the line "white washed tombs" is taken from what Christ said to the Pharisees, that they were "white washed sepulchres" which meant that they professed faith outwardly but it wasn't something that was actually in there heart, since if it was, they wouldn't have doubted that Jesus was the Son of God

The song is by far the most touching Zao song ever written, this past week...i decided i am done being the hypocrite, i am going to live a true christian life, i want to live for God now...and i hope that anyone that reads this will take thought of what i have said....this may not be a clear message i just said, but i just want to recommend everyone starts praying and reading the bible....

WHen I first heard this song the only thing I felt was amazment. I listened to the way he described this and felt only remorse for what happens. The battle just went on, he kept fighting as he saw this happen.

i felt like i was actually going into a battle at the beginning of the song. i would close my eyes and see what he saw when he wrote that song.

I *think* right at the end of the spoken part he says "my brothers are with the others". Maybe. Awesome song. Nothing comes close to the intensity and power of this song. Yay for Zao.

Definatley my favorite Zao song. I agree with the post about churches full of stained glass and such not being a true house for God. BTW. I love this band, and I am one of those people who have turned away from Christianity and God in general, but thats just my current belief. I do like Zao alot though. Strong lyrics and great music with a strong message. My interest in the bible and in relegions in general (educational wise, not belief wise) is what attacts me to this band.
