about

Certain events caused me to reflect on spiritual and religious notions, and come to the conclusion that while it serves some people psychologically, it is all bullshit. Or is it? The battle of ideas is like the wars in Lord of the Rings being acted out in one's mind - epic, and ultimately just a fantasy. You decide.

lyrics

Mother of God hold me please.

Oh brother, say you will.
Take my hand and dampen my will.
And we can never be afraid.

Mother of God hold me please.

Oh brother, don’t be still.
All the guardians are slain on the hill.
But we can never be afraid.

We are holding on forever
We shall not know the pain
No uproar shall defeat us
We shall never wear that stain

Mother of God hold me please.

Oh brother, lay you down.
All the rage inside the beast has drowned.
but I will still be afraid.
