"Holy Visions" lyrics

"Holy Visions"

When the pen hides from my hand
It leaves me free to keep digging
Underground there is a man
Ever glowing, calling me home

Holy visions
Holy visions understand
Holy visions
Holy visions while in my left hand
Holding cheap beads, I'm going up and down the rosary
Holy visions

When the sun drops out of sight
It leaves me free to flutter reckless
Underground there is a girl (a glowing girl)
Burning brightly, calling me home

Holy visions
Holy visions understand
Holy visions
Holy visions while in my left hand
Holding cheap beads, I'm going up and down the rosary

Bright lights, and nothing less
Catching my eye, hung around your neck
Cheap beads, a soft scarlet
Catching your eyes, draped around my neck

Holy visions

Holy visions understand
Holy visions
Holy visions while in my left hand
Holding cheap beads, I'm going up and down the rosary
Going up and down the rosary
Holding cheap beads, I'm going up and down the rosary
Holy visions

AFI's frontman Davey Havok told the following about "Holy Visions" released with its music video on the 9th of September, 2025, "It's a bit tongue-in-cheek. It addresses the concept of right and wrong, and good versus evil, and what is truly evil and is truly good, and whether or not there is such a thing, while also mocking organized religion." The song was the second track unveiled from AFI's twelfth album, "Silver Bleeds The Black Sun..." (their new music in four years) following the first single "Behind The Clock".
