"Poison Godmachine" -- what's it deal with lyrically?

[batmura]

Sounds like a very political song, what's it about? And what are some other political songs of Nevermore?

Thanks!

media, and how it manipulates people and runs their/our lives

I think...

i think its about how the whole Christian and "God" concept manipulates so many people. and of course, how it is a "poison".

 

[batmura]

Does Nevermore have any other 'political' songs?

NP: Bruce Dickinson - The Chemical Wedding

well, many people have different interpretations.

I thought it was GODMACHINE, the media, and POISON was what it fed us.

No problem, great avatar BTW.

It's fairly obvious what it's about...

"The media machine knows what to do, he knows how to feed the poison to you"

FEED meaning television and news, POISON being their lies and bias.

"Poison is a word, God is a word used for fear"
That's written in the lyrics.

Hey KOTNO,

I love Mezarkabul and am sort of friends with their drummer. I think their album Unspoken has a lot to offer to any Nevermore fan.

Errr, just about half of Nevermore songs are political

The other half are about drugs or religion.


Or terrorist robot people from the future
