Mandibles - Shadow

Send your demons down to the warehouse
Have them ask a-a-around
And abscond with the glowing remnants
Of a promise waiting to be found
They’ll end up double-crossing
Long on burgers, short on plans
Send in loyal reinforcements
To get the case and cut off their hands

Pre
Ask anyone
And all will say the same:
There ain’t any chance in hell
That guy in heaven will clear your name

Chorus
Mr. Wallace you fallen angel
Guarding the ancient ark you stole
Coveter of the covenant
Had you thought it would make you whole

He sees you sneaking, creeping, pleading
For your place of honor to be restored
He sees no reason to grant you entry
He is never gonna open up those doors

Are you hoping he wants those tablets badly
enough that any organism
With them in hand gets a Scott-free plan
To transcend your earthly prison?

Hate to break it to you mate
But he the big cheese sees all there’s to see
Dirty dealing with deceitful demons
Aren’t exactly his cup of tea

some good melodies here but the mix is really weird, the lead vocals overpower everything and I can barely hear the drums and guitars. Think there’s a decent song in there, it just needs a little more polish. The lyrics are a bit too specific for my liking (see above comments on fan theories in general) but they’re cleverly written.
