Prelude / Confession

Bless this weary heart
'Cause these bones will rot in the earth
I’m wandering, I feel so gone
But these tired eyes
They never left the stars
Who will fight for
Me when my strength gives way again?
To the filth and everything I find inside myself
It’s getting harder to breach
The despair closing inside
But I hate myself enough
To let this spread and thrive
When I go accused will you whisper a sound?
No mercy for this bastard son of a coward
Will you still know my name if I fail?
Could you bring me to life and clear my name?
I won’t fall into the flames
Who will fight for
Me when my strength gives way again?
It’s getting harder to breach
The despair closing inside
But I hate myself enough
To let this spread and thrive
These devils want me to burn
When the light leaves my eyes
These devils want me to burn
But something begins to ignite
It’s getting harder to breach
The despair closing inside
But I hate myself enough
Yet I will stand and fight
