And I Said "please"
Forget the past that you may forgive today
For as long as those memories live, so does the pain
At times it feels so fresh we break
Let judgment pass not upon your soul
As in the great tomorrow there will be the bones of adversaries dancing to life
As all will stand when He blows the horn
Fear the shaking mountain for it isn't the force of the earth that speaks but Gods foot that walks
Praise Jesus for his life the only gift we have from our father
He showed the greatest love, to never sin
And we fall to say we are only human
Will this pain ever go away, will my eyes open to see you once again
And from the highest point I shout to the vacant crown of bones "help"
Dancing skeletons make way to my heart
I yell to never be heard, for my voice is mute
And all the fallen sing my name, as I have to laid down my flesh
And my spirit leaves my bones
So long my prayer keeps my eyes open I shall write
Let me pen not dry for I shall write of his tribulation
Keep the peace upon my head that my eyes may see
Let my tounge fast, for food is not tomorrow
And our water leaves us to nothing, we walk and sleep among the dead
A race we will lose
Free me, as I too yell to top my lung and my voice falls still
