"And did you dress like you got some authority?
I don't think you understand the severity
In the club where you lost your virginity
Now it's all just a question of paternity"

The narrator points out to the people who talk about the topic, saying they do not have the authority to talk about the conflict, and that they do not understand the severity of the pain of the people of Israel. The paternity line could refer to his two adoptive Israeli daughters. For him it is a matter of family.


"Living in the country, we're all fucked up
All dressed up like monkeys, we breed like dogs
We live in the past, we don't advance"

Steven says that everyone is fucked either way and stagnant, breeding like dogs could mention over population on the Palestine world.

The Same River Twice:
"We need to swoop closer to each teacup or flask
Observe in more detail the cast of our mask
Here they all come in parade, village fête
You'll see much better if you climb on that gate
Each actor's house filled with giggles and tears
Although you can't see them
They've been here for years"

The line mentions how every place has a history behind it justifying the current situation on there, the line they have been here for years could refer to the Israeli people been there from decades ago.

Now Departing:
"You might get on train but you'll never escape"
There is no escape for the people of Palestine, they have to die.

Hireath: This word means sense of incompleteness for a past or a homeland that is irretrievably lost.

On Chapel Slope:
"Now that your visionisnight shade heavy,lay down
Be smiling, dead
You said itall with your rooftop tongue in our mouths
Snowed on by all the winding sheets they discard
To be reborn"

Steven is asking the Palestine people to be happy they will die, because they are dying for a new beginning, they will be reborn as ashes that will paint the new Israel town

"You'll stay with us, as stones evermore"

Regardless as separated by conflict, the Palestine people will stay with the Israeli, but dead, buried

Murmuration:
"The only crowd are shades
They fidget while I sing another page"

People complain about the conflict online while Steven just sings about what he truly believes

"I clear the snowfall
And stuff the dead newspaper in my naked shoes
One step forward, two steps back
The traffic coughing black"
He ignores criticism and the news of the deaths.

A Basket of Bees:
"The priest disapproves
Of this girl with her cloven hooves
And mothers will pray
That she won't steal their son away"

The Pope has publicly denounced the humanitarian crisis, forced displacement of Palestinians in Gaza, but the state of Israel still has to what they need, even if Palestine moms pray for their sons, that's all they can do

Great Green Map:
"Take out that map
Point with your finger
Where should I linger?
A stream and a dirt track
No roads run between it"

This mentions about the two state solution and where the line should be drown.

"The village is near and it's always been here
Like a whisper of smoke
It fades and regroups like a film on a loop"

The stance of Israel is that it is not a new state, but that it was only recently liberated, for Israel they have always beein there.

Wheel:
"Dead rise from the grave
To turn the wheel, a new phase
In the dark the wolves reclaim the old ways"

This is about bringing back the state of Israel as they see it on the bible

The Old God is Buried:
"The old God is buried with grandeur and gold
The world will spin coins, which the poor cannot hold
You will all blow away"
Both Judaism and Islamism are very old religions, burying an old god could represent the end of the islam god the Palestines have in pro of the Judaist God.

"You'll stay with us, as stones evermore
You'll stay with us, as stones evermore"
