Condemned,
My regret is not writing more for you, lord.
As this ocean comes to be deeper our vessel becomes less stable,
Look to the sky.

Encourage the elements of god,
Rather than the jars that contain them.
If only the ingredients of man were of such elements.
If only.

With great horror, I admit that we all live off the lust and misfortune of others.
All lives off the lust and misfortune of others,
This is vision, not contradiction.

I see greed in the face of a priest,
And deterioration in the walls of cathedrals.

What was right, now wrong,
Casts a cold reflection on glory,
Look to the sky.

    General Comment:I think it's clear how much hidden talent TDWP has. They get a lot of shit for being "not that good" and "overrated" and their songs are "repetitive". But they have more meaning than most hardcore/metalcore bands out there ever could.

    General Comment:I think this band takes their religion way too far, and uses it as a gimmick to bring in the money. And, their "non-materialistic views" are total bullshit, or they wouldn't be dragging it this far. Good song nonetheless, but they seriously need to find something else to write about.

    General Comment:I believe the meaning of this song is simple: how screwed up society has become; even religion. The song starts off with him telling how he regrets what he's done, and how even though he knows it, without god he's still digging his hole deeper and deeper. He basically says to look to the sky, or God, for help. Not man. He tells fellow christians not to conform to society and to "encourage elements of God", or in other words, do what Jesus would do, not what man would do (Rather than the jars that contain them). Then he's almost drawing an element from transcendentalism about all man having a part of god within us all. Once again again he looks and comments on the corruption of society and how we feed off the misfortunes of others and somehow gain strength from them. He goes on to say "this is vision, not contradiction", which I believe means he basically is calling it as he sees it, and it's just an opinion of his. Finally he talks about the corruption in the religions. "I see greed in the face of a priest". Basically he's saying that even the people who are supposed to be the righteous ones, above all of his, are still sucked into worldly desires. Because of this, the church is slowing eroding itself. Now, society has also taken what we know to be inately wrong, and said it's perfectly acceptable. This is also showing how glory has been morphed from it's pure, true form, into something that best suits society; a corrupt glory, if you will. The song closes by restating that should all look up to god for our help.
    This is just my interpretation. Believe what you want.

    General Comment:"Condemned."
    God will eventually condemn mankind as a whole for our inexplicable sins.

    "My regret is not writing more for you, Lord.
    As this ocean comes to be deeper our vessel becomes less stable."
    The ocean is an ocean of our sins, steadily increasing in depth, and eventually, the waves will just become too powerful and our entire population will be completely corrupted.

    "LOOK TO THE SKY.
    Encourage the elements of God.
    Rather than the jars that contain them."
    Look up to God, pray to God himself, and stop containing your faith in a religion which just weakens your faith. Faith in God isn't measured by how much you go to your local church and show everyone that you are religious, but how much you trust in and believe in God.

    "If only the ingredients of man were of such elements.
    IF ONLY."
    We worship people, idolize them so that they become untouchable (celebrities) as if they are Gods. If only they really were Gods, because then we'd actually be right in worshiping these celebrities of vanity.

    "With great horror, I admit that we all live off the lust and misfortune of others.
    ALL LIVE OFF THE LUST AND MISFORTUNE OF OTHERS."
    Pretty self explanatory. We live for competing with other humans, for worldly achievements, when we should be competing for God and strengthening our faith. We live off being better than each other, when God sees us all as equals.

    "This is vision, not contradiction.
    I see greed in the face of a priest,
    And deterioration in the walls of cathedrals."
    Religion isn't what it once was. It was a way to strengthen your face; it is now a business and is run by greed. God is no longer found in the hearts of priests and in churches.

    "What was right, now wrong,
    Casts a cold reflection on glory.
    LOOK TO THE SKY."
    Again, we glorify people, not God. Look up to the sky, look up to God, not to people.


    This is just my interpretation to the best of my abilities. I'm Muslim and I probably have a different interpretation of these lyrics, but I hope your faith is strengthened through this music.
