lyrics

I've seen my life without the soul that longs for lush of sound,
I’ve heard the dreams that it might bring with voice so ‘neath the ground
I worry for the day that plague would cast it in my reach
In the guise of some sweet hope, of vanity to breach

Give me not the loss of love or drag the angels low
Give me not the sight of years to contemplate this blow
Take my sight if only now you leave my ears to keep
I know I’d wither quickly, and drown in godless sleep

For yes I know the grace I’ve held-your grace, I have we’ll reaped
I’ve sinned against my better years to accept no heavenly fleet
I’ve tainted joy among my peers and slit the fateful throat
I’ve duped and tricked that riddler to cross the bridge and gloat

I’ve sunken with the demons for a demon I may me,
But in my life of weakness I wish only to be free.

Take the world now take my freedom,
Wrap the chains around my eyes,
For in my hour of judgement
My souls no compromise

Give me not the loss of love or drag the angels low,
Give me not the sight of years to contemplate this blow
Take my sight if only now you leave my ears to keep
I know I’d wither quickly and drown in godless sleep.
