My Epic
Lament
Today he died.He stared in the void then took his own lifeAnd you watched me cryAlone in the parking lot as I felt the now and forever collideOh oh ah oh!And I fight in vain, try to deny, to push back the years, and the weight, and the grayBut it's in my face, the edge of the infinite, and we're all just inches and seconds awayMy eyes are wide I feel the weightSit down, breathe out, and try not to faintor be crushed by the scale of everythingWhat is man in the scope of existencejust a blink on a dot in the darkBut the patterns that weave through the distancebare a voice that proclaims who we areYour love oh God, I feel the weightFor who am I that you know thy nameAnd leave me the seas to display with the starsThat of all you have made you set man apartFor we are Your treasureSongtexteYour heartbeat (Your heartbeat) surrounds me (surrounds me)There aren't words to describe what You've shown meEach man is in your imageWalking around shining just like the sunThe depths are not void they resound with the truthThat there's no peace to rest in, till we find our place in YouI see their souls, and feel the weightOh God forgive each word I wasteGrant that my throat with the sun would be raisedTo banish the dark because I cannot takeAnother death in my silence
