Road To Dead Lyrics

Dead dead dead dead walking down to the road to dead (9 times)
Welcome to the church of me
Where they stand in a line ???
With water from my eyes
And a song for comfort
You say it's Jesus Christ
Well I feel like him
I feel one two three
Nails through me and
Four through the heart

{Chorus]
You walk the road to resurrection
And I walk the road to dead
And I'm giving you my devotion
But I walk the road to dead

I held you
I wrapped you in the heat of my hand
And prayed for us
Now I watch your back
As you walk away from my love
You need need
Strength is threatening
I filled you will faith
And that filled me with pain
What the hell am I doing
Falling in love with pain again and again and again and again

[Chorus: x2]

Dead dead dead dead walking down to the road to dead (8 times)

Why do i see this song as a 'losing my religion' sort of, taking a a break from religious barriers song? it's a awesome and powerful song.

I think this song is angry and a little sarcastic at the same time. Kind of like "Throwing Stones" part II. "You manipulate me with your catholic shit", and here we have "you walk the road to resurrection, and I walk the road to dead, even though I never knew my devotion, coz' well, I'm not a religious person, you fucktard. But by my 'actions', you keep telling me I'm going to hell, you selg-righteous prick". Or something of that sort.

Not sure, but here are my thoughts.

She was religious. She was faithful and obedient. Then she bonded with a non-believer whom she converted. After a time, for whatever reason, she no longer desired to adhere to the doctrine she was once faithful to. Her companion however, is now more devoted to the religion than to her. Her companion decides to walk away from the relationship and disappoints her. I think she is especially disappointed because, although her companion believes everything she taught them, they do nothing to save her in return.
