Restoration
Take away my vision Shine your darkest light into my eyes I'm blind to your obsession (Your obsession) You hide your weakness behind cold confession Forgive me father for I have sinned Just take a look at the mess your faith has put you in I can feel no guilt when the eye of the storm Is blind to what is wrong inside my mind You're cold and I'm corroding So blind to my weakness for someone all-knowing How can I believe when I've not seen? Oh, just take a look at the mess my faith has put me in Still I feel no guilt when the eye of the storm Is blind to what is wrong inside my mind I once believed indefinitely So I could forgive myself Take away my wisdom Place your darkest thoughts into me Take away my vision Shine your darkest light into my eyes The day that I awakened I traded a lifetime of weakness for a moment of clarity Blindsighted I've been now I can see So take a look just what your faith has done to me Now I feel the guilt when the eye of the storm Is wise to what I've done inside my mind I will believe indefinitely But I can't forgive myself Take away my vision Take away my wisdom Take away my vision Take away my wisdom

Greed ignites your sin Black seed burns in a bed of lies Destroy and annihilate our world Tearing grace from purity to survive Helpless life doused in a flash Plunge in the knife, burning to ashes They plead, they don’t know why they’re on show Hell holds a place for all of us Watching my friends bleed I break down, I concede In life, I knew paradise and freedom With those now unknown to me I will fly Helpless life doused in a flash Plunge in the knife, burning to ashes They plead, they don’t know why they’re on show Mercy betrayed, floods cannot wash away All of the pain rushes in Beauty deceased, instinct takes over Bygone are the days, darkness reigns Hell holds a place for all of us Life, endless paradise Beauty painted by sin Hell on Earth breeding ignorance The door opens for us Greed ignites Pain inflames the weak But we remain bygone Marching on They watch as their kind suffer And die before them Is this not some kind of genocide? Breaking, crushing, defiling We live as lords of the Earth We bear powers of mercy Yet we choose Greed ignites Pain inflames the weak But we remain bygone Marching on They watch as their kind suffer And die before them Is this not some kind of genocide? Breaking, crushing, defiling We live as lords of the Earth We bear powers of mercy Yet we choose Life, endless paradise Beauty broken by sin Hell on Earth breeding ignorance The door opens for us Life, endless paradise Beauty destroyed by sin Hell on Earth breeding ignorance Hell holds a place for us Open the door Open the door
