Pride you took Pride you feel Pride that you felt when you'd kneel
Not the word Not the love Not what you thought from above
It feeds It grows It clouds all that you will know Deceit
Deceive Decide just what you believe
(**) I see faith in your eyes Never you hear the discouraging lies
I hear faith in your cries Broken is the promise, betrayal
The healing hand held back by the deepened nail
Follow the god that failed
Find your peace Find your say Find the smooth road on your way
Trust you gave A child to save Left you cold and him in grave
It feeds It grows It clouds all that you will know
Deceit Deceive Decide just what you believe
(**)
Pride you took Pride you feel Pride that you felt when you'd kneel
Trust you gave A child to save Left you cold and him in grave
(**)
The central theme of the song is faith and human reliance on it, and of unrewarded belief in a God that fails to heal. The lyrics and song material were inspired by Hetfield's anguish on the circumstances surrounding his mother's death. She died of cancer after refusing medical attention, solely relying on her belief in God to heal her. Hetfield felt that had she not followed her Christian Science beliefs, she could have survived (wikipedia)
