lyrics

every drastic measure
each precautionary tale
tactical tabernacles forging false treasures
they're diversions for the real ones:
fingers clutching beads with palms pierced by their own fingernails

won't you qualify the pain you've caused?
can you quantify the minds lost in his name?
names, yes, I know plenty: the chapters, my friends, aunts, cousins, brothers, fathers, sisters, mothers, uncles, neighbors, lovers...

with eyes beginning to track
physically unable to step on sidewalk cracks
(schuldbeladen/festgeworden)
they could be worried about their mothers' backs
they might be worried they've just prompted hell's attack
this is catholic shellac

and no faith is safe or sacred here
if they're promising freedom from doubt
they'll pour the liquid over you and it will dry crystal clear
but you may never get out
