It sounds like this song is from the perspective of a woman who continually had her hopes and dreams destroyed until she felt it was her only recourse to do something rash. When the material world has shown someone there is nothing left but to be buried alive by sneaky malicious operators who parade themselves in her town as charity saints, the spirit realm is the only place left one can go.
We also get to see songs from EC’s musical A Face In The Crowd that just so “coincidentally” happened to get kiboshed by the big psyop that was launched in full virulence at the beginning of 2020.
