La música cristiana es de origen judío: la liturgia musical de la sinagoga, en particular el canto psalmódico de los judíos como unidad poética musical, fue un legado preciado transmitido del Israel antiguo al cristianismo primitivo, como forma de manifestar tanto a nivel personal como comunitario las creencias religiosas y la fe en Dios.
I sank down the plane of delusion
It’s vast expanses mocked my advances
And bid me
Oh fragile mind, you will learn how to fracture
Scrawled across the walls
The suffering saint cries out
Is it madness to retreat
From the myopic gaze that holds us captive?
Follow me
I’ll take you to the edge of reason
Fall with me
We’ll make a home in our delusion
I split my mind ten thousand times
But in every world there’s no exit
No exit
No madness in a dream
No walls surround me to keep me safe
The straight line you draw for me
So perfect, so pure
(Untie me from reality)
When every word is falling from your mouth
Don’t let it become your escape
Make an escape from the monolith
Scale the lies of material despondency
I waited on the tracks of reason
But my train of thought it never came
It never came
The straight line you draw for me
So perfect, so pure
So perfect, so pure
I’d change the world but I can’t change myself
(I saw you shout at the shadows)
I’d change the world but I’m chained to myself
(Define paranoia)
Follow me
I’ll take you to the edge of reason
Fall with me
But could the lips of God grace a withered fruit?
