lyrics

this world is dead
and i to it
may it be so
consume this home in flames
consume me
a fruitless pursuit
will not define my life
they throw themselves
fully into nothing
why chase the wind?
those scales lay behind me
if only the y could see
see you for who you are
pull the scales from their eyes
melt hearts like wax
spirit fall on them
break them like you broke me
arson upon me
spread beyond me
/
i drink this in
it's too great for me
understanding
is nowhere to be found
upon such atrocities
the questions, they compound
omniscient, omnipotent lord
i see but a fraction
please intercede
build something beautiful
from these ruins that i see
you've built with broken hearts
that others may see your work
you bring eternal
life from tragedy
may i not curs
what comes my way
prepare me for that day
i will not curse
what comes my way
build from broken lives
break mine if your will be done
everlasting beauty awaits...
