When I first heard this song on the radio, I heard the "Amen, amen, amen" part and thought it might be a religious song. Then I heard the lyrics about "worship like a dog" and "sharpen your knife", etc., and realized the singer wasn't making a straightforward request to be taken to a church service. But I thought it was a metaphor for the singer being in a toxic relationship with a bad partner. After watching this, it sounds like I wasn't entirely wrong about that--but that the singer's toxic relationship was with the church itself! Quite a powerful song.

Even before I understood all the lyrics, it was very obvious that there was something unusual about the message the song wanted to send.

Same! Not in the same setting...but same reaction. Our reactions kinda prove something.....really good pop music should actually GO for it. Try something new. Be bold. Sound different. Stand out. It may fail. But when it DOES land.....boy does it land. And people notice. imo...it's not that modern music is "bad." OR that modern audiences are "bad." It's that modern music doesn't swing for the fences....enough/as much as it used to.

Just reading the lyrics at a surface level told me immediately that this was not an endorsement of the church in any way. “I’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies. I’ll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife.” This is the chorus; the part everyone is supposed to be able to join in on. That’s not even taking the time to consider the intimate relationship suggested by “that deathless death” (la petite mort), especially following the line “Worship in the bedroom.” The middle verse is innuendo from start to finish. It’s yet another example of mass (no pun intended) consumption of media by those who do not understand it. See Also: Rage Against the Machine.

i think you can read "offer me that deathless death" a couple of ways, to me it makes me think of the institution demanding that you devote your life to it in return for the promise of immortality when you die. the obviously nonsensical phrasing of deathless death is at the same time a very literal description of the promise, so it exposes the sad desperate absurdity of the idea

I take deathless death more as the promise of eternal life in heaven, you die but not really. The song Last Kiss with the lyrics “she’s gone to heaven so I’ve got to be good so I can see my baby when I leave this world” really come to mind. The church sells you this promise of death not really being the end but the beginning of a new “life” where all your loved ones are going to be there waiting to meet you in heaven if you’re good on earth. Definitely paired with the worship in the bedroom it can be read as “le petit death” but I think it’s more thought provoking to me to read it as another coercion tactic of the church to keep you amongst its flock. “If you leave, you won’t go to heaven, you won’t see your loved ones, etc, etc but if you stay with us you’ll never really die you’ll live on in the kingdom of heaven with your lost loved ones.” The thought of death not being the end, of loved ones reuniting is really comforting to some, they crave that reassurance and that makes it powerful.

What I love most about the switches between the time signatures in the first half was the weight it ended up pulling to the 4/4 verses. The 3/4 verses had a rapidity to them, and as soon as it slowed to accommodate the new 4/4 signature, the phrases in the meter were emphasized so much more.

There's a song by Hozier called Foreigner's God (also from the 1st album) that changes from 3/4 to 4/4 very often in the verse before setting to 4/4 in the prechorus and chorus. It makes the lyrics in those last two sections feel more important somehow.

There's nothing surprising about it. People don't listen fully to the words. Songs like "Every breath you take" end up in weddings - BTW, there's an even more jarring example in Poland, "Windą do nieba". You have "Born in the USA" mentioned in the video. In Poland, "Mury" have been used countless times to glorify some revolutionary trend - when the words actually show how the revolutions kill all nuance, including their origins... And so on, and so forth. As long as the main line or two seem to send some message, a few easy-to-hear keywords scattered in the lyrics support it and the music seems to agree... the song will be used as if it had that meaning, even if it actually has the opposite.

I was all set to get a new strategy, but this is… what I already do 😅 If I’m having a big struggle kind of day and I still need to get stuff done I will do timer tasks, with short, equal, alternating “work” and “rest” periods. If I feel motivated I’m allowed to put off the rest period, and if I finish the task before the end of the timer, I’m allowed to use that as extra rest time. It lets me switch tasks often so that I don’t get bored OR hyper-focused.
