"The most disgusting lies are dressed in beauty that'll rot." Lyrical brilliance.

[@axebox]

The lyrics are really good on this album.

[@secondhandevil]

I know the song is about sex slavery and addiction but when I heard those lyrics my first thought was the War on Terror.

[@Rosela1996]

Oh, my God, save my soul... Oh, my God, You've won the coldest battle we fought... Deliverance is mine from all this beauty that will rot...

[@MissCatwoman1991]

Her voice brings tears to my eyes... She sings from the depths of her soul. Just love her so much 🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@LorneMcKenMorningStar]

Admire..my friend love is a term used to loosely, with no depth, and often times with other implications...

[@franciszekwalczak5903]

This album is just pure perfection. I mean music and lyrics. I could listen to it all the time. And this song has got really great power. Especially when combined with Vanity. Stunning! Greetings from Poland, Lacey :)

[@heathorbellon5517]

Coming from never knowing Jesus and his love to knowing his way and to fall back to be re newed and truly loved by him is more powerful than any one person can explain but wow did Lacey Sturm #lovehopefaithrepent

[@misshathor1430]

Here comes fresh fire fresh fire, fresh fire, fresh fire~ Sends shivers down my spine. ouo

[@aseelhayajneh4928]

[@ichihimefan91]

Thank god she left flyleaf plus I am proud of her for going solo way go lacey you rock girl 👍❤💗

[@vo6367]

"You don't know anything about love" ("You want to know my sacrifices?) "You're twisted and more" (You will always know my sacrifices") "You're so full of your own lies" I can't hold my head up in this dark room anymore I need a lightning bolt to raise me from this grave Here comes fresh fire Fresh fire, fresh fire So infatuated by the darkness and so surrounded by the light Oh my God, save my soul And still I want what's pure and want what's right But I need another fix tonight Oh my God, save my soul Beneath her glowing eyes that call like fire to a moth The most disgusting lies are dressed in beauty that'll rot Oh my God, you've won the coldest battle we've fought Deliverance is mine, from more of this beauty that'll rot Mirror mirror on the wall, will there be glory if I fall? Oh my God, save my soul I need a faith that's solid as concrete, but the impact's broken both my knees Oh my God, save my soul Beneath her glowing eyes that call like fire to a moth The most disgusting lies are dressed in beauty that'll rot Oh my God, you've won the coldest battle we've fought Deliverance is mine, from more of this beauty that'll rot, rot Don't wanna rot I can't hold my head up in this dark room anymore I need a lightning bolt to raise me from this grave Here comes fresh fire Breathtaking blinding truth, freedom I never knew Oh my God, you've won the coldest battle we've fought Deliverance is mine, from more of this beauty that'll rot Songwriters: Joshua Sturm / Lacey Nicole Sturm / Saria Dorsey / Benjamin Michael Hull / Thomas Charles Gascon Rot lyrics © Kobalt Music Publishing Ltd.

Thank you.

[@karac.a.]

Thank you! ❤

[@LeoMorikoTheKnight]

This song sums up what a Christian life feels like when you're trying to find your way. We struggle with who we are because the world worships a different set of ideals than we do. Where the world glorifies sex, money, power, and wealth, we choose to resist all of that because it corrupts us. Christianity is the human separating themselves from the world, and growing closer to the One that calls us. This is the path we walk, defiant of the world.

[@ubernet5345]

I never really viewed the Christians as the "outcasts" before. That's an interesting way of looking at things.

[@AgileRelic]

Jesus loves the outcasts. He hung out with sinners, tax collectors and touched the unclean. Jesus himself was outcast by the religious leaders of his day. He loved the unlovable and had compassion for the weak. All this knowing he would be killed for our sins. He came not to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved. He called us to be like him. So yes Christians are very much outcasts, although there are many who have missed this and try to condemn the very people that he calls us too love.

[@AgileFan0]

And that's why a lot of people hate Christians because some Christian, who probably meant well, slapped em upside the face with the Word of God, thinking that they were helping the person. I don't know about you or anyone else but how many times were you convinced by someone who yelled at you? I know I tend to dig in when someone gets like that with me. Its a natural reaction. Not many people take the time to breath into someone's life with the Word of God, to get down in the dirt with them so to speak and throw an understanding and compassionate arm around them, but instead use the Bible as a club. I think more Christians should read and meditate on Acts 17:23 where Paul spoke with the Athenians. He was kind and considerate, didn't immediately jump to conclusions but instead walked around the city and observed the people, all their idols, and how they worshiped and then addressed them in a respectable and dignified manner. I think Christians forget that our job is to proclaim the Gospel, not try to MAKE or FORCE people to believe. God is the only one who can change a person. He wanted to include us in His work...His work--not ours. God uses us to deliver the message, He does all the work. People tend to think THEY have to convince people and that's where I think much conflict arises. Well said Agile Relic. We are called to love others, recognizing that God's intervention in our lives was the only thing that saved us and that we were once lost ourselves. That thought alone should humble us all and cause us to have a bit more compassion and understanding for others...and patience.

Arcile love this love is Jesus

[@MrKyel17]

Arcile The world worships a different set of ideals? Defiant of the world? Christianity is the most-practiced religion, in the world, and has been for quite some time. You choose to resist all of that? Is that why churches take in billions of dollars, every year, and pay no taxes on that money, AND continue to always demand more? Is that why there are pastors that make obscene amounts of money, while those with jobs that actually help society make shit? While it may make you feel better to believe you're walking a different path, it's one that billions have walked, before you. Religion is one of the few things that, for whatever reason, has remained immune to most criticism, and questioning, throughout history. People can do just about anything, if they claim it is in the name of their precious religion. You're not an outcast, walking some less-traveled path. It's easy to believe in an invisible being, called god, that is in charge of everything that happens. It's the path of least resistance. Don't pride yourself on that.

[@matthewbledsoe2571]

I doubt that it would happen but I would love Lacey to go on Warped Tour!

[@matthewm.7949]

+Itsmatthew126 That would be SO COOL OMG

[@thakemist]

well she is on the BFD 97.1 the eagle concert may 2016! you may be able to see her on tour yet!

[@EmmaWorley]

This is probably my favorite song on the album ☺️💜

[@wheezy_mads]

Same. :)

[@emeraldm0on-yt]

[@IamMsUnique]

[@longrungamer1670]

Probably my favorite too!

[@axebox]

Definitely my favorite.

[@jdewayne1288]

Wish more people listened and liked this type of music.

[@lexmori9356]

That, "Here comes fresh fire," gives me goosebumps every time.

[@aurafoster4430]

Lacey Sturm was the soul reason I fell in love with Flyleaf, it's not the same without her, but she brings a fresh fire to our ears again, and I'm so happy to listen to her sing again.

[@StefanssonLo]

This is just such an amazing, excellent album, especially "Rot". I'm so happy that you're back, Lacey, thank you so much! God bless you :)

[@gabrielleroberson6644]

i honestly think this song is beautiful. in an odd way, but im so glad singing again :) i love her voice and music. its just wonderful.

[@eleanorrose5577]

Wow I have got goosebumps for every song on this album

[@mksway]

It's so good to hear her voice again. Loving this album.

[@xPaLmaaHx]

BEST SONG EVER!!!! This is so amazing I LOVE IT!

[@AbstractEnergy321]

One of the wort songs I have heard in a while

[@xPaLmaaHx]

+AbstractEnergy321 oh really, so tell me why this sing is the most purchased out of the album, and this album has been called by thousands of real music review sites as one of the best of the year. You are just hating besides being a nobody ;)

[@AbstractEnergy321]

Do you always cry when someone's opinion differs from yours ?

[@AbstractEnergy321]

Lol at thousands. Gtfo fanboy

[@xPaLmaaHx]

+AbstractEnergy321 do you always post 3 or more times the same hating comment so you feel better? whatever fucking A.D.D you have, you are the loser who commented on my post so lol, YOU were the crying idiot that differ from me. I just answered with facts to your negativity. Get lost xD

[@JH-uh9zc]

Im going through a divorce from an unfaithful wife. She would belittle and verbally torture me. I've never heard a song speak to me like this. Ive been having it on repeat. I can't believe this is the same Lacy from Flyleaf that I listened to years ago in college.

[@christina_faithh544]

Going on 8 years now that I’ve first heard this song. Love it.

[@MaxxieFelan]

This, Impossible, Roxanne and Life Screams are the best on the album for me. When my new job starts up, I'm buying the CD. Fuck, I've missed her voice!

[@axebox]

No The Soldier? :)

[@TheSimley101]

love her album!!!!!! ❤❤❤heard it a thousand times❤❤

[@souppigreprise]

I'm loving every song.

[@NahuelHuapiPruducciones]

Lacey has such a great voice

[@grumpykyle4104]

sooooo fucking glad she's still making music!!! love her voice

[@songofjoy1119]

What happened to her? Last I saw she was a born again Christian on a Billy Graham special.

[@ovilso8843]

Nothing's changed. She's still a Christian

[@HelloXrancidkitteh]

she was born again way before she started Flyleaf. Flyleaf was a Christian hard rock band she fronted and wrote lyrics for. now, she's married and has 3 boys and is still a Christian. she's even coming out with another solo-band hard rock Christian album again, which she says is out at the end of this summer (2021). this song is literally a hard rock Christian song. listen to the lyrics.

[@AxeStudios]

I can't help but hear "french butter" instead of "fresh fire"

[@metalrockforever1284]

Best song on the album! Sounds amazing!

[@dholland0816]

The lyrics and music on this are brilliant! As good as anything she did in Flyleaf.

[@billsmith9658]

Better imo

[@XKTwentyFive]

Love this album. I can't believe it's been six years since it's release. This is one of my favorite songs on Life Screams. When she sings it live with the Vanity intro, it always sounds amazing. Lacey is on of those artists who I can see never having a bad album and her voice just keeps getting better and better as time goes on.

[@Thunder_unit00]

perfect! never fails at having more songs on the album to kick ass

[@rosemaryluevanos8489]

AAHH OMG ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@cosmicren]

My FAVORITE Song and Female Singer EVER!!! 😎🎶

[@DigiDemii]

I just can't stop listening to this song! I'm so glad to see that you're back Lacey, I've really missed your voice

[@TheSeraphimEmeraldGemGypsy]

So underrated. This song has been an anthem lately. Thank you. 💚

[@patrickdevinepd]

Here comes fresh fire! 🔥

[@burnthemall1]

Call me a devil.. tonight I made my angel cry. Lost in empty and dreaming to fade away ... She's now gone for good

[@nbbloodbought9958]

🔥🔥🔥🔥 He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God. 🙌

[@adellewoods98]

Love this so much

[@emeraldm0on-yt]

btw sturmtroopers a music video for this and impossible is soon to come out

[@HelloXrancidkitteh]

sadly, none for 'Impossible' ]: they did a music video, but it was only made for personal use. ( probably with home videos and stuff like that ). but they did do one for 'The Soldier'.

[@paytonlove2950]

🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼Luv this Lacey!

[@leaf3295]

[@marthaperez2540]

[@JohnJillky]

[@kenadeecoleman866]

[@pb25801705]

best song on the album

[@crazylegoman]

Does anyone know where you can get the radio version of the song that doesn't have the spoken intro that bleeds over from the previous track? I bought the CD which included the mp3 download, and both of them have it.

[@davidrathman2944]

loved this song when you performed it last Saturday in Havasu.

[@cassiemyersconcertvids]

I saw Lacey in Portland, this song and Heavy Prey were the best she performed. I love you!

[@cassiemyersconcertvids]

Yeah I do! They're both great! I'm thinking about seeing TPR in December!

[@TreyWilkerson]

REALLY digging this new album and this song especially

[@mariyears]

I'm gonna buy this album.

[@nicoregules]

Now, i remember why i loved Flyleaf so much

[@desmonthebeast]

She reminds me of flyleaf and the band paramore love those bands plus I had a crush on those singers I still do though gorgeous woman with gorgeous voices

[@afterly]

lacey...was the singer of flyleaf...

[@HelloXrancidkitteh]

I mean, she was from Flyleaf. lol. pretty much the soul of it, especially with her voice and her lyrics. the guys were great too but sadly they weren't as successful as they were with Lacey. years after quitting and raising two of her sons, she is now in a self-titled band with her husband, Josh, on lead guitarist.

[@nevaeh9375]

I love this song video song love

[@jamesmoore1168]

All I can say is awesome.

[@SeulTae]

[@Phrates.]

[@leaf3295]

[@leaf3295]

[@endlessunivese9350]

i love her singing af

[@yaniralopez3771]

awesome

[@jonatasgomes374]

Yay

[@theamvgirlx]

......this song is about Flyleaf isn't it?

[@LeoMorikoTheKnight]

+theamvgirlx maybe the fame that came with it

[@liminalmeow]

No I think it's about sexual abuse because in her official video for this song, in her channel, has a link for a website that wants to stop sexual abuse at the end of it. Idk, just watch it.

[@Plaid_pants_panter]

This song is clearly about over coming drug addiction lol- Not to mention Lacey has said herself she was an addict and her conversion to Catholicism to god helped her get clean It’s a bit stereotypical but im sure you have seen a few cinematic images of people that are drug attics or homeless. Its not that uncommon for being poor and an addict to go into for various reasons. Being poor or homeless they tend to squat under highways or in vaguest houses that don’t have light ergo its dark . Hard drugs can make a person seem like there are in deep sleep while the drugs are in effect hence "I can't hold my head up in this dark room anymore” "but I need another fix tonight" pretty self-explanatory IMHO but a fix is typical slang for another helping of whatever drug said person wants another helping of. Fun fact- Certain Drug are addicting but they make you feel good and sometime even see amazing things but long usage will do horrible things to your body in extreme cases kill you. The peace they give is false but attractive, beautiful, that will rot your body“the most disgusting lies are dressed in beauty that will rot" All the in between stuff is her asking god to help her

[@AbstractEnergy321]

Should be up for one of the WORST songs of the year. Generic garbage.

[@JobberGames]

go back to Justin Bieber

[@liminalmeow]

Just like your whole existence

[@axebox]

Fake opinion.
