The sanctuary of absolution fails me I will endure every gasp as a burden for eternity Searching for the utmost compassion in things that I've never earned Pity me for I'm without command Cowardice without a vision leads me to ignorance without a purpose Martyr me for nothing I could achieve I'll bathe your ashes in the gold of christ to drown the misery King nothing Will you salvage my soul when the time comes? King nothing Could I live up to your heart after you're gone? Woe is me delivering a sermon based off exploited pieces of your flesh Sobbing into darkness Fabricating your consciousness just so I can sleep at night I hope you never see what I've become Shower me in empathy for I'm without command Cowardice without a vision leads me to ignorance without a purpose Praise be with me for the things that I could not achieve For only through my arrogance will I find peace of mind On lifted time King nothing Will you salvage my soul when the time comes? King nothing Could I live up to your heart after you're gone?
