Transgression

from Y3K Part One by Kerry Logan

/

about

The Y3K album is a conceptual piece about my 'spiritual reset' that occurred when I rediscovered the book of Romans through new eyes.
Transgression is an overview of the the whole experience for me. It starts with my belief in my own ability to resolve my own wrongdoing, the change in understanding and my ultimate realisation that only God can clear me of my wrong. This track also forms part of the Regression Suite, a massive concept album which will one day be completed. It is the 6th track from that and the first that has been released.

The song was first released on the 2012 album Demolicious, albeit with a pilot vocal track and without drums. After providing a blistering drum track, Bobby helped set this song on its way!

lyrics

Father, hear these words brought from the hole I’m in
Call to arms to level out the Transgression… yeah!

One ear to the diagnostic whisperings
A hole is found that will cause the end of things
It’s not just the blood loss from the hole that stings
So much more, the infection of guilt it brings!

Discovering the fresh wound, I end its sin
But I’m left with feeling faint – the drag begins
Effectiveness lessens as I’m drawn within
I can’t fight with parasites beneath the skin

It envelops me – moves to sink its teeth
I try to thrash against its theme, but I am left a reeling
Will not allow myself to give it away
Refuse to give in… fight on through the pain…

It’s only with open eyes that I see
I could never win this fight – stupid me
As I fade, God kicks in, brings it peace
Its only when I am strong that He feels weak

There is now no condemnation for those who
Are in Christ for he has met the debt of sin
Father, hear these words brought from the hole I’m in
Call to God to level out the Transgression… yeah!
