Wound

There you are
As you always were
In bathing light
And naked blur
You're a part of me
Eternal one
By grand design
And setting sun
If you wait
I will wait
Taste I will taste
If you love I will love
Run I will run
To my last breath
Last night I turned around and thought I saw myself turning
Inside the strangest dream of life unloved and cities burning
Awake in my arms
You cry unharmed
Our age of the hours
While they still devour all
So take it all
I doubt if we
Will know it's gone
Cause we've been here
Since time began
Begged God awake and make these plans
Wound opens
Reveal this broken man
And soon there's notions of blood in his hands
If you wait I will wait
Taste I will taste
If you love I will love
Run I will run
To my last breath
Last night I turned around and saw myself turning
Last night I turned around and thought I watched the world endind
Inside the crushing down I felt a pang the tide was turning
Destroyed in the wake
The jealous ingrates
Who'll tear this world down
To spite God above
With his own love
With his own love
If you wait I will wait
Taste I will taste
If you love I will love
Run I will run
To my last breath
