"Truth Becomes the Teeth"
It's important at least in my mind to remind you this is a true story about a woman who was raped and ultimately took her own life because someone who claimed the light but in reality could not have been more dark decided to take advantage of her faith.
Furthermore this is one of the main ideas running through this album, corruption of light, and of the church. I am not anti faith as i am a christian myself. But there are a lot of issues that need to be dealt with
lyrics
Step into the blackest of minds
The perversion of grace
So their talons can cut inside
They come a little closer with the trust that makes them clean
But our absence of morality will destroy every dream
There is an exit
but a true escape you will never find
Because inside your mind there is realities to bleak to rewind .
The marks and the gashes will fade
But the true wounds glow bright red every time someone offers to pray.
The wolf has never had to work so much less
As if the lambs lay down in front of him and open their necks
And with a single bite
Their destroyed adolescence becomes his meal for tonight
Welcome to the darkest of souls
Where the ashes gather from the hearts fires now cold.
There is now darkness greater than someone masks it with light
