This was said by Ryan in an AP chat recently. I highly doubt its abou priests molesting childern. "There's a lot of religious references in there, for sure. I [include] religion and specificially morality in my writing pretty frequently. The song is mostly about a friend of ours who grew up to be a great big vulture. believe it or not, a lot of you may know this friend too." |

this song is NOT about his questioning in God, it is more about faith. he saying that if you knew all of the bible, or whatever then would you follow it through. the below quote was said by rayn himself in an ap chat that they did recently he said that in no way are the songs against God. (about the album) "I am in no way against God. If you're referring to lyrics on our record, then you must have misunderstood. If you have a question regarding lyrics concerning religion, feel free to ask." (about the songs) "I promised myself I wouldn't give to much away regarding the lyrical content of our record. I'll just say a few things to help you out. No matter what you religion you believe in, there comes a point in your devotion where books and doctrines and saints and priests mean nothing and you're left with this gap. That gap is faith. What if there was no gap? What if you opened up your bible, the koran, your personal journal...and the answers were right there. Would you do anything about it? If you knew you'd go to hell for the things you'll do...would you change?" |
