Album Rating: 3.5
lol I found this on a song meaning discussion website about the song Judith:
"Well seeing how Maynard talks about god positively in most of tool and APC albums. I'd say just assuming, like in
most of his songs, is a mistake.
You have to listen a little deeper, to get the real meaning.
Most of Tool is sang for a group perspecitve, whist most of APC is personal, fist person. This song is the APC verson
of Eulogy. Maynard is really hard of Preachers, and some of his lyircs seem to damn the catholic church.
Also, my ex had a interesting theory. Before me she was in bad relationship, where in her ex was horrably mentally
controlling. She posed that he was her "Christ" in this song.
When she whould get fed up, he would make her feel gulity for trying to leave, causing the cycle to begin anew.
"Still you pray, never stray, never
Taste of the fruit
Never thought to question why"
and
"It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side
Praise the one who left you broken down and paralyzed
He did it all for you"
I really do thing this is lest about fath and more about a girl that idolizes an abusive boyfriend.
"Fuck your god
Your lord, your Christ
He did this
Took all you had and
Left you this way"
