about

Crystal Mountain: This is a song we love, and felt that we could cover faithfully at its core, while adding our own twists to its soundscape, to justifying its existence. Lyrically it speaks to religious oppression on a personal and community level.

lyrics

(Lyrics by Chuck Schuldiner)
Built from Blind Faith
Passed down from self-induced fantasy
Turn the to justify
Conjuring power, it opens wide
On your seventh day
Is that how it’s done?
Twisting your eyes to perceive all that you want.
To Assume from Ignorance
Inflicting wounds with your cross-turned dagger
Inside Crystal Mountain
Evil takes its form
Inside Crystal Mountain
Commandments are reborn
All the traps are set to confine
all who get in the way of the divine
In sight and in mind of the hypocrite
A slave to the curse;
Forever confined
Shatter the myth
Don’t cut yourself on your words
Against dreams made of steel.
Stronger than any faith that inflicts pain and fear
Is that how it’s done?
Twisting your eyes to perceive all that you want.
To Assume from Ignorance
Inflicting wounds with your cross-turned dagger
Inside Crystal Mountain
Evil takes its form
Inside Crystal Mountain
Commandments are reborn
