about

This track is about bigotry, prejudice and fanaticism. It compares Bin Laden to less notorious and less dangerous individuals whose line of thinking is as radical and excluding, irrespective of their faith. The message of the song is that there are radical people everywhere in the world, but perhaps some of them have power and others don’t.

This is about how little tolerance most ideologies have vis-à-vis those who think differently. These lyrics are different from the previous ones in a way that everyone can make their own analysis of what it could refer to.

lyrics

Verse 1:
Did you hear of the wonder, the man who healed the blind?
Do you feel the urge inside tonight?
Does it make you wonder? Was it real or was it the mind that tricked the spirit? Two of a kind

Chorus:
He’s gone miles away and you still mourn every year.
Is it what you believe or is it the guilt inside?
Are you relieved to know there’s blood on the other side? Do you believe?

Verse 2:
Once upon a time, in a land east of nowhere, there was a man who preached a crime.
Justified his orders by refuting his opponents. Hmmm, two of a kind.

Chorus:
He’s gone miles away and you still mourn every year.
Is it what you believe or is it the guilt inside?
Are you relieved to know there’s blood on the other side? Do you believe? Do you believe?
Overture:
What you believe in, is how you lead your life. The moment you fly, you feel the torment, you cry. And I’ll just watch you die.

Chorus:
He’s gone miles away and you still mourn every year.
Is it what you believe or is it the guilt inside?
Are you relieved to know there’s blood on the other side? Do you believe?

Verse 3:
Twice upon a time, in two corners of the world, there were men who preached their crimes. They justified their orders and refuted their opponents. Two of a kind.

Chorus:
He’s gone miles away and you still mourn every year.
Is it what you believe or is it the guilt inside?
You will always find there’s truth to hide.
You’ll never find the answer, they’ll never know the reason, why you died.

Did you hear of the wonder?
