Echo

Reflect on all the time spent, this is where the lies end
I was born and I have learned to hate
I have learned to separate the soul from flesh
I have learned that it is not my breath
But that of a God I do not know of beliefs I am told to hold
I will let this go
"The only way through this terror of life is this divine light"
Have a look and read with me
God said, Allah, said
Abraham, Judas
They demand they demand such small things
So you can be pardoned for your sins
Oh, what do I have to be sorry for?
I have learned to fail
One small sip from the grail of your sins father
Teach me things I dare not dream (I dare not dream)
Teach me things to make sense of it all
Why do I breathe so shallow now?
Why can I not remember the faces of those I love?
I am slowly fading away
Oh pity to us
Our great Gods are finer in robes of cotton
Of braille in bones
This blood and tears I can feel in each seam
I dare not ask anymore, I dare not dream
Bury me slowly
So I do not know how I suffocate
Bury me slowly
So I may reproduce this hate
Let me teach it to my sons and daughters
Let them know what I am by making them the only man I ever knew
How can I get through to you?
Ugh
Volatile and fragile, we are children bearing children;
Failures of our fathers
And their fathers
And
The fathers before and fathers before them
