For The Love Of Fiction Lyrics

The lies are hard to spread thin
But it's so easy to control
Weakness is your savior, but there's nothing left to save
This family tradition passed down on fear
Unconditional love for a stranger?
Nails driven in me, for I have sinned
Your ambition bleeds on a cross
Security bleeds on a cross
Your hopes bleed on a cross
Your life bleeds on a cross
Nails driven in me, for I have sinned
I'd kill for nothing, you'll die for anything
Easier said than done, so easy to take the fall
A scapegoat for all your insecurities
Excuse me; a hero; man made god; for all your insecurities
Walk that sunday tightrope
When the safety net fails who will you follow?
Another sheep has fallen prey
Your choices made with security in mind
When the safety net fails who will you follow?
A sacpegoat for all your insecurities
Excuse me; a hero; man made god; for all your insecurities
And when the last savior is destroyed
I'll dust myself off and just walk away
As you've taught me
As you've taught us all
A prayer for the dying
A prayer for you
The hopeless

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

What a great way to open up the new cd... This song is insane, just like every other. It's weird that I there isn't a song that I don't like on either of their CD's...

Great song, the meaning is in parenthesis. "and yes, this is an attack on everything you want it to be." - I love it.

i think this is about people who believe jesus was more than just a man. when they finally realize that he really is nothing more than another human, who will they follow then?
