The question is this 

By will alone 

Does my heart carry the strength 

To see you burn? 

When I do not wish to part 

To see them farewell 

Does my heart carry the strength 

to leave you behind? 



The eternal search for purity 

A fragile hope for the just and fair 

Order feeds from the corpses 

All beauty must die 



Where is the essence 

in beast or scripture? 

Where lies the laws 

in stars or temples? 

I cannot see myself 

Not your orbit 

I cannot see the others 

Not your eyes 



It lasts forever when you let it go 

Purity and Pain 



Where is the essence 

in beast or scripture? 

Where lies the laws 

in stars or temples? 

I cannot see myself 

Not your orbit 

I cannot see the others 

Not your eyes 



If I told you I'd get you through 

I'd have to let you fall down 



Not because of malice 

You needed to 

And I'll remember 

What we had 



It lasts forever when you let it go 

Purity and Pain
