   I'm not sure what the song is about, but the kindly voice saying not to fear death and actually being Jim Jones is ominous. Not because its a bad or evil song, like the anonymous warlocks in the other posts here are chanting. Sit and spin on your superstition, please, Chachi.
   
   Anyway, it makes you think how a kindly voice like that doesn't always give good advice. Maybe we should live like we know how instead of letting some dingus tell us. Telling us to be afraid of life. Haha. Then really, what's the point?
   
   I feel this song so much. I know what its like to waste days. I know what its like to have that desire to go out into the light, and knowing night all too well.
   
   Art is always interpretive. There's no meaning but what you give it. The artist's intention doesn't matter.

   I like this song, its fun!
   But when I found out that the quiet voice at the start is none other than Jim Jones I started to wonder...
   Especially since the band name is Cults.
   
   In case you didn't know, Jim Jones was a California Baptist preacher, turned whacko!
   HELLO, if anyone ever tells you that you can worship them, walk away! No one in the Bible except God allows worship of themselves. Not Angels, not Apostles, NO ONE. God alone reserves worship for Himself.
   
   Anyway, he led many of his followers down to South America(Guyana) in the late 1970's, deceived them into believing that the government was out to get them and had them drink poisoned Kool Aid. No small thing as 909 people died! Many of whom were children! Which mean the really small ones were FORCED to drink it. and that equals murder!
   
   Sidenote, if someone ever jokes about "not drinking the kool aid", it's not funny.
   
   Back to the song, I have no problem with the lyrics until the last line, where it says "you get in the way".
   And at that point I'm wondering who they are speaking against?
   The band name and Jim's voice make me wonder...???
