This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
I'll break my vow of silence
Because I am what you told me you are
Because you showed me your unhealed scar
Revealed and died in your own eyes
Relieved me to see my own lies
Through the years it has become darker in that secret place
His light pierced this lonely chamber through you
And the truth shall set you free
I'll remember your truth that set me free from it getting
Darker and darker in that secret place
It came flying through the air like a beautiful shadow made me turn my head
The taste of danger is sweet I've always known but still allowed this to be my bread
Evil crow lands on my head, I let it stay
Whispers so I think only I can hear it and I obey
Who would think that so much beauty would come from such horrible truth
Because I am what you told me you are
Because you showed me your unhealed scar
Tongue too ashamed to even pronounce it right
I spoke but kept it in me with ropes so tight
This is my fight, the word was spoken and I got my sight
Promise so glad I wasn't able to keep
Words formed by your soul is my reflection
Lie was bound to my heart to keep
Broken chains through your confession
Because I am what you told me you are
Because you showed me your unhealed scar
Revealed and died in your own eyes
Relieved me to see my own lies
Through the years it has become darker in that secret place
His light pierced this lonely chamber through you
And the truth shall set you free
I'll remember your truth that set me free from it getting
Darker and darker in that secret place
It came flying through the air like a beautiful shadow made me turn my head
The taste of danger is sweet I've always known but still allowed this to be my bread
Evil crow lands on my head, I let it stay
Whispers so I think only I can hear it and I obey
Who would think that so much beauty would come from such horrible truth
Because I am what you told me you are
Because you showed me your unhealed scar
Tongue too ashamed to even pronounce it right
I spoke but kept it in me with ropes so tight
This is my fight, the word was spoken and I got my sight
Promise so glad I wasn't able to keep
Words formed by your soul is my reflection
Lie was bound to my heart to keep
Broken chains through your confession

this song is AWESOME i love blindside
woah woah yeah YEAH! Man, this so reminds me of the things going on in our youth program right now. crazy awesome stuff. I love it when Christians are real. so many times we don't realize that when we open up and tell our testimony that it has the power to change someone else's life and that God put us through it to help someone else out. "broken chains through your confession". "I'll remember your truth that set me free from it getting darker and darker in that secret place." my friend struggled with bisexuality for a couple of years and now has finally been freed from it. she shared it with us and wasn't ashamed to talk about it and to admit it. and it brought this atmosphere that was so insane. people started opening up and admitting who they really were deep inside that "secret place". it was so great.
