Capture

from Idolatry by Modal Citizan

/

about

A relentless, constantly and unpredictably building song about doing everything possible to make things work in life and relationships. Casting blame on those that exude entitlement and never look inward, Capture calls for the cessation of self worship. Casting blame on those that lean on religion as an excuse to be terrible, this track speaks from the perspective of an alternate, divine energy - the Thief of Prayers, as God doesn’t want selfish prayers from sinners. The drums, bass, and guitar work in this track a straight wicked.

lyrics

I respected you
And everything you gave to me

Was it just all about understanding you!?
To make sure that everything is dead in me!

There are things you do…
You sit back while our existence bleeds…

Was it God that you were begging to!
Or! Some bitch caught up in a fantasy!

These ruins I’ve endured for you!
Make me regret my life.

Of entitlement, hollow-vain penance,
Hang your head low,
I am the thief of your prayers.

I know your -
Of entitlement, hollow-vain penance,
Hang your head low,
My blood!
The sacrament!
Unholy Ghost-goes!

STOP ENTITLEMENT!
FUCK YOUR VAIN PENANCE!
Bring your head low,
I am the anvil that will smash your sins, whore!!!

Of entitlement,
hollow-vain penance,
hang your head low,
I am the thief of your prayers I know your -

OF ENTITLEMENT!
FUCK YOUR VAIN PENANCE!
Bring your head low,
I am the anvil that will smash your sins, whore!!!

Of entitlement, hollow-vain penance,
Hang your head low,
hang your head low,
I am the thief of your prayers…
