      @@c2e.7877 you'll find in a lot of old wives' tales about honor, betraying a guest to be a common occurrence. basically, when you invite someone into your home, you are giving them your word in their wellbeing, and in your hospitality. it's a significant thing, morally, to honor this understanding, as the guest trusts you. you are offering them trust by taking them under your roof.
      so it's an extremely heinous and dishonorable thing to go against that standard and harm your guest. to trick and betray them, killing them under your care. it's seen as most sinister and atrocious to betray a common code. think of game of thrones: the red wedding was seen as an atrocity all across Westeros whether people were allies or enemies to the Starks (the guests in the castle). in the same show, one of the characters tells of a tale of a lord killing his guests' sons and baking them into a pie to feed to their father. the lord is then cursed by the gods to be an endlessly starving monster. another character asks if it was because he cooked them and fed them to his father (because that is obviously insanely evil), but the storyteller says "no. the gods care little for cruelty. he had to be punished, you see, because they were guests in his home, and he betrayed his word."

    When you deal with years of physical abuse, hearing that "stop..STOP" scream is so triggering yet strangely so cathartic. I can feel her pain. Her helplessness. Her grief. Her strength- I can hear it all because i experienced all those things. The trauma lasts more than people want to admit. It's in everyday things like when someone oversteps your boundaries, personal space, or patience. When they raise their voice at you, when they touch you, when they make jokes at your expense. All you want to do is defend yourself or run away and cry in silence. After all these years and i'm still fighting. I'm still waiting for the day i get my peace.

    "What fear a man like you brings upon a woman like me" Is such a raw and deeply unfortunate line that reflects reality far too often. It resonates with me, as a woman, and is something almost instinctual that lays in our bones from thousands and thousands of years of violence perpetuated against us on all levels and for all excuses and reasons.

    At the very start I feel like Isaiah was talking to her, but the next voice is literally Death. Basically telling her that it's too late. Isaiah attacked her at the beginning of the song. That's why she can't stop it, and that's why Death was like, "there's nothing you can do. It's already been done." She's already dying. She's just been refusing to believe it.

    ♡ Lyrics:
    I followed you in and I was with you there
    I invited you in twice, I did
    You love blood too much
    But not like I do, not like I do
    Suffer does the wolf, crawling to thee
    Promising a big fire, any fire
    Saying I'm the one, he's gonna take me
    I'm on fire, I'm on fire, I'm on fire
    Suffering is nigh, drawing to me
    Calling me the one, I'm the white light
    Beautiful, finite
    Even the iron still fears the rot
    Hiding from something I cannot stop
    Walking on shadows, I can't lead him back, uh
    Buckled on the floor when night comes along
    Daddy's left and momma won't come home
    You poor thing
    Sweet, mourning lamb
    There's nothing you can do
    It's already been done
    What fear a man like you brings upon a woman like me (show your face)
    Please, don't look at me
    I can see it in your eyes, he keeps looking at me
    Turn me, what have you done?
    Stop, stop (make it stop), stop, make it stop, stop
    Make it stop
    Make it stop, I've had enough
    Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop
    I am the face of love's rage
    I am the face of love's rage
    Blessed be the Daughters of Cain, bound to suffering eternal through the sins of their fathers committed long before their conception
    Blessed be their whore mothers, tired and angry waiting with bated breath in a ferry that will never move again
    Blessed be the children, each and every one come to know their god through some senseless act of violence
    Blessed be you, girl, promised to me by a man who can only feel hatred and contempt towards you
    I am no good nor evil, simply I am, and I have come to take what is mine
    I was there in the dark when you spilled your first blood
    I am here now, as you run from me still
    Run then, child, you can't hide from me forever

    Honestly, Ptolemaea really speaks to me. I’m a poor autistic girl that grew up in the south. And I’ve been abused by men. For me, the building, overwhelming nature of Ptolemaea, really feels similar to the escalation of being berated by the man you love, afraid he’s going to hit you. The noise of things hitting the wall, of his rage. The expectation for you, the lamb, to bend to his will. To retain your “purity”. The “betrayal” of every imagined infraction that you commit. And all of your senses are extra sensitive and you don’t know what you did to deserve this. The only thing you did was reject his sexual advances. The part where she screams “stop” felt like an amalgamation of those feelings and it honestly makes me cry my eyes out. I find myself silently screaming with her. It’s so therapeutic. I know that isn’t the meaning of this song. But that’s how I interpret it because of my experiences. And I think that’s the beauty of her music.

      I use music like this as a way to feel catharsis. I’m not a vulnerable person and there are some traumas you just can’t bring up when your friend figures out you aren’t really fine, and it’s just never been comfortable for me. So I just sort of hide them from myself. But when they try to resurface I turn to music that skiers close to my experiences, or if it’s more vague, at least captures the emotions. It lets me release it on my terms because someone already said the words and I can just sing along, if I’m alone. I can stop my release at any time, which is harder if you actually do try and open up. We have all been pressured to talk and all of it comes out when you didn’t want to share everything just yet. For some reason with music, the feelings don’t linger at the front of your mind and make you feel worse after the release is over, like talking about it with people.

      It gets VERY dark lore wise as this song is her character getting sa’d, murdered, and then cannibalized.
      She goes to heaven after this and looks back at her life and gets conflicted because she’s very upset at what he’s done to her, but still has feelings for him. She then decides to kill him from the grave by food poisoning.

    No joke, a friend of mine used Strangers in a presentation about horror in music and theater and I was instantly intrigued. She described that the album Preacher's Daughter was a scary album about a preacher girl getting caught up in a romance with a psycho cannibal killer and knew I had to give it a try. Being a self-described metal head, I charged head first with an eager interest and WOW. I have never heard a blend of sounds like this before! It is also genuinely terrifying as well! It honestly reminds me of hearing groups like Meshuggah for the first time in terms of sheer brutality yet beauty as well. There's such a wide mix of genres here I'm almost certainly Ethel Cain has invented a new one with this album. It is way more than your average pop singer-songwriter kind of music. I wouldn't even bat an eye if she opened for a death metal band with tracks like this. One thing is certain, and that is I am now a big fan of her's! If Ethel happens to be reading this, I love what I've heard so far and can't wait to see what you do next! :)

    “I followed you in and I was with you there
    I invited you in twice, I did
    You love blood too much
    But not like I do
    Not like I do
    Heard you, saw you, felt you, gave you
    Need you, love you, love you, love you
    Heard you, saw you, felt you, love you
    Love you, love you, love you, love you
    Love you, love you, love you, love you
    Love you, love you, love you, love you...
    You don't have to say yes to me
    Suffer does the wolf, crawling to thee
    Promising a big fire, any fire
    Saying I'm the one, he's gonna take me
    I'm on fire, I'm on fire, I'm on fire
    Suffering is nigh, drawing to me
    Calling me the one, I'm the white light
    Beautiful, finite
    Even the iron still fears the rot
    Hiding from something I cannot stop
    Walking on shadows, I can't lead him back, uh
    Buckled on the floor when night comes along
    Daddy's left and momma won't come home, oh, uh
    You poor thing
    Sweet, mourning lamb
    There's nothing you can do
    It's already been done
    What fear a man like you brings upon a woman like me (show me your face)
    Please, don't look at me
    I can see it in your eyes, he keeps looking at me
    Tell me, what have you done?
    Stop, stop, stop, make it stop
    Stop, make it stop, make it stop
    I've had enough
    Stop, stop, stop, stop
    Stop, stop, stop, stop
    I am the face
    Of love's rage
    I am the face
    Of love's rage
    Blessed be the Daughters of Cain
    Bound to suffering eternal through the sins of their fathers committed long before their conception
    Blessed be their whore mothers
    Tired and angry, waiting with bated breath in a ferry that will never move again
    Blessed be the children
    Each and every one come to know their god through some senseless act of violence
    Blessed be you, girl
    Promised to me by a man who can only feel hatred and contempt towards you
    I am no good nor evil, simply I am
    And I have come to take what is mine
    I was there in the dark when you spilled your first blood
    I am here now, as you run from me still
    Run then, child
    You can't hide from me forever”

    The perfectly ambivalent chill and tension that comes from reliving abuse willingly. The warm, dense feeling that comes from leaning into your depression. And the disassociative glare that fills the empty space between the falls. There is a strange comfort in all this that sticks to your conscience and rests in the recesses of your mind untill it pushes to the front and takes control. Those are the emotions and thoughts that come to me from this song. Truly a masterpiece. Very very few songs can make me FEEL like this one does. It almost becomes impossible for me not to regress into my thoughts and internalize every ephemeral synaptic connection much more deeply. The emotions flow smoother, and its almost cathartic in a chaotic manner. Thank you Ethel.

    I feel understood with this track. Its comfortable and unnerving at the same time. This is how i have lived most of my life, always on edge with the falsehoods of peace by people around me. internally i have rage and twisted thoughts due to years of neglect and being forced into emotional isolation by my parents. This feels like a release

    This album was recommended to me so I went in blind and am listening straight thru. For a lot of the songs I was like "ah, indie folk. This is full of feeling but still very chill somehow. I guess that's what it all is. But I'll keep going just in case."
    And then I got to the song before this.
    And then I got to this.
    Literally life-changing. Earth-shattering art.

    I love this song not only because of the dark aura, but it totally represent the feeling of feeling disgusted of yourself and not for the abuser, you feel gross, weak, disgusting, icky, because it's always your fault, its never his it's yours, and even after all, years pass and you think you got over it, that you got free from him, when you try to get pleasure for yourself (like segs etc) you feel extremely disgusted, realizing he never really left you alone. Well thats what I feel when I hear this song, the hate and the anger, everything (also I love Ethel Cain so much, thank you for this masterpiece)
