Tu

Hold my body down
And fill the cup up right
Let it spill over
And drown this nave
My dreams are violent, Father
I watch it burn
This barren star
Where I have come undone
Where is your man to have me strung?

I don't believe in retribution
But maybe he has made me stay here
And kept me living on this Earth
I didn't say goodbye
I didn't say goodbye
I didn't say goodbye
I didn't say goodbye
I can never say goodbye

I suppose the cross you bare
Is like her paintings I have kept here
An empty promise we both share
I swear one winter morning
I felt her kiss

If I am sent to the darkest hell
I'd climb through fire and break this Earth
For some illusion on my chest
To tell her words I never said
"Just let me love you"
Yes, one more time

Father, I have lived with shame
Cursed this child down
This metal taste in my mouth
But I will never forgive how
I never spoke
Never spoke aloud
Of my perfect one

So, take my body from this plane
I'll bow down and bare his name
Just let me see
Just let me see her in her beautiful light

If I could see you now
I would never again
Never hide you from my heart
And leave you in the dark

Oh, if I could see you now
Would you reveal yourself again?
Father, I'll take this sacred road
You can have my soul
Just let her hear these words
"Just let me love you!"
"Just let me love you again!"
One more time
