The eve of All Hallows has arrived and I'm back so soon to share another scary tale from the new MASKS EP! This track, as the closer of Masks, tells the story of Father John Ward who lost his mind after a failed exorcism and returned to the possessed girl he couldn't save to put an end to the devil inside her. He searches deep in the woods of Connecticut for her abandoned home but finds other forsaken creatures lurking as well... Is his faith misplaced, he asks, or will his prayers deliver him in his encounter with true evil? Musically this song took a very odd turn especially after a mostly heavy EP, but I felt like trying something new and running with the "dark gospel" kind of sound. My friend Matrix has supplied some amazing graphical expertise for the unique video needs of this song, so big thank you to him for the... er... "faithful" look of the video.

Lyrics:

Lord explain what I'm seeing
Now I'm down on my knees
Devil's been in the backwoods
Came to whisper to me
I need to get back
Mother Mary protect me
Into the black
Cry your heavenly tears
Is my confession loud enough
For you to hear?

You gotta have faith
To deliver from evil
You gotta have faith
In the shadow of death
You gotta keep pace
Looking over your shoulder
You gotta embrace
Your final breath
You gotta take up
Your sinner's burden
To wear it on trial
Like a crown of thorns
You need to hold tight
Like a man on a mission
You gotta cut off
These devil's horns


Lord, allow me repentance
Let me hear what I've done
Seek the devil's acceptance
Show her mercy and run
So where does this end
With a bullet or silence
Won't let you pretend
That the father can't hear
Can you show me some strength to
Wash away my fear

Here on earth your own demons dwell
Like miracles but instead from hell
Now the enemy shows herself
But father where are you?
Through the darkness I've become lost
Searching for this to bear my cross
Now I'm ready to pay the cost
But will you be there too?
