Screaming souls and shades of doom
Bodies shine and blame for bloom
Everyone seems out of place
The public only stops to gaze
We’re only Japanese
Japanese Bodies
Sell your soul to your master
The body heat will flow faster
Everything will start to shrink
The brain will crumble just to think
The persuasion ability seems to be the only way men of power can get even more
powerful
More powerful
Thoughts of the last warrior
There can only be one carrier
Drinking water with deadly poison
Men accused for high treason
We’re only Japanese
Japanese Bodies
It would be good to make fan vids with alternative interpretations of this song. Like I have said in other comments, I thought it was about the Tokyo Sarin attacks by the Aum Shinrikyo cult. I think most of the lyrics seem applicable to a video with imagery based on that event.
Whats interesting is to compare this song that seems to be lamenting what happend to the Japanese with what the Japanese did to the Chinese during the Rape of Nanking ... maybe someone should do a Chinese Bodies song.
I think this song is about Hiroshima. Hence the nuclear explosion mushroom cloud behind him. Awesome song! proud that he is from i got born/live here in Århus, not so far from where i live neither! awesome.
I've seen Leatherstrip credit early Skinny Puppy (VIVISectVI) as an influence on his stuff.
New Beat got it's start from a Belgian DJ accidentally playing A Split Second song (Rigor Mortis maybe?) on slow speed and people loved it.
