|
i am the only one to blame for this |
|
Somehow it all adds up the same |
|
Soaring on the wings of selfish pride |
|
I flew too high and like icarus i collide |
|
With a world i try so hard to leave behind |
|
To rid myself of all but love |
|
To give and die |
|
To turn away and not become |
|
Another nail to pierce the skin of one who loves |
|
More deeply than the oceans, |
|
More abundant than the tear |
|
Of a world embracing every heartache |
|
Can i be the one to sacrifice |
|
Or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow |
|
To love you - take my world apart |
|
To need you - i am on my knees |
|
To love you - take my world apart |
|
To need you - broken on my knees |
|
All said and done i stand alone |
|
Amongst remains of a life i should not own |
|
It takes all i am to believe |
|
In the mercy that covers me |
|
Did you really have to die for me? |
|
All i am for all you are |
|
Because what i need and what i believe are worlds apart |
|
Additional lyrics: |
|
I look beyond the empty cross |
|
Forgetting what my life has cost |
|
And wipe away the crimson stains |
|
And dull the nails that still remain |
|
More and more i need you now, |
|
I owe you more each passing hour |
|
The battle between grace and pride |
|
I gave up not so long ago |
|
So steal my heart and take the pain, |
|
Wash the feet and cleanse my pride |
|
Take the selfish, take the weak, |
|
And all the things i cannot hide |
|
Take the beauty, take my tears |
|
This sin-soaked heart and make it yours |
|
Take my world apart |
|
Take it now, take it now |
|
And serve the ones that i despise |
|
Speak the words i can't deny |
|
Watch the world i used to love |
|
Turn to dust and fall away |
|
I look beyond the empty cross |
|
Forgetting what my life has cost |
|
So wipe away the crimson stains |
|
And dull the nails that still remain |
|
So steal my heart and take the pain |
|
Take the selfish, take the weak |
|
And all the things i cannot hide |
|
Take the beauty, take my tears |
|
Take my world apart, take my world apart |
|
I pray, and i pray, and i pray |
|
Take my world apart |
|
Worlds apart. |
