the lyrics of this song can be taken literally and/or metaphorically. to me it has a deep meaning,
"the paddle's broken the punishment is served in full
the welts are faded the pain still lingers as it should
the lone receiver" when i first read the lyrics to this song i was like whoa, he's talking about someone getting hurt by someone else( to me it was a father vs. daughter, or an abusive family situation because of personal issues i have, it could also be looked at like a relationship gone bad, or something else)
and then going for help to someone close, someone they love, and hearing that what's happening is really nothing "you said there would not be any reason to fear this world"
And now the person is really emotionally scarred and confussed because now he/she is thinking that he/she is weird, or that it's their fault, or maybe that what is happening isnt really happening, or maybe that something is wrong with them, a kind of if i was more or less of this then maybe it wouldn't have happened type of thinking, "I feel broken branded burning with doubt"
and the fact that what has happened hasn't stopped "these things are dealt in increments"
i dunno, it's a great song, musically and lyrically. I give major credit to FSF, go them lol
