King Nothing

The sanctuary of absolution fails me
I will endure every gasp as a burden for eternity
Searching for the utmost compassion in things that I've never earned

Pity me for I'm without command
Cowardice without a vision leads me to ignorance without a purpose
Martyr me for nothing I could achieve
I'll bathe your ashes in the gold of christ to drown the misery

King nothing
Will you salvage my soul when the time comes?
King nothing
Could I live up to your heart after you're gone?

Woe is me delivering a sermon based off exploited pieces of your flesh
Sobbing into darkness
Fabricating your consciousness just so I can sleep at night

I hope you never see what I've become

Shower me in empathy for I'm without command
Cowardice without a vision leads me to ignorance without a purpose
Praise be with me for the things that I could not achieve
For only through my arrogance will I find peace of mind
On lifted time

King nothing
Will you salvage my soul when the time comes?
King nothing
Could I live up to your heart after you're gone?
