Then Power Sword Inserted Within
When we thought you gone we founded a den
When we thought alone our fault did toughen
When did you know, we were to fail you then?
When we thought alone our fear did strengthen
When we thought you gone we soon fought as men
Our self-search was a climb to a tower
Our search of self-made us creep and cower
Our time in self-convinced alone with power
Our search of self, made us beasts of sour
Our self-search was what brought the fire shower
Lord as we’ve lived let heaven be restored
Lord we’ve wronged and fallen from where we soared
Lord I beg mercy to spare me the sword
Lord we’ve wronged, let us one error afford
Lord as we’ve lived banish be reward
Deserted with words ashamed and blooded
Deserted, feeling broken and cheated
Deserted for man, envy inserted
Deserted feeling vengeful and thwarted
Deserted with words lost and unheeded
In dark I am broken cast from my kin
In silence the cold evil doth begin
In failing I am suffering within
In silence the noise of a falling pin
In dark I am plunged to weave all new sin
