The Chalice Lyrics


The burning orange horizon,

The mountain I carry

Will bring me to the end.

I will end me.

Your grip is iron.

Blood slips from my teeth.

You pour over me until I am broken.

Melted, mended, innocent.

The last time I'll cry until I see God.

Here in, my hands:

Sunlight, blackened eyelids, sunspots.

Can't wait to end me.

Spare me calamity,

See me descending.

Do I exist here to serve or pray?

For goodness?

Limitless, callous looming of the guillotine.

When I meet my maker,

He'll have to kill me twice.

No more forgiveness,

Just a hole in my life.
