Inanition
I fall broken on my shattered world
To lay beside you when You burn me down
When heaps of ashes hush the million voices
And you don't even make a sound
Just your frown turned upside-down
That frown turned upside-down
Now our pride has turned to madness
Killing everyone You love
And everything You hated I have loved
The message of the cross has made me weak
And I will mock you with my theories
So long, so much so wrong
So much so wrong
So much so very wrong with us
We took the "right pills" when the sky was falling
Appointing jesters to their dusty pulpits
Inventing ways of candy-coating truth
Preaching shameful inanition
Cutting deep to numb the bone
So much so wrong
It feels so right
So much so very wrong
We cannot see the Light
And we cannot see You as You break us
