lyrics

The Commiseration of Souls

Part I: An Hour of Light

The morning brings an hour of light
Bringing down the sword
On all my enemies
The sins of a thousand regenerations
Permanently
Destroyed

And now I see His hands, His feet
His sorrow
His grief
The One Who Lives—
The blood on His brow—
The entire realm of nature
Bows—
Makes an offering
To a soul divine

See His hands, His feet
The One Who Lives
Destroys

Part II: Betrayal

Among the thorns still lie the wicked.
The sinner stalks until defeated;
The prayer to forgive forever repeated;
This prayer like incense will be ever receiv-ed
By the One Who Lives

Among the thorns still lie the wicked
The rose petal betrays its danger with its beauty
Like a love story...

Among the thorns still lie the wicked
The thorns betray the blood they'll spill
The petals caress them close until
They die
