Lyrics
Crestfallen
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I cry a tear of hate but it is lost in helplessness.
The darkness eats away at the very embers of my soul
For the deepest love I have has dissolved before my eyes.
My sorrow is bleak, I beg for deliverance.
Lord, in your mercy, hear my prayer.
All emotion is consumed by an inner silence.
All grief is unassuaged by disconsolate tears.
I want for nothing, I live for nothing.
I am waiting to die, but I am afraid dying.
Lord, in your mercy, hear my prayer.
Crestfallen emotion.
Wallowing in guilt trying
and drowning forevermore.
Falling deeper into fear.
My inner self is now
a sleeper of stone.
