I eat from the tree of knowledge
|
I eat your word and my sorrow
|
Catch me before the loss
|
Before bitterness overtakes me
|
I eat from the tree of knowledge
|
I eat and bare your shame
|
Trapped In Certainty
|
In the convulsive hold of impotence
|
My strength is vulnerable
|
Puts me to bed
|
Naked, bloody
|
Alive and warm
|
My strength is certainty
|
Forces me down
|
With the weight of the shadow
|
I eat
|
I eat
|
I eat
|
I eat
|
I eat
|
I eat
|
I eat
|
I eat
|
I eat from the tree of knowledge
|
I eat my courage from your mouth
|
Caught in parting
|
With a world
|
There prisons with words of praise and noise
|
The same hand that carried me
|
The same hand that chokes everything
|
(You choke everything)
|
The same hand that shields
|
The same hand I fear Today
|
(I fear Today)
|
The same hand that gave me life
|
The same hand that splits apart
|
(You're splitting apart)
|
You break your promise again
|
You break your promise again
|
My courage
|
It's dwindling
|
In disappointment
|
When eternal love dies
|
My courage
|
It's dwindling
|
In disappointment
|
When eternal love strikes
|
When eternal love dies
|
I eat
|
I eat
|
I eat
|
I eat from the tree of knowledge
|
I tear myself In my grief
|
Hiding my deprivation
|
From a care deserved by the vocation of fidelity
|
I am chained to the tree of knowledge
|
I am chained to fatherless comfort
|
An anchor in the past
|
With your burden of failure and secret alarm
|
I hang from the tree of knowledge
|
I am hanging from the crown of rust
|
Do you sink into discouragement
|
In the swamp of my devotion worth
|
I hang from the tree of evil
|
I suffocate myself In my grief
|
Blinded by certainty
|
In the relentless glare of realizations
|
The same hand that carried me
|
The same hand that chokes everything
|
(You choke everything)
|
The same hand that shields
|
The same hand I fear Today
|
(I fear Today)
|
The same hand that gave me life
|
The same hand that splits apart
|
(You're splitting apart)
|
You break your promise again
|
You break your promise again
|
My courage
|
It's dwindling
|
In disappointment
|
When eternal love strikes
|
My courage
|
It's dwindling
|
In disappointment
|
When eternal love dies
|
When eternal love dies |
