Come Sleep His Beast Is Done
the world in black
a sigh adapts
consume what's borrowed
a growing debt
the silent shouts
his dwell in doubt
unanswered prayers
greet growing fears
the wide awake
bare witness to
his own decay
a growing pain
his beast is done
caved in upon
the mountain ruin
we've all defied
set fear aside
let’s watch him die
where to with questions?
where to with doubt?
all lies aside
let’s choose a path
we’ll greet no truth that
leaves our crippled minds blunt
bleeding through the fields
under the storm
avoiding the sun
turning no stone
the crows stab his hollow
soul with their eyes
there’s a fear that wont
rest least he dies
shame conquered this man
shame is the stone
the stone that sunk
his body through mind
shining underneath
crippled not drained
under the shame
he’s still a man
