lyrics

There’s the sun hanging over the sky
It meant to preach, but only carries a sigh
There’s a moon that returns on the sly
Leaves you helplessly out of light in your eyes

There’s a church, but there are no saints in sight
Or believers who’ll make it through the night
There’s a living that cycles and smites
Leaves you drained like a dull parasite

Hold me, lay me down

There’s a time that never comes to an end
It goes beyond what we can both comprehend
There’s a flock of souls that never ascends
Indulged in sins that no repent can amend

There’s an itch I’ve got since I don’t know when
Eats me up, but it was gentle back then
There’s a hope that keeps us howling amen
But then our days return time and time again

Hold me, lay me down

On a moonlit eve, a fiend rose from beneath
Poured malicious revelation into ears already conquered
Spoke of the ceaseless turning of the hourglass of existence
Said better days were far behind my wilting heart
All the wailing and gnashing of teeth wouldn’t offer deliverance
All the dreams of tomorrow stranded in a purgatory
How to come to terms with such undying burden
But to get lost in the dreadful brume of despair?

I’ve got no more use for whining
There’s only so much I can do
I’ve met the length of my limits
Now I can only count on you
To share the weight life holds on us
To coexist and meander
Maybe this is all we have left
Maybe this isn’t so bad at all

Hold my hand the way you hold on to life
A grip so firm, makes me feel alive
And well, I guess I’m a lucky man
And I’ll remain so as long as I can
Exult and mourn along with you all
Who ache and still put up with my faults
Who gaze with me into the unknown
I know at last that I’m not alone

And if I should fall behind
I’ll part ways with you still bearing a smile
Not out of relief, you’ll find
But because you made all my life worthwhile

And if you should leave us soon
I’ll pass on all of your legacy
I’ll sing your name on a tune
And capture you in a melody

Let it recur, let it return
If it does, I won’t come undone
I’ll thrust ahead into your arms
A sacred place that knows no harm
I’m looking forward to be back
Even if the night is pitch black

Find your worth and taste rebirth.

This is endless.
