these fingers so frail paint in my mind
|
scars down the back of my eyes
|
death walks with me alone tonight
|
the coldness whispers it's almost near
|
rest for soon it will be over
|
years flash before my and i understand why i'm here
|
no one will ever know, as the pictures come clear
|
don't worry they tell me this feeling won't last forever
|
voices beating their drums in my heart
|
the water looks so peaceful below and the struggle lets go
|
climbing over the wall of life's edge
|
leaving behind the smiles of yesterday
|
the light that shined has vanished to a grayscale of night
|
tears once present now look into the dryness inside
|
silent words enter the sky screamed
|
from this body as a reply, and these words begin to write
|
dear lord, if these break the earth
|
and enter your courts save me tonight
|
time is short and the hurt of death grows with every breath
|
here i am at the end
|
this wall that blocked you out for so long opens wide
|
and i begin to burn from the inside
|
i'll never forget that night
|
the night Jesus Christ made the blackness white
|
