Description Evil fell from your pretty mouth
Wrapped in your classic voice
Angelic in your syntax
Demonic in your motive
Your pretty eyes don’t know that
The water flowing from this well isn’t fresh
Demolish all that sets you up against your rising up
Confessing all that’s broken and watch the healing come
Spread out your open hands
Admit you’ve held them shut
Turn all the way around
Be swept away by this

Time for surrender
Spread out your open hands
And He will raise you up
Confessing all that’s broken
And watch the healing come
Spread out your open hands
Admit you’ve held them shut
Be swept away by this

Your clothes are smooth and spotless
The air is putrid sewage
Downwind of your pressed church clothes
Your eyes are black and empty
Your deeds are just for showing
How big and bright your fake smile glows
I see you moving and they're getting scared
Their eyes are focusing on something else
You're staring at me and I stare at you
I rage against everything that you do
-Flyleaf

Such a shame. Spirituality doesn't have to be that way.

Not at all, but to some people the containment of religion can be comforting. I know of some people that would feel lost without the constrictions of their beliefs.

Oh, what song is that? Is that off the new album. Well, newer album. I haven't heard it yet.

It's "swept away" from Memento Mori. It's a really good song, I really love the newer album. Possibly better than the first.
