From These Wounds Lyrics

From These Wounds

and now i recognize your face and my folly

for longer days and nights this strange redemption'

with words you've bled me dry

now dust falls from these wounds



into the airless night i'm cast

hear me call you

i know i can't create a lie you won't see through

through in this blessed tone i am a child in wanting

a feeling not unlike regret permeates me

and with the birth of fear i am set free



from these wounds i claim redemption

from these wounds i am redeemed



in passing i recall with such vivid clarity

the soft whispering reminders of foolish notions

too late i realized my wrongs and my carelessness

now from the stone i hear you call

i can not answer



believe me my regret runs deep yet i know peace

for in 24 years i've always been inspired

the loss i do regret and still i know redemption

for you are better gone now you are set free
