lyrics

I search my soul, for a way to retrieve the embrace of arms, the blinding of the sun. Eyes weathered, voice weary. The heart that gave blood for me. Never watched this one grow, never returned was the gift.

Cursed was the air you breathed for me… the dread you weathered for me...

I search the past and find the torment in you: the one who carried the burdens of all. I reach for the loving arms, I reach for the times. While I watch you fade… one by one, they all fall.

Looked up to this face and saw God. The promise of becoming more, the promise to grow strong. The dare of a dream, the dare of a hope… broken. The wretched one am I. Weak, withdrawn and pale am I.

The springs eternal. Death is eternal. Facing failure, torn asunder. Dreams of my hopeless heaven, reality elusive. Against her breast I knew not, that my joy was stolen…

As my skin becomes like leather against the world, still I reach for you. As the pressure behind my eyes builds, still I reach for you. Against my wishes, bereft of the right, still I reach for you. In shame, in anguish my tears are summoned as I reach for you…

She who suffers. She who judges not. I feel you bleed the air. I breathe of your despair. Who gives all life, soothes and cleanses. The rose in my cheek, I owe my rotting flesh.

Judge me, and find me worthy. For it is disintegration that I long for. I breathe your name as my life's blood releases, that I may die in worship under the gaze of the most cherished. In the poison of the day, I find only malice. You wreathe me in leaves and call to me with death…

I dream of the return, of the times things were better. With the wool pulled over my eyes, nursing the fantasy. Against her breast I knew not, all the good in me was made, of what they ripped from you…
