I never thought that I would find myself
In bed amongst the stones
The columns are all men
Begging to crush me
No shapes sail on the dark deep lakes
And no flags wave me home
In the caves
All cats are gray
In the caves
The textures coat my skin
In the death cell
A single note
Rings on and on and on
In bed amongst the stones
The columns are all men
Begging to crush me
No shapes sail on the dark deep lakes
And no flags wave me home
In the caves
All cats are gray
In the caves
The textures coat my skin
In the death cell
A single note
Rings on and on and on

i agree it being about an atheist's viewpoint of the afterlife, or in this case, no afterlife, just an everlasting nothingness..."i never thought that i would find myself, in bed amongst the stones"-lying in a grave "no shapes sail on the dark deep lakes and no flags wave me home"-no heaven or hell waiting. during the faith album he was completely reevaluating his faith in (i think it was) christianity. (possibly one of the branches of christianity, cathlocism i'm sorry i don't know much about church, it angers me so i try to ignore it) he said " i was looking deep within myself to see what faith i had if any " and the whole album is based on religion, particularly songs like the holy hour just him observing the church and thinking.
