Lyrics My Wilderness - Holy Esque

My Wilderness

Son, wipe my tears and run
This cruelty’s won
My shadow came undone
And ate my soul alive
Until I weep and die
The feeling’s hard
I’m tired can’t you see
This wicked old disease
Consumes us all and hope
Will splinter to pain
We all end up the same
Smashed bones out in the rain
They crumble into ash
And pass with the last
Whispered goodbye — you gave to me
Hear it crawl
Suffering all
Bore it all
In death and life
Everything ends
Will angels fend?
Salvation sends
Your cold hands
My sorrow
Which holds my head tomorrow?
Don’t tell me
You’re dying
Now, those final days approach
Sudden, sharp and hold
Me in your loving arms
Until this tundra folds
And all my worries go
Like nothing in the sand
Give me your hand
Until you go
The spider crawls
Across my throat
Webs evolve
I choke and die
A poison laid
Her grip’ll fade
It’s too late
Your cold hands, my sorrow
Who remains tomorrow?
Don’t tell me
You’re dying
With a brutal crashing wave
Oh my eyes you cannot save
From the terror that I’ll bear
Will I scream in this nightmare?
Oh the unknown takes a tole
But the truth I’ll never know
If I’ll see your face again
Oh I know I won’t
Your hands fall
This sorrow
Will you breathe tomorrow?
Don’t tell me you’re dying
Heaven knows I’m trying
An escape, from heartbreak
Everything that it takes
Don’t tell me you’re dying
Heaven knows I’m crying
