Vanishing Rites (Tread Softly Little One) Lyrics
Come on in
Make yourself comfortable
Just sit down there
Lock the door
I’ll beg for more while you whisper softly to yourself
In the dark
You all sound so similar
But I’m listening
Feel your sin
Sweet and succulent
Penetrates my very skin
Just remember we are watching you
We have got eyes everywhere
You are in this ‘til the end
I would tread quite softly now if I were you my friend
It’s a promise you made
When you were quite small
So keep on keeping close
Watch your step now
Close your eyes or you might fall
Have no fear
Just confess and disappear
Get inside the box and let me watch
Have no fear
Just confess and disappear
Make yourself comfortable
Just sit down there
Lock the door
I’ll beg for more while you whisper softly to yourself
You all sound so similar
But I’m listening
Feel your sin
Sweet and succulent
Penetrates my very skin
We have got eyes everywhere
I would tread quite softly now if I were you my friend
It’s a promise you made
When you were quite small
So keep on keeping close
Watch your step now
Close your eyes or you might fall
Have no fear
Just confess and disappear
Get inside the box and let me watch
Have no fear
Just confess and disappear

Could this perhaps be talking about religion?
"we are watching you" gives the impression of angels watching you
Reference to a confession at the end?? "box" ... or is it simply talking about death. That is the "box" is your coffin?
Feel it is very much about death and what awaits us.
Amazing riffs throughout this song and the tempo of the music changes beautifully to create atmosphere. Wonderful musicians.
