Discover the story of the song > Just A Cigarette – Decapitated

The protagonist hears the sounds of Christmas sales at the mall and sees the brightness of the grocery store neon lights. He dreams of being a hero but will likely die alone and scared. He realizes that he is not in control but being controlled and sold. The marks on his back are not from losing his wings, but from being whipped, and what he thought was a morning star was just a cigarette lit in the dark.
