Atheistic God
Judgehydrogen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

where is our philosopher king?
no wise one to illuminate and
drive this headless vessel onward
our ageless wisdom serves us well
to seek endless indulgences
and to prostrate ourselves to might
I will refuse all my blood to bedevil you to my last breath
guide my hand and I will mock you guide my hand and I will violate you
give me my atheistic god
so I can taunt this mystery
and writhe like a woman in birth
we are hasty in belief




embracing this vulgar spirit
infecting minds with spurious strength

Overall Meaning

In the first verse of "Atheistic God," the lyrics question the absence of a philosopher king, someone wise and knowledgeable who could guide and lead humanity. This absence is portrayed as a headless vessel, signifying a lack of direction and purpose. The next line suggests that despite the absence of a wise leader, humanity has managed to rely on its ageless wisdom, implying that we have been able to navigate through life to some extent without a central authority.


The following lines focus on the indulgences and deference to power that have characterized human behavior. It speaks of seeking endless indulgences, suggesting a hedonistic pursuit of pleasure and gratification. Additionally, it mentions prostrating ourselves to might, indicating a willingness to submit and obey those who possess power and control. However, a shift occurs in the next line, where the singer claims their refusal to let their blood be corrupted until their last breath. This may symbolize a determination to resist societal pressures and remain true to their beliefs until the end.


The chorus of the song expresses a desire for an atheistic god, a concept that may seem contradictory since the term "god" generally implies a higher power or supernatural being. However, in this context, the phrase is likely used metaphorically to represent a guiding principle or ideology that opposes religious beliefs. The singer wants this atheistic god to be their source of rebellion and mockery, suggesting a rejection and defiance of traditional spiritual belief systems. By taunting the underlying mysteries and challenges of life and writhing like a woman in birth, the singer seeks to confront and challenge the often unquestioned assumptions and dogmas of religion.


The final lines highlight the hastiness of human belief, implying that we tend to embrace a vulgar spirit that infects our minds with false strength. This could represent a criticism of blind faith and the unquestioning acceptance of information without critical analysis. The mention of "spurious strength" suggests that this misguided belief system provides a false sense of power and control. Ultimately, the lyrics of "Atheistic God" seem to encapsulate a rebellious and skeptical perspective, urging listeners to question and challenge prevailing beliefs and dogmas.
