Velatum

Song of the day;;




Shepherd is chased by the wolves
Wolves who lived by intolerance and hate
For what they couldn't understand


Blinded and vicious are the beasts

Beating and ripping at a beautiful human
Who did nothing more than be himself


Tied to the fence as they break you

And sadness will sear
Cold is the wind that will freeze you
And sadness will sear


Scarecrow is left crucified

Left freezing, bleeding, tied and wondering why
The wolves just couldn't understand


It's the preachers, and the teachers

Governments closed-minded creatures
Try to teach us to hate that which is different


Tied to the fence as they break you

And sadness will sear
Cold is the wind that will freeze you
And sadness will sear


It's 12.53 Am, October 12th

When the scarecrow died
A victim of society's cruelty


It's 12.53 Am, October 12th

When the shepherd died
The candle's light will alight your departure


Tied to the fence as they break you

And sadness will sear
Cold is the wind that will freeze you
And sadness will sear [x2]

This song is about a boy called Matthew Shepard who was beaten to death in 1998 because of his sexual orientation. The lyrics are really beautiful and the story behind them is heartbreaking. People should stop hating others for what they are.

Anyway, seeing as it is the 31st, this will be my final post of the year, so Happy New Year everyone! I was thinking, since this is more of an angst-blog, that I could create another one where I'll write about every day stuff and where I can also put my photography to. I'll let you know.

Oh, and thank you everyone who has taken their time to read something here, I appreciate every single one of you. Stay awesome!
