The eve of All Hallows has arrived and I'm back so soon to share another scary tale from the new MASKS EP! This track, as the closer of Masks, tells the story of Father John Ward who lost his mind after a failed exorcism and returned to the possessed girl he couldn't save to put an end to the devil inside her. He searches deep in the woods of Connecticut for her abandoned home but finds other forsaken creatures lurking as well... Is his faith misplaced, he asks, or will his prayers deliver him in his encounter with true evil? Musically this song took a very odd turn especially after a mostly heavy EP, but I felt like trying something new and running with the "dark gospel" kind of sound. My friend Matrix has supplied some amazing graphical expertise for the unique video needs of this song, so big thank you to him for the... er... "faithful" look of the video.
Faith is an indie game on itch.io and it's FREE to play!

Lyrics:
Lord explain what I'm seeing
Now I'm down on my knees
Devil's been in the backwoods
Came to whisper to me
I need to get back
Mother Mary protect me
Into the black
Cry your heavenly tears
Is my confession loud enough
For you to hear?
You gotta have faith
To deliver from evil
You gotta have faith
In the shadow of death
You gotta keep pace
Looking over your shoulder
You gotta embrace
Your final breath
You gotta take up
Your sinner's burden
To wear it on trial
Like a crown of thorns
You need to hold tight
Like a man on a mission
You gotta cut off
These devil's horns
Lord, allow me repentance
Let me hear what I've done
Seek the devil's acceptance
Show her mercy and run
So where does this end
With a bullet or silence
Won't let you pretend
That the father can't hear
Can you show me some strength to
Wash away my fear
Here on earth your own demons dwell
Like miracles but instead from hell
Now the enemy shows herself
But father where are you?
Through the darkness I've become lost
Searching for this to bear my cross
Now I'm ready to pay the cost
But will you be there too?

One of my favorite things about FAITH is how believably human John is written. He isn’t some steel-willed preacher ready to go to war against the forces of Hell. He’s just a normal man of faith, armed with a crucifix and his wavering belief. He exemplifies how, even as a Christian, even as a man whose life is dedicated to the Bible’s teachings, that seeds of doubt and fear can burrow their way under anyone’s skin. He knows that he’s backed by God, but even then, it’s difficult to stay brave when you’re surrounded by enemies looking to tear you down. It’s so good, bravo to Airdorf’s writing and Aviators’ musical talent ❤

[@sauceman2885]

As a Christian I can say this could legit pass as a religious song. Maybe I can’t speak for everyone but I find nothing wrong with this kind of stuff

Господи объясни что я вижу Теперь я на коленях Дьявол был в глуши Пришел шептать мне Мне нужно вернуться Мать Мария, защити меня В черный Плачь своими небесными слезами Достаточно ли громко мое признание Для вас, чтобы услышать? Ты должен иметь веру Избавить от зла Ты должен иметь веру В тени смерти Вы должны идти в ногу Оглядываясь через плечо Ты должен обнять Ваше последнее дыхание Ты должен взять Бремя твоего грешника Носить его на пробу Как терновый венец Вы должны держать крепко Как человек на миссии Ты должен отрезать Эти дьявольские рога Господи, позволь мне покаяться Позволь мне услышать, что я сделал Ищите принятия дьявола Прояви милость и беги Так, где это заканчивается С пулей или тишиной Не позволю тебе притворяться Что отец не слышит Можете ли вы показать мне силы Смыть мой страх Здесь, на земле, живут ваши собственные демоны Как чудеса, но вместо этого из ада Теперь враг показывает себя Но отец, где ты? Сквозь тьму я заблудился В поисках этого, чтобы нести мой крест Теперь я готов оплатить стоимость Но ты тоже будешь там
