Lower One's Eyes

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done to me, betrayer Throw your stones and stab me with your hateful stares Curtain call, the final act, so say your prayers So long to you beloved traitor A Last Supper with nothing to say All of the words have fallen onto my plate I feel a fearful feeling starting to lead me astray Hiding my deep desires tore me apart Fighting to hate things I want in my heart Budding a bloody venom, forcing me into the dark The things I've seen and wanna believe But I deny the truth that's staring at me I know the cross I bear is starting to wear on my knees Feeling a bleeding, burning something in me Beneath a voice too timid, bubbling deep Shutting a throat so singed, I don't have a word that won't sting Cutting out this doubt, I see now Clear and free, let loose what's killing me Lower your eyes, my love and spite look quite alike I worship you, but hate grew up into This bitter, sweet disguise Then your mercy came to take the pain that I had on my mind Even if we have to say our goodbyes Even if we lose sight of our lives You'll always have me in your heart I'll never part from your side If only I could stop you leaving If I could hold you right here with me You could wash away my secret sins Save me from the hate I hide within Peace can dirty like water into wine Baptized and brought to light I'll make them see you're a witch in disguise Innocence has died Wilted by your lies Let's break you from this cage But you never came to set me free I'm whispering, still standing in the rain Nothing will change, I'm praying the same thing every day I've lost my faith and myself all the same It's too late to be saved Torn apart, I'm stuck in hate while hoping I can somehow change If we're tired of this back-and-forth strut If there is nothing left here for us I'll see that we are both set free Tonight, I'll see we find peace So that nobody can conquer your heart So nobody can tear us apart You should trust yours in these hands of mine Lean on me, and you'll be alright Tears I shared with you Joy, I shared with you Fights I shared with you Songs I shared with you Dances shared with you Secrets shared with you Still, I'm whispering the same prayer every day How much longer will this feeling torture me? I can't forget the things you said to me; the way we used to be Just how many times will my mind keep bringing up your lies Look me right in the eyes Even if we have to say our goodbyes Even if we lose sight of our lives You'll always have me in your heart I'll never part from your side If only I could stop you leaving If I could hold you right here with me I'll make sure that all my secret sins Everything my heart has hid All the feelings deep within Beating in my heart's the Truth, Amen
