Verse 1:
I walk the world on insect legs beneath an unforgiving sun
Eat the dirt throughout my days, born on dirt and dirt I come undone
Messiah born in Bethlehem won't find me lying dead
The world's too big for him to see me or hear the things I've said
Chorus: [Palm Muted] [Power Chords]
Hold me to you as I pray, Take the rest of the world away
My blood runs warm because of you, The scales fall out of my eyes
Verse 2:
I laughed in the keep of a man with a rose my mandibles are caked in trash
Thought you wouldn't recognize me, in the black of soot and ash
Don't turn deaf into my voice, but one thing I want you to know:
I have always loved you though my life has never said so
Chorus: [Palm Muted] [Power Chords]
Hold me to you as I pray, Take the rest of the world away
My blood runs warm because of you, The scales fall out of my eyes
Hold me to you as I pray, Take every other thing away
My heart is breaking out for you, The scales are out of my eyes

Outro:
I love you Lord, and I lift my voice
To worship you, Oh, my soul rejoice
Take joy my King in what you hear
May it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ear
