Diablo took a strong place in the Finnish metal music scene with these two albums.
The expectations for the third album increased to a high level when the release date got closer. The hype around the band was enormous. And just before the third album´s release, Finnish most popular music show "Levyraati" broadcasted their brand new video of the song Read My Scars, also released as a single (staying nine weeks on the single chart, topping at number three).

Diablo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I've said that stones won't bleed
So that they don't have to waste
Their lives wondering why
They've been dreaming all these years
All these years I've been hurting
It is my answer to their world,
To everything I see
Have you ever seen
The weight of the world
Crushing someone's soul
You will see me in hell 'cause
I have opened myself
For this god of emptiness
I have painted it in my flesh
So that the whole world can see
There is something very cold in me
They don't want to believe
I've said stay away from me
From my sick morality
My life goes on without your love,
Without your prayers now
Have you ever seen
The weight of the world
Crushing someone's soul
You will see me in hell 'cause
I have opened myself
For this god of emptiness
Read my scars!
Read my scars, it's okay for me baby!
Read my scars!
Read my scars, it's okay for me baby!
Have you ever seen
The weight of the world
Crushing someone's soul
You will see me in hell 'cause
I have opened myself
For this god of emptiness
Read my scars!
Read my scars, it's okay for me baby!
Read my scars!

Soon they will see what I mean
I am confident that very soon they will understand what I have been trying to say
When I've said that stones won't bleed
I mean that lifeless things cannot feel and suffer like human beings
So that they don't have to waste
I want to spare them the pain of questioning their existence
Their lives wondering why
I don't want them to spend their lives aimlessly and full of doubt
They've been dreaming all these years
They have been fantasizing about a life that does not exist
All these years I've been hurting
I have been suffering for a long time with no one to understand me
It is my answer to their world,
This song is my way of responding to the world that has hurt me
To everything I see
It is my reaction to everything happening around me
Have you ever seen
Have you ever witnessed
The weight of the world
The burden of the world
Crushing someone's soul
Devastating someone's inner self
You will see me in hell 'cause
I am ready to face my fate, whatever it may be
I have opened myself
I have exposed my true self to the world
For this god of emptiness
In front of this uncaring deity or force of the universe
I have painted it in my flesh
I have engraved the message in my own body
So that the whole world can see
So that everyone can read and understand my scars
There is something very cold in me
There is a bleak and chilling aspect to my personality
They don't want to believe
People choose not to accept or acknowledge the truth about me
I've said stay away from me
I have warned others to stay away from me and my damaged psyche
From my sick morality
From my distorted sense of right and wrong
My life goes on without your love,
I don't need your affection or love to survive
Without your prayers now
I don't rely on religion or faith to cope with life anymore
Read my scars!
I want you to read and understand my pain
Read my scars, it's okay for me baby!
It is alright with me if you see my wounds and understand me
Read my scars!
I want you to see and acknowledge my scars
Read my scars!
My scars represent my deepest hurts and my true self
