my sight (get out of my sight)
I'm not attracted to go, go deeper tonight
