redeemer

 
my soul tears are rivers
where all my ghosts gather
haunting my mind

restless spirits I can't lay to rest
days I wasn't my best
days I let people down
lovers I lost
words I can't take back

they pool inside me
my regrets
I'm hurting within me breaking

stirring in my memories
a different place and time
your face shine so bright

in the shadows I fade,
with my secrets sewn into my lace
you smile at me
and I blush

a passion so deep kiss my soul
you reach in and fill my need
in the darkness where I dwell with a pain so great
I grieve on the aether and you felt me

I weep parables on the winds
you captured my tears and turn them to diamonds
I had stars in my eyes for you

gentle redeemer brought me to my knees with your love
pulled me from my throne with your desire
I murder the sun for a taste of you

you brought down the dark
and swallowed the night that was inside me
