Debilitated beams of moonlight enter
This darkened church as I kneel
Always sorrowful, always lost
Frigid here as I wait
Tortured silhouettes fashioned in panes of glass
As dust dances in the air
Creating an image in my mind
Penetrating my humiliated flesh
With the colorlessness of humanity's face
I raise my head, now kneeling before
This merciless mortality.

Debilitated beams of moonlight enter
This darkened church as I kneel
Always sorrowful, always lost
Frigid here as I wait
Tortured silhouettes fashioned in panes of glass
As dust dances in the air
Creating an image in my mind
Penetrating my humiliated flesh
With the colorlessness of humanity's face
I raise my head, now kneeling before
This merciless mortality.
