Brightest white, blinding Angelic and rustic The greatest beauty i've ever breathed I for one know what this is The great redeemer Our bastard child Let it rise Standing aside the crippled dreamer We begin to understand the design And prepare to climb back into the womb To be reborn as bone and ash Absolution is all that remains Swallow the truth and chase it with blame In bliss, watch our smiles melt away Wash us away, drowned in relief Still and open for the first and last time Repaid and returned Let our blood mix with the soil The earth soaked in us all Our sorrow and our pardons Now, my good friend, we are even This is our end
