Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nevertheless a god will call
Nevertheless the freaks will fall
And all that we've wanted is there at the door

Everlasting human home
Everlasting rise of Rome
Oh no, this fever could take down the world
Who has been stealing our feeling?
Some of us will fall, one of us will fool you, oh yeah
Fool you, oh yeah

Nevertheless we understand
Nevertheless we'll hold our hands
Our faceless machinery will reign over man

Everlasting unity
Perfect immunity
Oh, it's a wonderful, wonderful world

Who has been stealing our feeling?
Some of us will fall, one of us will fool you, oh yeah
Fool you, oh yeah

Nevertheless the fame will frown




Turn us to freaky clowns
See us in Disneylands faking the fun (the fun)

Overall Meaning

The Crash's song "Prophecy" presents a powerful message concerning the nature of humanity's greatest desires and fears. The lyrics begin by stating that, despite the destructive nature of modern society and the turmoil that often dominates the world, a god will call and humanity will eventually be forced to answer. Regardless of our individual beliefs, there will come a time when we must all stand before the divine and confront our own limitations and failings. Along with this, the song speaks to the sense of dread that often pervades our culture and the pessimistic worldview that many people hold. The "freaks" will fall and the very things that we have been striving for will be "at the door". In other words, the song suggests that even in the midst of chaos and uncertainty, we continue to push forward towards a better future.


The chorus of the song introduces the idea that there has been something stolen from us. Perhaps it is our own sense of purpose or our capacity for hope and happiness. Whatever it may be, some of us will fall into despair and others will be fooled into thinking that everything is okay. This sentiment is echoed in the final verse of the song when the lyrics state that even as we strive for greatness and seek to rise above the darkness around us, fame will eventually fade and we will be left feeling like "freaky clowns" faking the fun. The message of the song seems to be that, in the end, we are all struggling to find our place in the world and to make sense of the chaos that surrounds us.

Here is what the Lord says about Troy Black.

Ezekiel 13 KJV

1 And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

2 Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel that prophesy, and say thou unto them that prophesy out of their own hearts, Hear ye the word of the Lord;

3 Thus saith the Lord God; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!

4 O Israel, thy prophets are like the foxes in the deserts.

5 Ye have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the hedge for the house of Israel to stand in the battle in the day of the Lord.

6 They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The Lord saith: and the Lord hath not sent them: and they have made others to hope that they would confirm the word.

7 Have ye not seen a vain vision, and have ye not spoken a lying divination, whereas ye say, The Lord saith it; albeit I have not spoken?

8 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord God.

9 And mine hand shall be upon the prophets that see vanity, and that divine lies: they shall not be in the assembly of my people, neither shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the Lord God.

10 Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there was no peace; and one built up a wall, and, lo, others daubed it with untempered morter:

11 Say unto them which daub it with untempered morter, that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind shall rend it.

12 Lo, when the wall is fallen, shall it not be said unto you, Where is the daubing wherewith ye have daubed it?

13 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; I will even rend it with a stormy wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing shower in mine anger, and great hailstones in my fury to consume it.

14 So will I break down the wall that ye have daubed with untempered morter, and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered, and it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

15 Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and upon them that have daubed it with untempered morter, and will say unto you, The wall is no more, neither they that daubed it;

16 To wit, the prophets of Israel which prophesy concerning Jerusalem, and which see visions of peace for her, and there is no peace, saith the Lord God.

17 Likewise, thou son of man, set thy face against the daughters of thy people, which prophesy out of their own heart; and prophesy thou against them,

18 And say, Thus saith the Lord God; Woe to the women that sew pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you?

19 And will ye pollute me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people that hear your lies?

20 Wherefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly.

21 Your kerchiefs also will I tear, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

22 Because with lies ye have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, by promising him life:

23 Therefore ye shall see no more vanity, nor divine divinations: for I will deliver my people out of your hand: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

What I got from this was all the soldiers that fought and lost their lives in wars for people after them and us could have freedom and rights, they fought against the enemy ,and people now just giving away their freedom to the enemy so they could go to their little jobs and shops etc , these leaders today disregarded even the veterans still alive today, it’s like they spit all over them, we don’t just give up our freedom, we Trust in Jesus work on the cross, I personally and many Christians wouldn’t treat the work of the cross in that way, something tragic is coming to those that don’t know this, hopefully many will realise and come to the finished work of the cross

@L A This is Troy absolutely... Deuteronomy 18:20-22 :
But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in my name that I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.’ And if you say in your heart, ‘How may we know the word that the Lord has not spoken?’— when a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the word does not come to pass or come true, that is a word that the Lord has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You need not be afraid of him.

The crash, McTavish hit the wall, and the car spun and the engine was ripped off. But McTavish was still in the car. Right after that, another car came along and smashed into his car. That's what took McTavish's life. This tells me to watch out for a one-two punch that's coming. Don't get blindsided when it happens.
