The Dreadful Hours Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Arc Avalo

If this is about God, the virgin Mary and Christ, then god must be one evil dude. For me, though, this song is simply about a father taking out his anger on his son, and maybe there's a sense of the son crying out to god for help. I've been there, too.
