lyrics

How could we crawl down this road?
Always in circles, counting bodies as the hours go
Coming to you, into the torrent, against the current
My body is clawing for the shore
All these words I speak bury me again in time
All these words you speak bury me in anger
As these walls break free from me
I cannot scream
Though I have tried a thousand times
How can they profit?
You crawling from true shelter
Oh hear me, we are the body of love
We are creation
We are the body of love, we all fall
And He could fill these rivers
With the blood we’ve spilled
Red torrents rising beneath me
All I know burned to the ground
