Psalms Of Darkness

One day I woke up
I didn’t know where to start
The world as I knew was gone
My body was no longer my own (my own!)

He touched my skin
I prayed it would go away
But God wasn’t there to listen
It was being done in his name

Psalms of darkness
Linger in my heart
Psalms of darkness
Blindfold my eyes

Love is a strange word
Bizarre, complex, bad luck
The need to commit, the act of touch
But the fear all the same, the smell of the earth

Psalms of darkness
Read between the lines
Don’t let they grind you down
Pitch-black hope, sitting on your soul

Psalms of darkness
Linger in my heart
Psalms of darkness
Blindfold my eyes

He touched my skin
I prayed it would go away
But God wasn’t there to listen
It was being done in his name

Psalms of darkness
Linger in my heart
Psalms of darkness
Blindfold my eyes
Psalms of darkness
Shattered soul
Psalms of darkness
My flesh unfolds
