this is me at my darkest
|
looking down from my tower to heaven
|
my reputation is what i am on the scale
|
in the eyes of mankind
|
the more i get beneath me,
|
the higher, and more out of reach
|
teacher, which of us will be the greatest
|
|
we will wear compassion
|
we will wear it on our chests
|
and sing with love at our throats
|
like a child, its all i know
|
|
Father, hide our hearts in you
|
lest we steal them back
|
and lay them at the feet of men
|
i know now that glory has not a place
|
near my hands or any man
|
