2000 Years Of Human Error
Godhead Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But when you opened your mouth
Out came a family of flies
the book was already read
Could never help us from
Your conglomeration of lies
A never ending cycle of greed
Pass it down to each generation
Another flock of sheep to mislead
Scratch me harder
Till I bleed
God the father
Spreads his seed
Liars,Liars
You sell it all to me
Liars,Liars
I'm what you'll never be
And it feels so good when you've
Sold another plot in the sky
Like your teacher before you
Really know how to sell your life
Scratch me harder
Till I bleed
God the father
Spreads his seed
Liars,Liars
You sell it all to me
Liars,Liars
I'm what you'll never be
Give me something
Something real
Everything I see is nothing I can feel
Give me something
Something real
Everything I see is nothing I can feel
Liars,Liars
You sell it all to me
Liars,Liars
I'm what you'll never be
In "2000 Years Of Human Error" by Godhead, the lyrics suggest that the singer had trusted someone to tell them the truth, but instead they were met with lies and deceit. The image of a family of flies coming out of the liar's mouth reinforces the idea that the lies were numerous and disgusting. The singer mentions that the book was already read, indicating that they had searched for answers and guidance but were disappointed by the liar's inability to tell the truth. The cycle of greed mentioned in the lyrics suggests that deception has been passed down for generations, leading to a never-ending cycle of manipulation and control.
The phrase "Scratch me harder till I bleed" can be interpreted as the singer wanting some pain to validate their feelings. They want to feel something real, even if it involves being hurt. In contrast, "God the father spreads his seed" suggests that the religious rhetoric and ideas have been spread far and wide with the same amount of deception and manipulation. The singer acknowledges that they are being sold lies, but they cannot seem to resist them.
Overall, "2000 Years Of Human Error" by Godhead critiques religious and political leaders who manipulate and deceive their followers. The lyrics imply that the truth is hard to come by and that people blindly follow others without questioning their motives.

I thought you'd tell me the truth
I expected honesty from you
But when you opened your mouth
But instead, when you spoke
Out came a family of flies
Your words were filled with deceit
The book was already read
We already know the truth
Could never help us from
But it hasn't saved us
Your conglomeration of lies
From your collection of falsehoods
You probably believe what you told me
You may even believe your own lies
A never-ending cycle of greed
But it's all just to feed your own desires
Pass it down to each generation
To be inherited by the next
Another flock of sheep to mislead
To continue deceiving and leading astray
Scratch me harder
Cause me pain
Till I bleed
Until I'm wounded
God the father
An allusion to religious authority
Spreads his seed
Propagates his beliefs
Liars, Liars
Addressing the deceitful
You sell it all to me
You're trying to convince me of something false
I'm what you'll never be
But I won't fall for it
And it feels so good when you've
And it's satisfying when you've successfully
Sold another plot in the sky
Convinced someone to believe in your false promises of salvation
Like your teacher before you
In the same way as those who came before you
Really know how to sell your life
You're an expert at promoting your own agenda
Give me something
Provide me with
Something real
Something authentic and true
Everything I see is nothing I can feel
Everything I witness is unconvincing
Liars, Liars
Addressing the deceitful again
You sell it all to me
You're trying to deceive me again
Liars, Liars
Addressing the deceitful for a final time
I'm what you'll never be
But I won't be deceived
