Five, Eight, and Ten Lyrics

Lyric discussion by a perfect sonnet 

Cover art for Five, Eight, and Ten lyrics by Mineral

as much as i think a lot of the time mineral is a "christian band", i think that simpson question's God just as much in his songs as he praises him. I do think it is kind of a commentary on the church and how sometimes people look down on you for not living perfect christian lives. mainly -- i think that this song is a struggle between believing in God and believing in the institution of religion.

however -- i do think you could take the religious references out of the song and just take it as society looking down on people and every decision they make.
