NOTES:
1. My apologies for any misheard lyrics but there are no published lyrics, on the internet.
These are lyrics that I currently hear and if there are 'mondogreens', I'll correct them.
2. Although Mandagi describes himself as "not a super religious person", he felt a desire to express his
beliefs in the liner notes, in response to what Mandagi claims is a "cynical" attitude towards
"anyone who has any belief." He further explained that, "for better or worse I learned a lot
of things from religion. People say you don’t need to attribute it to God, you don’t need to learn
what’s right and wrong from the Church. Of course that’s true, but it doesn’t change the fact
that’s where I learnt right and wrong."
