"We All Fall Down" Information Decoded!

Recommended Posts

Hey Guys!,

This is my first posting on the site and I think that I found some information from "We All Fall Down" on Die Rise that some people might be interested. I'm open to criticism on my ideas and I accept all ideas into consideration. I will include links to all my sources if you want to look deeper into my research and ideas. First I'll start off with posting the lyrics to the song.

Xenopsylla Cheopis 1

MDCLXV

We used the helicase

to bind the CXV

Non-responsive 2

And their ferritin is high

In vivo

But still seem to be alive

Controls are feeling fine 3

Despite the awful sounds

Brought the incidence of tallowy offal down

We all fall down 4

We fall down

We all fall down

We fall down

The martyr's bretheren were not to be set free 5

In vitro planet Earth

In vivo you and me

He had them watch me 6

And lock everything around

He told me

You seem awful down

We all fall down 7

We fall down

We all fall down

We fall down

It will end in flashes 8

And we'll choke on ashes

And we'll all fall down

Long live the phantom 9

I hear him sing and scream out his anthem

I feel the shadows

Crying

Running

Coming, for me too dark to see

We all fall down 10

We fall down

We all fall down

We fall down

It will end in flashes 11

And we'll choke on ashes

And we'll all fall down

It will end in ashes of their lies 12

We can still see flashes in our eyes

But until it crashes

And the atom smashes

All our minds will just fade away

It will end in flashes 13

And we'll choke on ashes

And we'll fall

Xenopsylla Cheopis is a species of Oriental Rat Flea that is commonly known to carry the Bubonic Plague and Murine Typhus which causes extreme vomiting, headache, fevers, muscle pain, joint pain, and nausea. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murine_typhus

The next line states, "MDCLXV" which is the Roman Numeral for "1665" in where the Bubonic Plague took over London in 1665 which lasted until 1750 and the last known existence of the Bubonic Plague breaking out incredibly. It wiped out 20% of England's population which was around 10,000 individuals. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Plague_of_London

The next two lines are unique. It states, "we used the helicase to bind the CXV". Helicase is used in nearly all organism's DNA or RNA transcription in which it "unzips" the organism's helical structure into two linear strands and prepares the genetic code for replication. Just like the MDCLXV line, "CXV" are the Roman Numerals for 115 in which we all know the purpose for it in Zombies at this point hinting that the 115 was binded into the DNA of organisms becoming a part of their entire structure meaning a new possible way for zombies to reproduce instead of infecting a victim on shows like "The Walking Dead". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicase

There's not much symbolic in the next verse except for Ferritin which is a protein in all higher creatures which regulates the amount of iron in an organism which prevents iron overload or iron deficiency. "In Vivo" in Latin means "I live in" in Modern English. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferritin

Verse 3 mentions "tallowy offal down". Tallowy is an odorant which causes a putrid smell when mixed with skin. Offal on the other hand, are organ meats from butchered animals so when these words are put together, means stinking organ meats which could mean the smell from killing zombies with metal bullets causing the "tallowy offal". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oct-1-en-3-one

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offal

Verse 5 mentions the phrase "In vitro" in Latin translates to "In Glass" which may possibly mean that the Earth is in a metaphoric test tube in which an experiment between Richtofen and Maxis is occuring with the help of Samuel,Marlton, Misty, and Russman. "In Vivo" appears again meaning that the line says that "I live in you and me" which in a way is weird saying that "I live in you but also me".

The rest of the song I read it as Samuel's testimony for Richtofen trying to convince him to do as he commands him and is torn between following Maxis or Richtofen. It also seems that he knows the ultimate outcome of what will happen but will not come to terms with it because he may be afraid of the crew shunning and kicking him out and his past experience with "the flesh" shown in the solo cutscene.

I'm sorry for the extremely long post and with all the information given, I feel that the next map will be near England or Europe because of the Bubonic Plague and the reference to the year 1665 and the Oriental Rat Flea. It may not be Paris as other people predict, but I definitely feel it'll be near Europe. I'll have another post soon about Maxis saying in TranZit completing the Tricotomous System. Thank you very much for reading it. JGrizzly out.

aww man. I finished "High Maintenance" yesterday and I was listening to the song and it got me going and I'm glad that someone shared my viewpoints but I feel bad for copying you in a way even though I couldn't have lol. Thanks for the feedback you guys and I'll definitely bring my Tricotomous System post up soon.
