Mortal coil is a poetic term for the troubles of daily life and the strife and suffering of the world. It is used in the sense of a burden to be carried or abandoned. To "shuffle off this mortal coil" is to die, exemplified in the "To be, or not to be" soliloquy in Shakespeare's Hamlet.
In your defense, Catholics don’t understand death. Or life.
The artist doesn’t have to know it’s in there for it to be there. Science works the same way.
And frankly fans can indeed invent intent. You do it all the time with RAC and ICP. The artists indeed didn’t see what you see in it during the creative process but art is always open to interpretation beyond the confines of any single mind including the artist’s. The common intent was to create something for others to enjoy and interpret as they see fit.
Shakespeare didn’t know about DNA when he wrote this mortal coil. Yet, somehow he did.

Nice cheap shot beta, too bad it has no legs. I always provide evidence and facts, some people just refuse to accept them. That's on them.
I like to think that Tesla played a larger part than Marconi.
Not in this song he didn't, and besides "Tesla plays the tree snake." wouldn't make sense.

Keep reading, shitstain, about the etymology of the word.
It’s from a famous siloguy about death and suicide.
Do you see the irony of teasing me for having taught in Japan when you’re entire life including your very unfortunate family live off your English teaching job IN JAPAN or do you need that spelled out as well?

I find it lame but kinda funny. Any time a song mentions rock n roll as a saviour of some kind it gives me a laugh and just for that i dont hate this song but i still thinks it sucks.
