Tears In Sanctuary

The silent sanctuary of my mind
Leaves me with tears bleeding down my face
And in my heart I’d hoped to find
The passion and the grace
To hold you in my arms and sigh
The breath of our contentment
But all I heard were fears I’d learnt
And silent walls of cold resentment

As I sit here where tears have dried
Memories flood my heart and mind
And amongst the pain I realise
The ignorance of being blind
Oh Lord have mercy, hear me cry
You fuck with hearts and true people die
And I have crumbled and I have lied
And my sin was love of shame

Forgive me for the pain I seek
Forgive me for your burning cheek
I cry for I was not a friend
I sold our Love for the darkness of my sanctuary

And I wonder if it’s all past life
A christian sin, a stupid lie
Following patterns in my mind
And lives magic passes me by
So what am I doing running here
Nowhere to hide my battered fears
Nowhere to rest my weary soul
No one to hold onto or to hold

Forgive me for the pain I seek
Forgive me for your burning cheek
I cry for I was not a friend
I sold our Love
For the darkness of my sanctuary
