From the well of the blessed, I am drowning in the darkness
Blind, sweet blind love – I gave to you.
Soul casted by the stone of self, I knew my time would come.
Purity of my birth shadowed now by the light.
Who will recognize this face now statuesque by what I’ve become?
Father, will you still notice me though weathered and gruesome?
For what I cannot see, will you be the guiding light?
Please lead me back home in your loving arms.
