Man. I always thought this song was about genocide.
Then I started thinking it was about cruelty in the meat industry. Especially the last verse (goodbye, olive sky / I am crying all the time / there there, don't despair / we will find your sheep somewhere) -- I thought it may have been about how calves used for veal were taken away from their mothers so soon, and how traumatizing that is for them. I cried a lot. Then I heard Meat is Murder and became a vegetarian.
but don't think i'm mean or anything. you can buy a lot of meat from animals that have actually had a good life, and that's the kind of meat that tastes the best^^
@kiek I don't agree. But it's a personal choice & I'm no preacher. I'm glad that some people at least realize that supporting factory farming by buying/eating the sick stuff that they produce is a big mistake.
when i first bought no virginia, i thought she was saying "if they cum when they die then they taste better". ooh, risque. of course i feel kind of sheepish (pardon the pun) now, looking back on it.
i live in the area, and i found out about the show a whole three days after it. it was right after we moved and my dad was like "oh, that band you like was at the norva last weekend." and i was like *twitch*what?
omg thats just like when flyleaf came to my town! i didnt know about it till the next day! i asked my friend why everyone was all tired the next day and she goes 'everyone was at the flyleaf concert.' and im like 'omfg!!! why did i not know about this!?!?!?!' and the whole next week i was like 'rawr'
Yeah! they explained it haha because i have this song on my zune now and i wanted to know i think this is the show i got it from hmm maybe hhaha I LOVE IT ITS SO AMAZING!
