lyrics

Walking away on this terrible day
When the world has no use left for me.
Leaving her there with a cold distant stare
Has taught me what loneliness can be.

The world is on fire, in golden attire
And time travels slowly as it burns.
A promise must be kept, another body for the pyre,
Before god’s mercy can return.

Bear me now to my childhood home,
Relieve me of all that I’ve done.
This is a loveless world that I roam.
Deliver me from the judgment of the sun.

To the coal and the dark, a lost believer’s leap –
Silently, I descend to my rest.
To all god’s children being wrestled to sleep –
In the end I’m sure it’s for the best.
