The Devil's Bleeding Crown Lyrics

Falling from the sky, they're cast out from the heaven's light
Drenching the soil with blood, baptized in the fire hole

The Devil's spawn no longer breathes
Descending angels and fallen kings
Raise your hands, what do you hold?
The...

   To me, it is about trying not to be the awful people our parents may have been. That people think you're going to be just like them, but you try and try to rise above it. They'll fight you, they'll treat you the same, and part of you wants to be just like them but is above it.

   It's about a future war between dogs and cats.
   The cats are all like, "look at me I do nothing and get treated better than you!"
   And dogs are all like, " aw hell no, I'm eating you!"

   They are talking about the fall of rock n roll. Cast aside to shit music. Even though the crown bleeds rock n roll is coming back.

   The way I look at it there's evil men everywhere when you're evil you want to be the worst when you go to hell you're not a fallen angel your a demon but nobody wears the crown of evil like Satan and he's coming back for what he thinks is his the world and it will go down between God and Satan and God will win but still kick ass song

   Here is my take.
   
   I think it is about the ability for anyone to do evil; To become the devil. We look back at evil people and their fall. We see them as evil. They at one point were good, but had the same ability to do evil as we have in our own hands. Even people whom attend church and consider themselves holy are not immune to evil. You hold his crown, the Devil can do evil through you. But the crown is in your hands you have to choose to put it on.

   It's about there being sin throughout all time. In the video it shoes different time periods kinda. The greasers in the garage, the bikers in the kitchen, the punk rock kids in their room rocking out. It's about how everyone perceives things as being evil but aren't really evil.

   Well God did create it all. Its balence for one and balence can never be broken cant be completly bad or good. Iv seen saten transperent and only for a few minutes and i aint crazy either but i ignored him and i wasnt affraid either it was a sign that i still dont completly understand to this day. Its all within us all . U can create your own heaven or hell by either negitive or positive energy withen yourselfs.

   What if Evil was the key to world peace? People don't know anything about it because they didn't step foot in their own hell. Once you come out of it, Satan has a different face. He doesn't care about liers hiding behind their own walls, shiny cars and huge houses, in fact, they are very boring to him. When you meet Satan and accept to be transparent before him, you free yourself. People don't look in the right direction for peace within. Archangels are meaner than Lucifer.

    Simply a story of good vs. Evil.
    Evil cannot be destroyed, only banished. And because there is always some fool thinking to control it.

    His horns of power have been broken but he wants his former glory back and thinks he deserves more. Satan will do anything to destroy all...

    I believe it's stating how they( angels now devil and his legion) were cast out of heaven and sent to hell but letting you know that the devil is here and wants to rule. The bleeding crown part I feel is there because Jesus was crucified with a crown of thorns on his head.

    It sounds like the battle between the devil and church leaders/preachers and how spiritually painful and violent it can be as they struggle not to be overtaken by the evil.
