Halicarnassus
Look down on me in my hour of need
Protect me from the ones that come to feed
Speak to me, please; my time, it flees
When light ceases, give me eyes to see
Give me eyes to see
Let me see
The thorn in my side that bleeds me
The ones in my heart that need me
How I should handle defeat
The moments I cannot repeat
Awake from your grave, I need you to save
My life and id, don't let me be a slave
My body, it fails; I'm feckless and frail
I cry and I wail, but to no avail
To no avail
The thorn in my flesh that hates me
The one in my arms that consecrates me
Don't want anything that I don't need
Need to know how to concede
And I'll disappear
Just a whisper, and I'm gone
The thorn in my side that bleeds me
The ones in my heart that need me
How I should handle defeat
The moments I cannot repeat
The thorn in my flesh that hates me
The one in my arms that consecrates me
Don't want anything that I don't need
Need to know how to concede
Protect me from the ones that come to feed
Speak to me, please; my time, it flees
When light ceases, give me eyes to see
Give me eyes to see
Let me see
The thorn in my side that bleeds me
The ones in my heart that need me
How I should handle defeat
The moments I cannot repeat
Awake from your grave, I need you to save
My life and id, don't let me be a slave
My body, it fails; I'm feckless and frail
I cry and I wail, but to no avail
To no avail
The thorn in my flesh that hates me
The one in my arms that consecrates me
Don't want anything that I don't need
Need to know how to concede
And I'll disappear
Just a whisper, and I'm gone
The thorn in my side that bleeds me
The ones in my heart that need me
How I should handle defeat
The moments I cannot repeat
The thorn in my flesh that hates me
The one in my arms that consecrates me
Don't want anything that I don't need
Need to know how to concede
