The song has never been fully performed, or at least no performance of the song has been recorded, But a slightly modified intro of the track was used for the Guns for Hands intro during the 2014 tour.

|As many worshipers have expressed, Tyler is curious as to why God would create humans with the ability to sin. In biblical times, the true name of God was considered much too holy to be spoken aloud. This may also allude to the famous passage in the Book of Exodus in which speaking the Lord’s name in vain is made to be a crime:<blockquote>Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.</blockquote>It’s appropriate to note here that Tyler never directly says “God” in his songs (save for “A Car, A Torch, A Death”), even though many clearly contain religious allusions. As this article suggests, it almost seems as if this is done to draw people in, then let them figure it out for themselves.<ref name=":0" />

''«I know You're not a liar and I know You could set fire this day''


''Go ahead and make me look away»''

=== Video ===
[[Chris Joseph]] and his partner have a religious website where the latter posted a homemade video clip of this song a long time ago.
 


Tyler believes that all of God’s promises (everlasting life will be eventually fulfilled, but because of his doubt, he still wants physical proof of His existence. This is why he is asking for God to show himself and make it rain fire upon the Earth now, just as the Bible says it will during the final days in 2 Peter 3:10:<blockquote>But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed.</blockquote>“Make me look away,” could be a reference to Genesis 19, where God destroyed the two cities of Sodom and Gomorrah with a rain of fire. When God told Lot to leave with his family, they were told to not look directly at the cities burning, for little did they know, they would turn to salt if they peeked; Lot’s wife learned the hard way.

A less literal analysis of this line is that God is making him look away from any proof, forcing him to solely rely on his faith.
