lyrics

What are your fears
What brings you tears
The simple little small things
Those tiny creeping crawling things
The power to restore
Hope to the hopeless
Life to the lifeless
An ending to the endless
Whatever may come may it come soon
Wherever you are under the moon
May I find you there might I try
Might I give you the gift of true sight
So far so very far from here
I learned that a single tear
Shed upon a pure white cheek
Enables the mute to begin to speak
So close so very near to you
I want to be I need to feel truth
Insane some call my brain
A curse a blemish a stain
A gift I say from high above
To reach beyond to understand love
The falsities the fractures of
The emptiness the clash of tongues
In a great new blackness we become
One and whole in my grim dawn
Created and belated but never truly gone
Berate me for my teeth shall never cease
To spew this sand this grit and grime
A slew of hands gripped tightly in mine
These hands speak they walk they talk
They know the secrets at which you balk
I am the glove I am the knife
I know true love I bring the light
I am all of the above I am the stars at night
I know of some who wish to begin the final fight
And it shall begin this final end
To spare the weak from the might
To bring the shadows to light
