Despise is not purity, despise is more from the view of the person who buried Purity. Purity is from Purity's point of view. Purity includes "Put me in a homemade cellar. Put me in a hole for shelter. Someone hear me please, all I see is hate, I can hardly breathe and I can hardly take it!" meaning she is desperate for someone to find her and save her, as she is buried in the ground. In purity the first verse is referring to the situation she's stuck in, how she can't escape and is helpless. However, in despise, it's Purity's killer who, according to the story of Purity Knight, is seen as a freak to many people. Purity's killer is referring to how he can't escape the everyday problems in his life, and that he's going crazy. The verse starting with "Lost, ran at my own cost" refers to Purity running from her killer in the song Purity. In Despise, I believe it refers to the killer trying to run from his life. He buries Purity, and sees it as burying his problems. "Bleak, all around me weak" in purity refers to Purity losing her energy, being buried for so long without food or water, and only a small hole to breathe through, which is where she tells the little boy stories from (if you don't know the story, look up Purity Knight). In despise, "Bleak, standing on my feet" refers to the fact that the killer is standing on the surface while Purity is buried in the ground. The verse beginning "Cut me- show me- enter- I am willing and able and never any danger to myself" just from the way it's sung can be assumed to refer to either the hate the killer holds for Purity or the point where he just snaps. I still want to figure out what he means by "My state of mind gets so one sided." PLEASE NOTE, PURITY KNIGHT'S CASE IS NOT REAL, IT IS FROM A WEBSITE USED TO TRAIN CSI STUDENTS. |

OK, first of all, corey wrote NONE of the music or lyrics, PAUL GRAY DID, which is why they don't know if they will do another album. And |
