* "Good to Be Alive" is a very upbeat and optimistic song, which is perfect for sunny days and happiness. However, at the end of it, there is an extremely creepy interlude to the next song on the album ("Not Gonna Die",complete with a [[CreepyChildrenSinging an eerie child's voice]] and an equally creepy chamber choir singing. Not to mention that the lyrics of this interlude are quite disturbing. This can be incredibly unsettling, especially after listening to such an upbeat song.
--> Despair, you come to me, with your poison and your misery.
--> Oh death, you come to sting, with your poison and your misery.
--> Death! Death! Death! Death! Death!
--> Death surrounds me, singing to me softly.
--> Let the shadow spread his wings around me
--> In the night, close your eyes, or it means to come in.
--> This is how it feels when you're bent and broken.
--> This is how it feels when your dignity's stolen.
--> Singing to me softly.
--> In the night, close your eyes, or it means to come in.
--> I'll be here to call back.
--> I can feel the shadow creeping in my mind.
--> '''Don't close your eyes.'''

** It's even more disturbing because John Cooper revealed in a radio interview that the song is inspired by the movie Literature/TheRing.

* "Monster" can be this as well, namely the version with the out-of-nowhere death growl. Lyrics about turning into some kind of uncontrollable creature and wanting nothing more than to be set free hits more than a few primal fear buttons...

* The end of "Rise" where a teacher calls 911 as a gunman is breaking into her classroom. She screams for her students to hide under the tables just before the line cuts off. It's every dispatcher's worst nightmare come true. It's a partial clip of Patti Nielson's RealLife 911 call from the Columbine High School massacre.

* Fingernails. It's uncharacteristic brutality both instrumentally and vocally, along with sympathy pain-inducing lyrics makes for Skillet's darkest and most disturbing work.
