| Thanks Wings of a Wolf for some decent insight... This song is really interesting, and it's meaning is difficult to interpret. It reminds me alot of the Dean Koontz novel "Seize the Night". If you read this novel, you'd know what I mean. It's all about a parallel universe that's ruled by the devil, and many of the lyrics above are derived from this story. There's a scientific project gone awry called "Mystery Train" that sends people into the future. However, they don't really go into the future, they go into a parallel universe that is like Hell with a devil and "All the animals are dead". The people come back with worms coming out of their body, hence "somebody raped my tapeworm abortion". Also, the title "Sucker Train Blues" sounds like a reference to the "Mystery Train" project and the worms that take over, or the suckers. The worms are planted by the devil, who shoots the worm seed at you. The worms eventually take over your body, and come out your eyes "Yeah and when I want to Yeah I will blind you". Because of these similarities and the references to Armaggedon and the devil, I'm fairly sure this is about "Seize the Night". It's a very cool book, and this song fits it almost perfectly. | |
