While everyone is thinking this song is about hell, It is clearly about the demoralization of America and the darker side of human existence. Domineering Deity is the Media, and The Immoral Observance is the public feeding into the lust and sex that the media has portrayed for people. The “forgotten children” are the generation of youth that can only look up to their “promiscuous mothers and incestuous fathers”. The third verse refers to a society that has lost all moral beliefs and has corroded into hatred. On and On South of Heaven is referring to a society (USA) that has fallen to humanities darker yearnings.
