|
I had to watch as your words |
|
Filled my sons with fear and shame |
|
Chased by visions of Jesus |
|
And in my dreams consumed by flames |
|
But I still believe in angels |
|
Even as they watch me whither away |
|
Please just give me one last breath |
|
Before I pass from this place |
|
One last breath for the wicked |
|
One last breath for the sin |
|
One last breath for the lost, the nameless |
|
And those that I've forgotten |
|
And one last breath to ease the darkness |
|
In those I love when I'm gone |
|
One last breath to say goodbye |
|
Please don't mind me as I linger on |
|
Don't mind me as I linger on. |
|
And I still believe in angels |
|
And footsteps in the snow |
|
And I still believe in the goodness of Man |
|
Despite the evil in my world |
|
And I still believe in love |
|
Though I'm happy to be free of the pain |
|
But please just give me one last breath |
|
Before I pass from this place |
|
One last breath for the wicked |
|
One last breath for the sin |
|
One last breath for the lost, the nameless |
|
And those that I've forgotten |
|
One last breath for the beauty |
|
For the sunset |
|
And the sorrow |
|
One last breath for our children |
|
We leave burdened with our tomorrows |
