Hey everyone, i need your help. Even though i understand the words of this song, i dont really get the meaning of it. What are your interpretations or ideas ?
I’m in the same boat. There’s clearly a lot of religious symbolism and guns are mentioned. Maybe it’s about gun violence and the hypocrisy of religious people who support gun rights? If that’s the case, I don’t really care for the lyrics much just my personal opinion. The song is great though in terms of the sound and feel
Matthew Gammon After giving it some thought, I totally agree with you. I just got into Caligula’s Horse so I drastically underestimated their intelligence by assuming they were talking about something so topical. I’ve listened to the album In Contact and can definitely conclude that they tend to stray a bit away from topical mainstream narratives and hit you with pretty profound and deep lyrics. Listening to it again I definitely can see some of the themes you’re bringing up, and it totally explains the “Maria” part.
The Ascent...is this a Graves spiritual sequel??? I want album now.
Since the release of the single I'm completely hooked to this song, it got me so hyped to the album!
The new album is awesome!
Woah, I hadn't noticed that intervallic motif. Awesome job guys! Things like that are so cool to hear throughout a song or album.
I love the song but I can't get it out of my head...it's been days guys...
Sam is friggin genius.
Album now please.
Or when it's done... Whatever comes first.

tooled68 Can you explain the name dropping of Maria? I don’t see any relevance.
