I've been tearing at this gauze over my eyes 

and clanging cymbals till I couldn't hear 

your screaming anymore. 



I used to speak in the tongues of angels, 

all I ever say now is goodbye. 



And I'll set myself on fire as a beacon 

through the shadow that my life has been 

but I would only smolder 

because I would not burn for anyone 

when I had the chance. 



I used to speak in the tongues of angels, 

all I ever say now is goodbye. 



I've been trading sight for lights and mirrors 

falling headfirst into failure 

I want to see You face to face
