| Antichrist Superstar is a story about the worm rising to become the god-hating, irresponsible, Antichrist Superstar. Very autobiographical. I believe in this part of the story, coupled with Little Horn, the worm is beginning to reject all the bullshit that's being fed to him. The rules no longer apply in his mind, the religion's fallicies he now sees, all of it is bullshit and it's keeping him from being anything more than just a fucking worm. At the end, he finally fucking transforms, and the time has come for bitter things. | |

| i have to agree, this is lyrically and amazing song... i had never heard before that the age of 7 is considered innocent in christianity... thanks {heirophant}, i will look into this more... i did want to point out, that from my interpretation.... the number 7 is a reference to GOD. when a boy is still a worm, it's hard to learn the number 7... i take as, it's hard to understand what the real meaning of GOD is when you are younger, and innocent, and "brainwashed." | |

| The basic summary of this song is that you'll never be PERFECT (get to seven) as long as you believe in God blindly. The part about RAPE advocates how Christians can get away with things. | |

| He says the prick your finger part in this song 5 times and twice is Antichrist Superstar to make 7 in total. Most of the stuff on this cd equals 3 or 7 by the end. He sings "then I got my wings" once in Wormboy then twice in Kinderfeld to make 3. 3 and 7 are both very spiritual numbers. I think "the time has come for bitter things" means it's time to step up and face the challenges and stop being weak (a worm). | |
