lyrics

Wait For Me

Not for nothing or no purpose, I’ve made myself
The vanished thoughts lay out like prayer books, on winter rooms
He is upright but falling down
The body and its empire are dying
Turns to a force that outstretched long ago
The wild regrets the strangled sweat, will thirst

He dreams alone with so many
This is a lie to me but you
See all this mess as beauty

How can you be so seduced by imperfect tones?
So pleased to gaze dull light, than see shadows born
Lock myself in, if I fail I shall be alone
My Christ is something that I can reach out and hold
Among the clouds is my image of man
And what she carries is what destroyed us all

Passion and crimes they will punish
Us all for what we perceive
Human wisdom to be

I got lost in perfection, mind and memory ran away
Self-abuse for a vacant illusion brought a thousand yesterdays

He dreams alone with so many
This is a lie to me but you
See all this mess as beauty
