Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
It doesn’t have to be me making the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So how’s it going?
Where’d you leave the keys?
Me? Here you go, create another fable.
In an interview, Daron Malakian explained, "The song is about how we are regarded differently depending on how we pass. Everyone deserves to die. Like, if I were now to die from drug abuse, they might say I deserved it because I abused dangerous drugs. Hence the line, 'I cry when angels deserve to die. The lyrics for the midsection (“Father into your hands I commend my spirit”) were randomly picked out by Serj Tankian from Rick Rubin’s book collection after Tankian was struggling for ideas. Although it was not revealed what book the line was taken from, it is originally from the Bible, appearing in Luke 23:46.
