	9:11

No Picture Mr. Always Mezm Average	#2 by Mr. Always Mezmerized (o)(o) at Apr 23, 1981 at 5:23 AM EST
	Those lyrics are a little screwed-up... these lyrics are from the Blaze version... - "Almost here" is now "Almost there" - "Screaming's hard to see..." is "It's meaning's hard to see" - "Photo's blown from glass" is "With borders blown from glass" - "The body never stops" is "The party never stops" The song is obviously about 9-11. More specifically, it disdains the widespread ignorance of the American people, who are happily complacent about everything outside of their borders, as well as the consequences of our overwhelming, "Love America or you're evil" nationalism. The song pretty much hits it on the head. Ever since 9-11, the American people have latched on to every word that GWB and his cabinet have said, whether it's "we deserve vengeance", "war for freedom", or the laughable rhetoric of his "Axis Of Evil" crap. We now see the world on two sides... you're either with Us or with Them. Wait - that's just like the Cold War if I'm not mistaken! First our big enemy was Communism, now Terrorism has replaced it (but unlike Communism, we have a LONG list of supporting and carrying out terrorist acts throughout the world). Such happens when your government is centered around an economy driven by perpetual war. But our incredible close-mindedness is dangerous. If you don't agree with everything our dictator says, you're an America-hater or worse, and are persecuted by your peers as such. God forbid there's proof that maybe AMERICA did something bad to instigate the attacks - no! We're Good and they're Evil! This is the thought process of the majority of Americans. Isn't it funny how childlike and simple the majority of America's perceptions about the world around them are? Anyone who's read about our typical foriegn policy around the world knows quite different. Basically Joey is saying that 9-11 was not just some random act of "anti-Americanism" and that there was definitely a motive behind the attacks other than the simplistic notions of "they just hate us, and we didn't do anything wrong" outlook that we Americans (predictably) took... hence, the "I know there's a message" lines. But the American people can't see the message because they're too blinded by rage and ideas of righteous vengeance. Another interesting note is how we're doing all of this in the name of God, which gives us more of a false security about our "noble" intentions for the world, hence the "Rallying one muscle under God" and the "God is with us now" lines. He asks us if we will continue to ignore the world around us, or use the opportunity to gain an understanding of the bigger picture, now that the "fences" are down. Sadly, we all know how this one turned out though, proven by our bombings of Afghanistan and our invasion of Iraq... descendent528 got it correct by saying that everyone has now aligned themselves with the majority opinion of the state, right or wrong, and that it may lead to a downfall. I should like to note that this sort of hive-mind mentality, and consensus on mass opinion and military action towards a mass external threat (anyone who may or may not harbor terrorists who may or may not destroy us in the night) is exactly the kind of behavior that the people of Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Military Japan displayed before/during WWII...

	is it just me, or does anyone else think its "the party never stops" instead of "body"? anyone?

	Yeah, it's about 9-11, but I keep thinking of the bullshit war on Iraq when I hear it. Can't turn CNN off, ya know? Peace
