Door to Door Cannibals Lyrics

Your name isn't proud demented man
Hold tight to the lie you salt of earth
Take God and the case below
It falls on the day with much to learn

But you didn't get it
No you didn't get it
But you didn't get it
No you didn't

There like cannibals from the grass stealing lives
And I swear I won't be found
See a door like advice, like a light
I'm getting out alive
I'm getting out alive

Could you tell I've been back too long
Fingers in the face
Kid you not,
Feel it go limp like a rag doll
Crushed
Never jealous
But the rage keeps a chance for the edge
This saint's about to roll

But you didn't get it
No you didn't get it
But you didn't get it
No you didn't

There like cannibals from the grass stealing lives
And I swear I won't be found
See a door like advice, like a light
I'm getting out alive
I'm getting out alive

Getting out
Getting out
Getting out

There like cannibals from the grass stealing lives
And I swear I've just been found
See a door like advice, like a light
Might not be getting out alive

There like cannibals from the grass stealing lives
And I swear I've just been found
See a door like advice, like a light
Might not be getting out alive

Getting out

I just got out of a Cult.

I just heard this song and I relate so hard. The DOOR to DOOR proselytizing...listen to the lyrics.

"Could you tell I've been back too long Fingers in the face Kid you not, Feel it go limp like a rag doll Crushed Never jealous But the rage keeps a chance for the edge This saint's about to roll

But you didn't get it No you didn't get it But you didn't get it No you didn't"

Is literally what happened when I let them have it with all my anger for what they did to my family.

I think he's touching the same ideal he did in face to the floor

He's saying somebody sees themselves very high and so does the people they lie to using god but he's been here too long and he sees them for what they really are. In the beginning they wouldn't find him because he's hiding himself because he's enlightened and towards the end he's talking as if they've found him. My opinion he's talking about governments or maybe the Catholic church. But it''s clear to me he's talking about somebody who lies through god and gets a lot of praise but he sees the truth and is hiding from them now till he gets found.

My Interpretation

@Jaunnyb I believe they've stated in many interviews that they don't like getting into politics/government in their songs. Good theory though!

Sounds like Daddy's bible thumping again. hmmm.
