"Orison" lyrics - SOEN

[Intro:]
Wash off your sins
Bound by the burden of the grief that's found within
Drowned in a sea of sorrow bound to learn to swim
Wash off your sins

Since you were born
A flake of a broken soul who never would endure
Shaped by the ills of fate that always felt unsure
Since you were born

[Refrain:]
In your eyes, I
Could see a loathing for the truth
You are burning within

[Chorus:]
Dead you are
A yearning for eternal life
A longing for a sacrifice
Praying for the end of time
As the curtain falls

Under the cross
The revelations of a narcissistic mind
Harbored resentment for the joys of humankind
Under the cross

[Instrumental]

[Bridge:]
Wake up
And pull out the thorns from your heart
Wake up
Or sleep with the damned

[Chorus:]
Dead you are
A yearning for eternal life
A longing for a sacrifice
Praying for the end of time
As the curtain falls

[Outro:]
Words
Hard to forgive
How could we fall
From grace
