Judith - A perfect circle


You're such an inspiration
For the ways that I will
Never, ever choose to be
Oh so many ways for me to show you
How your savior has abandoned you

Fuck your God, your Lord, your Christ
He did this, took all you had and
Left you this way, still you pray, never stray, never
Taste of the fruit, never thought to question "Why?"

It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side
Praise the one who left you broken down and paralyzed

He did it all for you...
He did it all for you...

Oh so many ways for me to show you
How your dogma has abandoned you

Pray to your Christ, to your God
Never taste of the fruit, never stray, never break, never
Choke on a lie even though he's the one who
Did this to you, you never thought to question "Why?"

It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a spiteful spear into his side
Talk to Jesus Christ as if he knows the reasons why

He did it all for you...
He did it all for you...
He did it all for you

I think this is a really beautiful song.
Personally I think music should tell a story or convey an emotion, if not then all it is, is noise.

I feel the base emotion of this song is anger, or resentment.
Feeling lost in the beliefs that you were taught growing up.
Feeling with your God. "Father oh father, why have you forsaken me."
It hurts.
And in this song the pain is conveyed through frustration, anger and resentment.
But I also think the questions it brings up are good to ask:
Why did Judas abandon Jesus, and if that was what was ment to be, why did Judas hang himself?
"It's not like you killed someone, It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side...
He did it all for you."

Why Judas are you filled with grief, if this is what was supposed to happen?


well i might finish this later, it's getting late.

incase i dont finish,
have a nice day.
