Dogs Can Grow Beards All Over lyrics

@fhemsworth, all of the songs by the devil wears prada have a meaning.

The title itself is a meaning. Dogs back in biblical times were looked down upon, and was used to describe an evil and unholy person or thing. Now this part may sound weird, but for disguises, people will wear fake beards. So "dogs can grow beards all over" can translate to "sin can hide anywhere, at any given time".

"welcome to the war. Welcome to the war. A martyr's challenge. " i think "the war" is referring to how christians spread the lord's name, either in their community, or all around the world. "a martyr's challenge" is if you are faced with a difficulty, will you keep faith in god?

"chainsaw brutality. Tornado strength. " i think this line is referring to how strong and aggressive satan can be, so he can lead you astray.

"king of the diamond. King of the grave. " jesus is the true savior, saving all who believe in him from death and bringing us forth into eternal salvation.

"lawlessness stains black on whitewashed doubts. We're too strong to compromise. Don't be ashamed of your faith. " sin is making us impure, but god has mercy on us, so he will forgive us, so don't bother trying to disown our faith, "we're too strong to compromise. " no matter how much persecution you get, you should never be ashamed in your christianity.

"dear lord-deliver me from hypocrisy and surcease. The scarlet desire. " mike is asking god to free him of this corrupt world, so he may live with him in heaven. "the scarlet desire" is referring to the blood jesus shed on the cross for us.

"he wears a slick jacket and a gold watch. Her dishonesty has scarred hands. He wears a slick jacket. " "he" is satan. Even though he looks cool and has nice things, inside him is pure evil. "she" is the people of the world, and their constant lies is scarring what they do. "

That is how i see it. If you have a different view, don't be mad at me for it.
