The Pantheon

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You'll be sorry for what you done
Them gods gonna hurt you son
When you play with a loaded gun
When you play with a loaded gun
They ain't gonna catch you when you fall
You'll be pleading while you're bleeding
They ain't gonna hear ya son
Don't care about what you done
They ain't gonna help you son
You'll be sorry for what you done
Be sorry for what you done
Old Pyth, cranky old bull
Make you sorry for what you done
Hense, in a black veil
Gonna prick you for what you done
Roathus got you empty
Got you weeping for what you done
I say mother, lonely old gal
Tear your heart out for what you done
Tear your heart out for what you done
They ain't gonna catch you when you fall
You'll be pleading while you're bleeding
Them gods gonna hurt you son
You'll be sorry for what you done
You'll be sorry for what you done
Thank you

The lyrics of The Pantheon depicts a warning against challenging the higher powers, the gods. The singer cautions the listener that the gods won't come to their rescue if they get into trouble, which would eventually lead them to feel remorseful and sorry for their mistakes. When someone plays with a loaded gun, it could be a metaphor for indulging in activities that lead to chaos and danger. The singer emphasizes that it's crucial to be mindful of one's actions to avoid getting hurt or face the wrath of the gods. The second half of the lyrics describes the punishment for people who ignored the warning and didn't stay on the right path. Each of the gods mentioned serves as a symbol of the fate that awaits those who defy the divine will.
One of the song's most distinctive features is the use of acoustic guitar to create a dark, eerie, and ominous atmosphere that matches the lyrics' tone. The song's unusual structure, with its instrumental passages and spoken-word parts, adds to the unsettling ambiance of the song. The lyrics provide a sense of foreboding and warning, keeping in line with the game's overall storytelling style. The song's sparse instrumentation allows the singer, Logan Cunningham, to deliver a powerful performance.

I know he composed this song and all, but it's not the same without that deep, gravelly voice
