Tonight I listened to your story Heard the path you have walked How you took flight with angels And how you came crashing back to earth If I could I wish I could take all the hate in your heart Bury it in some forgotten chest and set it out to sea You say how you've become a shell Battered and bloodied The king of nothings Shackled to a spiteful god who will never know your name You say they only thing you ever loved was the way she made you feel How she flooded your veins and claimed your body like a battlefield And how everyday without her leaves you more hungry than the last
