Heaven Shall Burn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In your world of plenty its so easy to preach love
Holier than thou, your order that shall rule
Yet, at the walls of your cathedrals poor sinners starve to death
Ungodly wastefulness and petrified profanity materialized in golden temples
Within the walls of Babylon profance believers follow their fateful leaders
Our world is arms
The time as come to bid farewell
Our true belief will rule
A pure commitment will blow away unreal constitution
Heaven Shall Burn's song Profane Believers is a critique of religious leaders who preach love and righteousness but do not practice what they preach. The lyrics are symbolic and speak about losing touch with reality, living in a world of plenty where it's easy to preach love but failing to do anything practical to help those in need. The religious leaders are portrayed as holier than thou, dictatorial, and unfeeling, and their cathedrals are seen as symbols of wealth and power that leave the poor and destitute outside their walls. The song suggests that these leaders are hypocrites who, through their "ungodly wastefulness and petrified profanity," have turned their religion into a materialistic and exclusive club where only the wealthy and powerful can be members.
The call for a new world order is the central theme of the song. The band argues that it's time to bid farewell to the current order, and a true belief will rule. The true belief suggested by the song is one that will blow away the unreal constitution and replace it with a pure commitment to helping the weak, the poor, and the marginalized. The song urges listeners to take action and not just be passive observers of the injustices around them. The final words, "Our true belief will rule, a pure commitment will blow away unreal constitution," call for a revolution in thinking and action.
