Cataracts
Like a child I watched you
I pledged my life
With a heart so big
And understanding so real
You were a man like me
I place myself
Not by the sound of church bells
But a yard from... Hell
Set up a rescue shop
I saw these bodies, walk in the field where I once walked
Their hands are bound, their eyes are covered
I see them move, they are staggering across time
Living in vain for life to find them
All I wanted is truth.
All I wanted was something that I, could hold onto.
And I will hold you close.
Cause I'd been searching for so long, 'till I found you.
I was sick, my guilt it pinned me to the floor
You forced my ugliness out like vomit.
I was scarred, I felt like I stomached a bomb
But peace found me like scars cover punctures
My eyes, give me no light
While my senses, fail me
My bones, remember how they'd shake
And I'm never going back
All I wanted is truth.
All I wanted was something that I, could hold onto.
And I will hold you close.
Cause I'd been searching for so long, 'till I found you.
My eyes, give me no light
While my senses, fail me
My bones, remember how they'd shake
And I'm never going back
My eyes, give me no light
While my senses, fail me
My bones, remember how they used to shake
And I'm never going back
I pledged my life
With a heart so big
And understanding so real
You were a man like me
I place myself
Not by the sound of church bells
But a yard from... Hell
Set up a rescue shop
I saw these bodies, walk in the field where I once walked
Their hands are bound, their eyes are covered
I see them move, they are staggering across time
Living in vain for life to find them
All I wanted is truth.
All I wanted was something that I, could hold onto.
And I will hold you close.
Cause I'd been searching for so long, 'till I found you.
I was sick, my guilt it pinned me to the floor
You forced my ugliness out like vomit.
I was scarred, I felt like I stomached a bomb
But peace found me like scars cover punctures
My eyes, give me no light
While my senses, fail me
My bones, remember how they'd shake
And I'm never going back
All I wanted is truth.
All I wanted was something that I, could hold onto.
And I will hold you close.
Cause I'd been searching for so long, 'till I found you.
My eyes, give me no light
While my senses, fail me
My bones, remember how they'd shake
And I'm never going back
My eyes, give me no light
While my senses, fail me
My bones, remember how they used to shake
And I'm never going back
