I was a hardcore Christian when I was first really getting into music, and it just so happened that a lot of these "core" bands had this massive Christian culture thing going around at the time. So they still make up a lot of my library.

Just when you couldn't be more of an enigma, you go ahead and say you were a hardcore Christian. Haha I feel you are going to cause me to grow eyes in the back of my head sometimes.
Yep, and I still listen to all the Christian hardcore and metal stuff. I still have my chestpiece tattoo, which is the Sacred Heart. Never intend on covering it up.

Is that so. I don't think I will ever be able to understand you, and that's probably why I enjoy your comments so much. Haha.
I don't think I'm that mysterious haha. Ex-Christian is a common life thing for a lot of people in the US

Where not just talking about ex-Christian. With that type of music, Were talking about ex Machina Christian haha. Which I am not sure is that common. But again, I am not part of that world enough to make conjectures. Common or no, you are still amazing.
Will the waves of time wash away the pain in my heart?
Can I bury the knife that has pierced my soul,
Or will I continue to turn it to remind me of my own blindness?
Because I find no touch of grace to surprise my eyes or rest my spirit
And I have come to realize my good moments were forged in self deception
And the question that plagues my mind... is grace enough?
To build a bridge once burned,
To fill what is hollow with the substance of virtue?
Though the wings of a dove have wiped the tears from my eyes,
This tongue has fanned the flames of unforgiveness
But love suffers long, and rejoices in truth
And this imperfect creation is shortcoming,
But striving nonetheless for that which is eternal

This is a two-parter because the band made a complementary song from the other side on the next album:
He is Legend: The Seduction
Where did she go?
I do not know, in which direction was it snowing?
I turn around again
Paint over pictures on the wall
(I can't believe she gave me alcohol)
I thought of Jezebel
Hung from a wrecking ball to see a fashion show
I think you know me well,
I think you know me well
Juliet, you know you want it!
I've been receiving strange phone calls from the city
And I will not extend my hand to the general
And I do not think the people will remember us
Alright!
I hung from a wrecking ball to see your fashion show
I think you know me well,
I think you know me well
Oh, break it down.
I'm still receiving strange phone calls from the city
And I will not extend my hand to the general
And I do not think the people will remember us
We'll find out when you leave!
I hung from a wrecking ball to give you a fashion show
I think you knew me well,
I think you knew me well
I've been jumping over buildings, I've been sleeping in the street
Mr. Jones will be right with you if you would just have a seat
Well I'll meet you at the river where we both can clear our heads
I think we would look great dead
I've got to find the princess, but she's in another castle
I'm dancing with the Capulet
We're so "crazy in love"
Juliet you know you want it!
You know you want it!
You know you want it!
You know you want it!

He is Legend: Dixie Wolf (The Seduction Pt 2)
I thought you knew me but it seems you never did
I tried to find you in the castle where you hid
I took the pictures that you ruined from my wall
No one remembered me (I was right after all)
I am the villain to you,
You are the princess to me
I got you where I want you
Let love bring you to your knees
If I can not have you, darling, no one will
This fairy tale is ending, this fairy tale is ending
Rest in pieces!
I am the hero to you
You are the villain to me!
I jumped a building or two
To write this love story
I was the prince that every dame was looking for
But you gave your love to every jester at your door
Well I always knew that you would end up stepping out
But that's what this cannon aimed at you is all about
I am the villain to you
You are the princess to me
I got you where I want you
Let love bring you to your knees
If I can not have you, darling, no one will
This fairy tale is ending, this fairy tale is ending
Rest in pieces!
I am the hero to you
You are the villain to me
I jumped a building or two
To write this love story
Well I cant wash it off
I can't rinse it out
I can smell you on my clothes
And I can taste you in my mouth
I can't shake it off
And I can't get it out
You are everywhere I look
And you are all I dream about
I never wanted to end like this
Juliet (Juliet)
(You know you want it.) I never wanted it like this.
(You know you want it.) Romeo look at what you did.
(You know you want it.) I never wanted it like this. Like this.

(Every "well that's what I said, I said exactly what I meant" is very satisfying to me lmao)
Like clock work, and like miracles
You witnessed halos,
But you failed to see its horns
The illusion of intelligence, a continuous sounding bell
Can you feel the interruptions in the air?
Can you feel the static?
I've never seen you like this
Yeah, well that's what I said!
Drive, drive the vultures home
You're killing me, just bury me
Yeah, well that's what I said!
I said exactly what I meant!
You're killing me, just bury me
Holy ghosts, and talk show hosts
How I panic as you fail
Your conscience is a wolf,
Walls are being built
Deception wears its veil
And time is fleeting
Her love just will not last
And far from men you hang and sway
With no defender
Pushed around by the noise of this carefree crowd
Time is fleeting
Her love just will not last
I will not sleep
While you are throwing anchors
To a drowning generation
Yeah, well that's what I said!
Drive, drive the vultures home
You're killing me, just bury me
Yeah, well that's what I said!
And I said exactly what I meant!
You're killing me, just bury me
Yeah well that's what I said!
Yeah well that's what I said!
Yeah well that's what I said!
Yeah well that's what I said!
Hell is empty, the devils are here
Hell is empty, the devils are here
I, I will never sleep
Like clock work, and like miracles
You witnessed halos,
But you failed to see its horns
The illusion of intelligence, a continuous sounding bell
Can you feel the interruptions in the air?
Can you feel the static?
I've never seen you like this

(The End of All Things Will Be Televised)
All we know will be folded. A day of clouds. Creation waits…
Get away blue collar instrument,
Get away politicians and priests
Refined to consume, it will be laid down
On the necks of the pure, the proud and the damned
Your day will come
Turn the page, embrace your comforting company
The sun beats down on your comforting company
Everything is burning because
Tonight the south is on fire!
The south is on fire!
The south is on fire!
The south is on fire!
The south is on fire!
Creation waits in eager expectation. Anxious. Patient.
Heaven will pause.
Get away blue collar instrument
Get away politicians and priests
Refined to consume, it will be laid down
On the necks of the pure, the proud and the…
Comforting company
The sun beats down on your comforting company
Everything is burning from your comforting company
The sun beats down on your comforting company
The seas are boiling.
Out comes the light
Awake and rehearse
Out come the demons
I never saw you
Out comes the mercy
Shutting down hell
Bite down until it bleeds
Out comes the exit
(All things complete)
O' infamous city, full of turmoil, I'm terrified at your collapse
The kings, they shudder with horror, their faces distorted with fear
Endless empires gently brushed away in the blink of an eye
All Creation, wilted.
Captain, the ship is sinking. Have mercy.
Captain, the ship is sinking. Have mercy.
Captain, the ship is sinking. Have mercy!
Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy!
All we know will be folded. A day of clouds. Creation waits…

Revive a sense of hope
Amidst these abandoned dreams
Rewrite what it is to feel
In hopes it will carry me home
Drift in and out
The light of morning drags me back
I need release
Separate this body from my mind
Send me home
My conscience there to send me off to sleep
When I need you closer
For when I wake I am greeted by shades of grey
I'll return to you
In dreams, the sun sets in our eyes
In dreams, we'll never be apart
In dreams, I'll promise you'll never be alone
How much I wish your voice could send me home
