Cursed Breath // Innocent Blood

by Úzkost // GRACE AND THIEVES

/
1.
I dread the break of day the light that burns through the shadows that enshroud my shame better is the darkness that i may find peace with my sin. i pray the moon hold its place in the sky to hold the sun and its light to shine elsewhere i wish to hide in a hole where no light burns would there was a darkness that would not retreat and uncover my deeds. i long to dwell forever in darkness to never bring my shame to light turn your face from mine that i may not suffer its light. your searing light that pierces my heart i curse the dark for abandoning me leaving me naked to face you alone. damn your light. leave me to my sin.

i don't remember the fall. all is pain. weary so weary of such hurt. take me away from here. press your elixir between my torn lips and broken teeth. slip your needle through my skin. take me away from here. we were promised rest. my mouth tasted of milk and honey. dont shake me. dont wake me. we were almost home. we were almost home. my eyes opened to tortuous pain blood and gravel are all i taste. we were almost home. we were almost home.

We are a testament to the most high We are two lampstands - two olive trees Do what you will We are a testament to the most high We stand to testify the glory of I Am Do what you will We will pierce your hearts with the words of our lips We will shut the sky and turn the waters into blood Fire will consume your heathen flesh for your lawlessness and rebellion Your weapons cannot touch us until our God allows it We will prophesy and witness until our testimony is fulfilled And on that day, you will celebrate at the sight of our corpses But the glory will be unto God He will raise us up from the grave before the world to see The glory belongs to him You will fall For no one can stand before his might

When will this end? The one who sits on the throne has stored his wrath for all time, to release on us now He has changed the very face of the earth with earthquakes, hail, blood and fire He hurled the stars to the earth and unleashed demons and angels alike He released the beasts of Apollyon from their place in the abyss As we hide in our own filth we ask "Where is the beast now?" We cower in darkness, gnawing at our tongues tearing our flesh in fear Rescue us, O Death from the face of he who sits on the throne Steal us away from his judgment We will curse him to our last breath He will not have our souls As one defiant voice, we scream "Unseat the tyrant from his throne" Declare war on the kingdom of heaven
