I walk the world on insect legs beneath an unforgiving sun

Eat the dirt throughout my days On the dirt and dirt I come undone

Messiah born in Bethlehem won't find me lying there

The world's too big for him to see me or hear the things I've said

Hold me to you as I pray, Take the rest of the world away

My blood runs warm because of you, The scales fall out of my eyes

I laughed in the keep of a man with a rose my mandibles are caked in trash

Thought you wouldn't recognize me, in the black of soot and ash

Don't turn deaf into my voice, but one thing I want you to know:

I have always loved you though my life has never said so

Hold me to you as I pray, Take the rest of the world away

My blood runs warm because of you, The scales fall out of my eyes

Hold me to you as I pray, Take every other thing away

My heart is breaking out for you, The scales are out of my eyes


I love you Lord, and I lift my voice

To worship you, Oh, my soul rejoice

Take joy my King in what you hear

May it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ear
