War and Rapture Lyrics

Father, God in Heaven -
Please hear, grant my prayers.
Save me from myself, my sin, this hell on earth.
You are reality, my world is but a dream.
As I walk, death walks towards me.
One more day closer to the coming.

My pulse grows as the scale leaves me.
Alone I am weak, easy to devour, prone to deceit.
I lust, I hate, I lie to myself.

Alive to the world is dead to the grave.

Beautiful creations…
Wasting my days away.
Hear me, change me, break me.
I have traded roaches for mice.
Lies for white lies.
I know it is time. I must move on.

There is so much tragedy but impossible to weep.
No time to cry, tears of beauty,
a luxury I barely receive.

War, is this blood drenching my soul?
Too many a time I have lost control.

I hate this sin but indulge in it.
Long for, but dread a walking sunset.
Here comes Leviathan,
his time to strike again.

I wish to walk in the light.
