lyrics

When I find my way back
To the center of myself
The demon that sits on my chest
Will find its way back to its hell

And I will breathe
And I will sleep
Unburdened from the awful things
About myself it told to me
Try as I may to not believe

The way you sunk your claws in me
And glorified the suffering
By some sadistic tendency
In ritual of poisoning

The bitter fruit that now I reap
The broken cup I couldn’t drink
The sacrament I couldn’t keep
The elegy I couldn’t read

The sun I looked at for relief
Scorched my skin in mockery
Of innocence I couldn’t keep
That ordinary misery

So blessed be, o blessed be
The thistle and the evergreen
The pasture and the willow tree
Blessed be, o blessed be

That song of hope still echoing
My phantom pain still lingering
This place, this place I long to be
The center of own being
