→ Trivium - And Sadness Will Sear

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!
