All this leads me nowhere
Can't live in hatred of my own existence
No reason to care is unreasonable
And when reason's dead, I'm left with nothing at all
Though this earth feels desolate
Though I make my bed in the pit of hell
Still your presence, it finds me there
You're nearer to me than I am to myself
How can I argue back at you?
Can breath you grant turn and curse your name?
All my life never felt at home
You're the only rest I've ever known.
Humility descends like snow
And I feel my spite melt on my lips
All my life never felt at home
You're the only rest I've ever known.
Clamp my hand over my mouth
I've spoken once, I won't speak again
The more I question you, the more I fight
The more I find I need you just to breathe
I feel the warmth of conviction pour back like iron into my bones.
And I can't shake the thought that you...
Bore all the weight of my sin, You shared my pain
Every finger I point points right back at me
Humility descends like snow
And I feel my spite melt ON MY LIPS
All my life never felt at home.
You're the only rest I've ever known.
Yet still the question remains in my mind
Will you be there when this emptiness returns?
Will I stand firm?
In the flame of suffering,
In the night of doubt,
When the steel of hate slides through these ribs...
Will the sting of death be numb?
Seeing nothing all around
I turn my eyes to heaven
Searched this earth for a shred of light
I turn my eyes to heaven.
I'll follow you through death itself...
