Faith
L.O.T.U.G Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Damien rings his silver bell and the high priest freaks' cheeks start to swell
Feelin young feeling pure feelin full of himself while that pope frank tries his evil spell

The alter boy moans in bliss
The old man can't take a hint
The alter boy moans in bliss
The old man can't take a hint
Alter boy
Oh alter boy

Pope frank tries his tricks of the trade while Damien prepares his holy blade
Oh Damien, what can you say
Oh Damien, what can you say

The alter boy moans in bliss
The old man can't take a hint
The alter boy moans in bliss
The old man can't take a hint




Alter boy
Oh alter boy

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to L.O.T.U.G's "Faith" describe a twisted and corrupt religious ritual. The song begins with Damien, who may be a priest or a member of the clergy, ringing his silver bell, which seems to get a reaction from the high priest. Meanwhile, another figure named Pope Frank is attempting to cast an "evil spell." The contrast between Damien's pure intentions and Pope Frank's dark agenda sets up a conflict within the religious world.


The focus then turns to the young altar boy and an old man, who cannot seem to take a hint. The altar boy is moaning in bliss, most likely due to some sort of sexual abuse or manipulation. The old man's inability or unwillingness to stop the abuse highlights the corrupt nature of the religious system in question.


The imagery throughout the song is unsettling, suggesting that those who hold power within the religious hierarchy may be motivated by sinister intents. The repetition of "Oh Damien, what can you say" implies that even those with good intentions may be powerless to stop the more pervasive evil at work.


Overall, "Faith" provides a bleak look at the intersection of power and religion, implying that such dynamics can be manipulated and corrupted at the expense of their followers.
