Veni Domine - Someone's Knocking lyrics

It's been one day or two I can't really remember Watching the world alone Behind my iron curtain Waiting for the silence Protected, safe from violence Through streets made of stone Souls cry, dies beyond Knowledge of the quest Where grief comes to rest Poor life spins the thread Things remain unsaid Despising my sorrow, this life I have chosen In fear of what could be Sometimes I'm aware Of someone standing close to me A presence, one caress Who knows my loneliness Someone is knocking on my door Someone is knocking on my door It's been one day or two I can't really remember In hope the ma**es rise But who's the hand that guide them Longing for reliance This frightened soul of mine Turns wistful in the sight of grace The presence, the caress Will make my heart confess Someone is knocking on my door Someone, a serpent from before Yet someone, the lament for the poor Just one, will rise and one will fall Someone is knocking on my door
