Pillar of Truth

Your hands are folded Your eyes are closing Your words are broken Your eyes are dry Chorus I am weak looking at you A pillar of truth Turning to dust I am weak looking at you A pillar of truth Turning to dust Verse 2 You are your mother's child You're a mother of a mother of a mother now Raised in the age of the milkman I can't claim to understand Chorus I am weak looking at you A pillar of truth Turning to dust I am weak looking at you A pillar of truth Turning to dust Verse 3 Lord, prepare me For the shadows For the sparrows At my window Lord, have mercy On my descendants For they know not What they do For they know not Who you are And they know not What to do Verse 4 I, the anchor I'm slowly sinking Into darkness Yet unknown But the fading Light around me Is full of faces Who carry my name Chorus I am weak looking at you A pillar of truth Turning to dust I am weak looking at you A pillar of truth Turning to dust Verse 5 Lord, be near me My final hour I once had sight But now I'm blind Oh, I tried to be A second coming And if I want Nobody knew If my throat can't sing Then my soul Screams out to you Chorus I am weak looking at you A pillar of truth Turning to dust I am weak looking at you A pillar of truth Turning to dust
