give me the light my folded arms across my chest hold me down these crippled wings can't fly i got more than i bargained for take it all the burning is more than i can take clutched in aching hands i dream of long dead heroes i have let them down shrouded in sorrow i reach out to the shadows i can feel my dreams are dying my own purgatory the faithless live here all i have is this shroud of defeat bitter and forever how i long for new wings and new intentions please give me the light

Purgatory
give me the light my folded arms across my chest hold me down these crippled wings can't fly i got more than i bargained for take it all the burning is more than i can take clutched in aching hands i dream of long dead heroes i have let them down shrouded in sorrow i reach out to the shadows i can feel my dreams are dying my own purgatory the faithless live here all i have is this shroud of defeat bitter and forever how i long for new wings and new intentions please give me the light
