Cover art for Atrocities lyrics by Antony and the Johnsons

I think its actually:

God visits all loveless souls To survey the damage And holding his bleeding heart A tear comes to his eye He whispered It's the atrocities of History Of History Of...

I think its about god's deaus otius complex. God's still omnipotent but removed or powerless. He's just reacting to man & nature's atrocities throughout history

He still has a heart & wants to visit the loveless & lost souls

yes its amazing! HAUNTING!!!!!!!! He (Antony Hagerty) is also lead singer of Hercules & Love Affair
