It's about asking God to come down into the mess, about not having your prayers answered... "You did right to call my bluff 'Cause I won't say when I've had enough" 1 Cor 10:13 Prayers not being answered "I won't repeat myself again I will not repeat myself again It's another promise D.O.A." [this part is so clever!!] "And you tried so long to just ignore it...." Healing "There is healing in your hands" + "Been away too long I know I've been away too long" [Jer.3:22] but perhaps, Ps. 6:2 |

About a father who (allegedly) lost his temper when the family was breaking up. Dad was hunted down as his family fell apart. Police don't even listen to fathers once a woman calls the police. To game the court system in child custody / alimony / child support matters, women are turning the police/law against fathers (sometimes non-father husbands) in false allegations. Very difficult to disprove, the fathers are herded to prison (hence the "Final Solution" reference...a man-free family structure). Unless a father/man has a strong support system, when this happens folks look at them askew. "And when they come for you, Who will there be left to speak for you?"... Also "I never knew we were so blind"...(see VAWA/new matrix (which TtWS probably did Not have in mind when they wrote this, but) the general way we don't pay attention to what happens when families fall apart. It's just like "Tim & Angie got a divorce". |
