Desecration of Alleged Christian History
Phlebotomized Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Objective inhale the atheistic breath
Slowly captivated by the suffocating mass
Twisting the cross from heaven to hell
Christ was glared upon
Seen by the frenzied meek
Haunted by the unspoken phrase
Desecration of alleged Christian history
Leading the noble disciples
Onto black massive infinity
Christ's assertion blazened out
As the depths peacefully smirken
Commanding the snorting beasts for his re-crucifixion
Visualize heaven's cross
Blaze in hell's fire
The cross of the fallen angel
Once again released...released
Twisting the cross (3x)
Twisting the cross from heaven to hell
Unsavable ones entrusted
Souls for God to keep
Meaningless words never seem to fail
To attract reinforcements from deep
Desecration of alleged Christian history
Leading the noble disciples
Onto black massive infinity
Christ's assertion blazened out
As the depths peacefully smirken
Commanding the snorting beasts for his re-crucifixion
Visualize heaven's cross
Blaze in hell's fire
The cross of the fallen angel
Once again released...released
The lyrics of Phlebotomized’s song “Desecration of Alleged Christian History” are dark and critical of Christianity. The lyrics suggest a dismissal of Christian beliefs, portraying them as subjective and superficial. The lines, “foul, subjective thoughts into the air” and “objective inhale the atheistic breath” suggest that the singer is challenging the Christian faith with atheistic beliefs.
The next few lines introduce the idea that Christ is weak and hauntings for his followers. The idea of a weak Christ goes against the Christian belief that Christ was powerful and divine. Furthermore, this may relate to the idea that Christianity is superficial, and its followers are blinded by irrational beliefs.
The chorus repeats the title phrase of the song, suggesting that the Christian history is alleged and not necessarily true. The second part of the phrase, “leading the noble disciples onto black massive infinity” suggest that Christianity is leading its followers to a dark and endless abyss. The song continues with the idea that Christ is weak and that he is commanded by the beasts to be re-crucified. The last lines describe the cross of the fallen angel being released and twisted from heaven to hell, further suggesting that Christianity is false and leading people to dark places.
Overall, the song is a critique of Christianity as a superficial and false religion that is leading people to darkness and delusion.
