    Lyrics:
    Somewhere in the end of all this hate
    There's a light ahead
    That shines into this grave that's in the end of all this pain
    In the night ahead there's a light upon this
    House on a hill
    The living, living still
    Their intention is to kill and they will, they will
    But the children are doing fine
    I think about them all the time
    Until they drink their wine and they will, they will, they will
    Somewhere in the end we're all insane
    To think that light ahead can save us from this
    Grave that's in the end of all this pain
    In the night ahead there's a light upon this
    House on a hill
    The living, living still
    Their intention is to kill and they will, they will
    But the children are doing fine
    I think about them all the time
    Until they drink their wine and they will, they will, they will
    I am not afraid
    I won't burn out in this place
    My intention is to fade and I will, I will
    In this house on a hill
    The dead are living still
    Their intention is to kill and they will, they will
    Keep your children safe inside
    Out of pocket, out of mind
    Until they drink their wine and they will, they will, they will...

    I love this song. She has the perfect voice for this song and lyrics are just amazing. So true to the world we live in today with being fed this life is so beautiful until you walk out your door and see what the real world is. She just puts the world into lyrics and the crazy world we live in today. I love the fact she writes her own lyrics and have not heard a bad song from her. We have some critics however we all have our own beliefs in this life.

    Her voice is perfect for her music...nuanced, rich and full of harmonics, and attention arrestingly powerful. The band is a wonderfully supportive match to her growls and shrieking cries. She and the band accompany and frame each other as a symbiotic unit and are a well oiled machine...a Wall Of Sound that could teach Phil Spector new lessons on the meaning of the term that it's been thought he invented. I confess that The Pretty Reckless is for me a recently discovered and newly acquired guilty pleasure.
    However, I must also admit that the pleasure does come with some guilt accompanied by some dissatisfaction. Although I appreciate how well they've mastered their personal musical niche, I leave the experience with some aftertaste of the aggravation that comes from tedium. The pervasive theme of rebellion, particularly against religion and the prevailing religion of the west, eventually rings hollow. While in private conversation The Pretty Reckless might reveal some positivity that fuels aspirations that give them reason to wake up each morning (or afternoon), that wall of sound signals little more than a raised fist of opposition. The Pretty Reckless is another example of railing against a church, its theology and its symbols which Momsen and company would have to invent if they weren't already conveniently at hand as grist for shock and awe. While their sound can overwhelm and exhilarate, their trappings and affectations are eventually parodies of themselves that are revealed as contrivances and ultimately silly, undermining the scariness that all the mascara, eye shadow, power chords and theatrical embracing of darkness try so hard to maintain.

    I showed this song to my teacher and classmate in first period. Our teacher wanted us to do a song project that has to do with our identity, and I picked this song as my first choice. After listening to it with the whole class, I told them why it fits into my identity while telling them what this song is talking about, but I ended up crying in front of everyone since this is the most emotional song I ever listened to. It may be embarrassing for to cry in front of my classmates, but at least it's worth telling them my feelings about this song and how it fits into my identity.

      You like strings, you say? Check out Master of Puppets by Metallica, I bet you'll like that as well! And if Kermy and Mrs. Piggy ever get married and James Hetfield could be the pastor of muppets! Whoah, talk about pulling strings...

      @@kennylauer412 Cheers - You are totally correct - preaching to the converted a brilliant album - got that when it was released ... funny to think it was 7 years before the lovely Taylor was born .....

    This is one of my favorite songs. My 16 month old digs it too. He will just sit on my knee and watch the video and ignore everything else going on around him.

    I think when it comes to child stars becoming musical sex icons, Taylor destroys Miley Cyrus by talent alone, not to mention beauty
