UNHAPPY I, OF ALL HELP BEREFT,
WHO AGAINST HEAVEN AND EARTH HAVE OFFENDED. TO HEAVEN I DARE NOT LIFT MY EYES FOR AGAINST HER GRIEVOUSLY I HAVE SINNED.
ON EARTH I FIND NO REFUGE FOR TO HER I HAVE BECOME AN OUTRAGE.
TO YOU THEREFORE, MOST LOVING GOD, SAD AND SORROWFUL I COME. WORDS OF SORROW I SHALL POUR OUT, YOUR MERCY I SHALL BEG, AND I SHALL SAY: HAVE MERCY ON ME O GOD ACCORDING TO YOUR GREAT COMPASSION

And now for some music
“French might be the language of love, but German is the language of anger”—Oliver Riedel
Time for a music video.
Today Melancholicus is angry, hence the music will be in German.
Isn't that a bit satanic? Not quite the way "to survive the shipwreck of the modern world with faith intact"! I don't think Pope Benedict would approve either! But I have said a little prayer that your cares might be lightened.
Wherein lies the offence? The lyrics? The voice? The music? Not the language, surely?
There being nothing in the song contrary to either faith or morals, I have no problem giving it my nihil obstat. In any case, it expressed my mind perfectly at the time I put up this post last Thursday.
Prayers are always appreciated, however, so I thank you for your charity.
