    Loving 80's music, electronic, etc I have always liked such artists as INXS, Depeche Mode, etc. Every time I hear Depeche Mode's, "Condemnation" I feel they could be singing about ex-JW's or any person leaving a cult or hard situation. What do you think?

    Condemnation
    Tried
    Here on the stand
    With the book in my hand
    And truth on my side

    Accusations
    Lies
    Hand me my sentence
    I'll show no repentance
    I'll suffer with pride

    If for honesty
    You want apologies
    I don't sympathize
    If for kindness
    You substitute blindness
    Please open your eyes

    Condemnation
    Why
    Because my duty
    Was always to beauty
    And that was my crime

    Feel elation
    High
    To know I can trust this
    Fix of injustice
    Time after time

    If you see purity
    As immaturity
    Well it's no surprise
    If for kindness
    You substitute blindness
    Please open your eyes

    Regards,

    I like the lyrics too but (to me) kind of limited about what it is pointing at. What about blindness in kindness?
