Another song where Bellamy is in character, dealing with his atheism. As the title suggests, it concerns the thoughts of a dying atheist, scared due to him not believing in heaven or hell or any postmortem plane of existence his entire life. Now, at the moment of his death, he must face the disheartening non existence he had come to believe in.

Or, perhaps the dying atheist isn’t the least bit scared. The phrase “it scares the hell out of me” is used multiple times throughout the song, yet atheists don’t believe in hell.

Just before the bridge, at 2:04, Wolstenholme can be heard jumping into the pool at Grouse Lodge recording studio as Howard hits his cymbals.
