To Take Comfort (In Yesterday's Scars) Lyrics

I wonder if she was too dead to care if I taste the blood of Christ. Her
heart was weak and frail. I'm drowning in the blood of Christ. Her tears
now overflow, falling on hollow ground. Muffled screams escape, the gag
tied around her mouth. I swallowed her soul, suffer this revenge under
my dead heart. I was the devil in her only nightmare, I was the devil in
her dreams. Now that she's not breathing, I've set my demons free. She
is not breathing. I'm drowning in the blood of Christ. Her corpse is
scarred with shame and tears. The sight induced my pain. This dead black
heart once fed the smile of a girl with no name. To take comfort in
yesterday's scars.

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.

To me this song is about killing someone and being ok with it, being comfortable with it. "To Take Comfort".

By far one of my favorite tteotd songs i think this song is about, a guy turned to alchohol"Blood Of Christ" being wine but then he falls into alchoholism in which doing so he decides to rape and kill a random woman to relieve his pain , then procedes to rape and kill her in doing so his life of nothingness is rectified.Thats what i think, most tteotd songs contain the same theme.

I don't know if that's really the theme... Anthony slips up at points where he makes it kind of clear that he's covering up being heartbroken with "OMFG I HAET YOU!"

It's macho emo!
