An ember sits beside me
This holy fever drives me
I fell in love a hundred years ago
Patroness, guide me, you're in control
Should I pray
Have I gone stray
I slowly drag my face from the ground
And stare at the wet carpet
My vision's blurry, still, I gaze upon
How the golden candles are all set
I could have sworn I heard a voice oh so sweet, oh so sweet
Then all at once, all candles died, darkness flowed with its sheets
If I loved you, you'd love me back
But I can't, you're the cross to my back
I am not a saint to worship
You're resting on clouds of my mute lips
Find some way
If I'm hurt, I'll surely pray
Should I pray
Have I gone stray
All this satin
Draped 'cross your arms
Where will I head
Where can I find your north
Started to cry
This is not fair
Weep with the gold
The truth knocks out my air
I wait for her voice again
I watch the sun rise and then
I turn to see what is left
Then turn again, nothing is left
It's a cliff and a drained sea
This void's washing out all things
Even the sun was sucked in
All my life deconstructed
If I'm staring at my own end
I loved you, I love you, you're my friend
If you'll save me, then you'll save me
I'll listen, no worship, but I'm scared
I'm so glad you existed
Take my heart, I'm insistent
I accept that you're distant
This is love, yes, I missed it
I don't know what you sound like
In the dark, would you stay bright
There's someone behind that face
I'll never know, never embrace
Find some way
If I'm blind, I'll just need faith
I fell in love a hundred years ago
Patroness, guide me, you're in control
If I'm blind
Then I'll lose you
All this satin
Draped 'cross your arms
Where will I head
Where can I find your north
Started to cry
This is not fair
Weep with the gold
The truth knocks out all air
