I only have a vague subject to this and I would love to hear YOUR interpretations, there's a lot to think about in this song....) (Intro) Deciphering the metaphors Deception is crucial to decision Crashing down, the unrighteous figures Twisted and perverted in all ways human Goring the innocent in ways unknown to the eye The way for it to end, transcending trends A decision that comes from within Guarding your conscience from sin CHORUS Illusions, the greatest danger Holding secrets to your anger Penetrating dreams, creating screams To hell we go as angels bleed The weaker get weaker as devils thrive We ignore them; its means to survive Illusions I said, our greatest danger Unwillingness to help the estranged stranger Arrogance everywhere, its our nature Ambiguous qualities without substance Illogical thoughts override the circumstance Crippled in life do not stand a chance (Solos) CHORUS Bleeding, as is my heart Rebellious nature a valuable mechanism Conformity, blind faith is only a schism Clarity, charity, back away from submission Evil comes in dark, abstract forms Shrouded in darkness by the unknown Fears crowded now as tension mounts Choosing the easiest option, escaping scorn. CHORUS (Slower tempo) Why must kindness cause derision? Alienation is your mission. (X2) Figures reforming again, I never called you a friend Please let this madness end, as I will be murdered again (X2) (Instrumental Section) Why must you come again......
