No Picture Mathias Rhythm Player	#1 by Mathias Geleyn at Jun 21, 1970 at 12:43 PM EST
	the lyrics in this expresses so beautifully how the world is slowly falling more and more into its pit of heartbreaks and backstabs... the imperfect creation is us.

No Picture Jonathan Average	#2 by Jonathan Mehlman at Jan 12, 1981 at 5:34 PM EST
	Best song on The Frailty Of Words, I think. I love the longer Hopesfall songs.

No Picture The Fever...The Average	#3 by The Fever...The Focus x at May 9, 1986 at 6:32 AM EST
	for one thing, unforgiveness is not a word. second, it does not fit the lyrics, nor does the word sound like "unforgiveness." the word is "transgression," listen to the song, you'll hear it. transgression, look it up, it fits the song better than the ficticious "unforgiveness" But as for the song, the meaning seems pretty clear: He has done something he regrets, and as some might understand, regret can be damn painful...especially if you cant forgive youself for it. "though the wings of a dove have wiped the tears from my eyes, this tounge has fanned the flames of transgression." although I have been forgiven, I have sinned, and burned my bridges. "Is grace enough?" Good question Does forgiveness really mend the damage done? Either that or the song is about trying to find "the eternal" Nevertheless this is one of my all time favorite songs. Top ten without a doubt. 1

No Picture Travis Average	#4 by Travis Nichols at Jan 23, 1987 at 7:48 AM EST
	one of my favorite hopesfall and i agree with suicide note on the part where he says "and the question that plagues my mind... is grace enough? "

No Picture chris Wanna Be	#5 by chris carpenter at Nov 24, 1987 at 11:10 AM EST
	This is one of the best songs of all time. hands down. New Hopesfall is horrible. It's weird that Jay Forrest helped ruin Hopesfall, even though he was in the fucking amazing band Laurelei.

No Picture Josh Professional	#6 by Josh Wilson at Dec 30, 2003 at 6:12 PM EST
	this is the first hopesfall song i'd ever heard. and its still my favorite. it's truly great. i
