The Mark |
Steal it, take it, know my name in loving memory |
Sand it, brand it, in your brain, a forthright eulogy |
I am but a sinner here, my faults are underlined |
I have but to hold you near to cleanse the sins of time |
I have known you, all too well |
I have shown you, all too well |
I have thrilled you, all too well |
I have filled you, with the sense of what you need to |
Speak up, calling my name out |
Speak up, the shattering of doubt |
This is where you start |
With nails run through your heart |
Leave the name, burned in the brain |
Leave your mark |
Find it, blind it with your light or curse to be alive |
Will it, kill it in your night, commit yourself to thrive |
You are but a sinner hear, each breath is now your crime |
You have but to shed a tear, to wash away the time |
I have known you, all too well |
I have shown you, all too well |
I have thrilled you, all too well |
I have filled you, with the sense of what you need to |
Speak up, calling my name out |
Speak up, the shattering of doubt |
This is where you start |
With nails run through your heart |
Leave the name, burned in the brain |
Leave your mark |
Give me your principles, values and hope |
Or I’ll take them away |
Not so convincible if you can’t cope |
Or rise to the day |
Worn out the morals that lit up the path |
Now gone to the dark |
Frayed are the laurels, igniting the wrath |
They left in the mark |
Wrap me in darkness, wrap me in light |
Wrap me in indestructible light |
Way down the road it’s better, believe me |
Way down the road it’s gone (god) |
Carry the load, it’s harder, believe me |
Carry it to your dawn (a lightning rod) |
Way down the road it’s better, believe me |
Way down the road it’s gone (god) |
Carry the load, it’s harder, believe me |
Carry it to your dawn (a lightning rod) |
