I’ve been tearing at this gauze over my eyes
And clanging cymbals till I couldn’t hear
Your screaming anymore.
I used to speak in the tongues of angels,
All I ever say now is goodbye.
And I’ll set myself on fire as a beacon
Through the shadow that my life has been
But I would only smolder
Because I would not burn for anyone
When I had the chance.
I used to speak in the tongues of angels,
All I ever say now is goodbye.
I’ve been trading sight for lights and mirrors
Falling headfirst into failure
I want to see You face to face.
