Reborn

Each night we lay in hell, Praying for heaven and hoping for death
Each night we lay in silence, Praying for peace and hoping for breath
Each night we lay in turmoil, Praying for change and hoping for light
Each night we lay in chaos, Praying for demons to be eternally contrite

Sink into me, Let me consume your every breath and heartbeat
Surround me with your arms and I will surround you with hope
In waves of crushing light, Your soul will be overwhelmed with truth
You will be reborn, An angel once more, No longer will you be numb

Every tongue is forked and forged in the bowels of a place once condemned
Our minds are written in blood and are forced to think of everlasting peace
Their hands hold our dreams, Our heart coming apart at every bloodied seam
We flee from the womb to the grave, To escape their loving embraces

Live through me, Let your eulogy be read through my eyes
Wrap your thoughts around me and I will think through you
Giving you new breath, New life, New meaning and purpose
You will be absorbed and shown in marble and molten glass

You could never be replaced by angel or devil
Your heart could never be bled dry or overflow
Your eyes could never hold all your sorrow
You must give up to give in to give back to you
