| Come, now child! |
| All of this is temporary:
|
| I am merely a vessel bearing this curse
|
| And I can only run for so long
|
| Come now Lord, your dwelling place is now with men
|
| Send your rain, then open up the sky!
|
| They say you’re coming soon, but Lord, it’s been so long
|
| I’m starting to lose sight
|
| The solace of licking my wounds has led me to compromise my faith
|
| In all you stood to create
|
| There’s no sun or moon, for You will burn so bright
|
| We will become shadows in the warmth of your light
|
| I’m tired of being so thin, so in need of constant reassurance to fill the
|
| holes in my chest, and I’m cracking, I’m finally breaking. |
| Oh, let me crumble
|
| 'till I’m nothing more than dust, and remake me to withstand myself and this
|
| separation. |
| They say all we have is ourselves, but this is so obviously not
|
| enough. |
| So many times I’ve felt like giving up and I’m holding on by my
|
| fingertips and I feel like screaming, I feel so alone. |
| And though I’ve heard
|
| your voice before, for my feeble mind, I fear it is not enough
|
| Catch glimpse of a falling star
|
| Illuminating the depths of our world
|
| And burning away the pestilence of mankind
|
| Oh my god, send your rain!
|
| There will be no more death or mourning, no more crying or pain
|
| For the old order of things has passed away. |
| Write this down:
|
| All of this has passed away! |
| It is done! |
