Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Mortification's song Human Condition reflect on the current state of the world, highlighting issues such as wars, famine, diseases like AIDS, broken lives, drug offenses, and global misconceptions as reasons for mankind rotting away. The first verse conveys the idea of death and decay, and how there are so many ways in which we are hurting ourselves as a society. The second verse talks about the loss of independence through privatisation and the challenges of living in a cashless world. The third verse seemingly talks about the Antichrist, someone who will seem to solve the world crisis but will ultimately bring the lies of death.


The chorus repeats the phrase "Human condition," emphasizing that it is no superstition and that we are in desperate need of God. The bridge mentions "Lies, wars, hatred, Antichrist," which could refer to how these negative things are all interconnected and result in the human condition we find ourselves in.


The song concludes with the message that we should look to the Bible for answers and not accept false ideas or beliefs that could lead to our demise. The reference to the scripture suggests that the song is meant to convey a Christian worldview and how our faith can guide us through difficult times.
