Twelve Tribes - Pagan Self Portrait lyrics

When I'm dead and I've served this life sentence I will know true love A sentiment to medicate the silence and security The my name will have been forgotten like all the rest I had to give my heart away to bring the damage back again Has it come to this end; redemption for my crimes I know life only in my dreams So what's left of them is what's left of me I have become the lie in your arms The truth hidden behind these scars We hurt the ones we love And send them to meet their god Return to the moment that you lost In my heart I've seen the end that this world has come to I held you down under the current And my intentions were obvious This is my pulse in the shape of a gun And I know it's true love Because it hurts you so much If I told you how this would end Would you listen if I said it's too late And you can't stop this from happening When I'm dead and I've served this life sentence Love will burn in my eyes Repent, repair, return When I've paid for what I've done The tides will send you up with my love Repent, repair, return Return to the moment that you lost In my heart I've seen the end that this world has to come We hurt the ones we love And send them to meet their God
