Here in this darkness that I layDepression heavy in its way And how my body aches to leave To sing this final eulogy My sons I love you evermore And though the road beckons once more I see the damage that ive done In search for redemption But I am just a broken man Whose soul cries out to understand How the madness shatters me Upon the stage on bended knee I scream aloud at skies above That answer mute, bereft in love I struggle not to fall from grace Or sing the hymns of my disgrace We build cathedrals to our pain Establish monuments to attain Freedom from all of the scars and the sins Lest we drown in the darkness within Mysterys forgotten chords I strum in vain to please the lord But he has never answered me My faith has waned eternally An empty man who'll pass along The woes of all religions wronged And now the shadowed veil it falls Heed the clarion call So pray to music build a shrine Worship in these desperate times Fill your heart with every note Cherish it and cast afloat Cause God is in these clef and tones Salvation is found alone Haunted by its melody Music it will set you free Let it set you free We build cathedrals to our pain Establish monuments to attain Freedom from all of the scars and the sins Lest we drown in the darkness within Music my savior, save me[4x] We build cathedrals to our pain Establish monuments to attain Freedom from all of the scars and the sins Lest we drown in the darkness within[2x]
