Verse:
Grey outside, black within
Shades of silence, null and
Void. We're just like raindrops
That decided not to
Fall. We now concede to speak in
Monologue. We're talking to ourselves.
But no one can read lips that don't
Move. So say a
Chorus:
Prayer for alteration
Of our alternation.
Words and silences, switch, now, Simon says,
I speak, you speak, now, repeat after me,
Dear God, let me say that
I'm ashamed to say that
I've been letting go of letting you know.
Open my mouth and take my heart out.
Verse:
Where's the rhyme, the reason?
Pointless noise, and plug your
Ears. There's no incentive.
How can we repent with
Our mouths gagged and bound with duct tape
Cut and placed by our own two willing hands?
Remove this handkerchief I've put here
And I'll say a
Chorus:
Break (spoken):
A crimson sunset falls
On a cold, lonely horizon.
A gentle glow to thaw your soul,
Begging, pleading acceptance.
But the ground utters forth slowly
A sulking, silent steam,
A formless divide between dark and light
And a Godless underneath.
Breakdown:
Open my mouth
And take my heart out,
Take my heart out,
God, take my heart out.
I pray to God to help me
Pray to God.
To spill my soul out
In this prayer, this
