Forgive the Silence

Can You give me water I’ve been here far too long Thirsting in this desert This land has dried my soul Though I had streams and rivers For miles and miles I left them for My barren desires Even amidst my thirsting I drank the dust Of purposeless dreams And futile stories I’m the thief of my life I gave life to distance The warmth has turned to cold Brought silence to existent And it's deafening my soul Our once sweet communion Made quiet by my ways The feast that fed my spirit I have left to decay Though I heard you calling me Through my silence I reveled in This mute existence Where I found crippled joy And broken sorrow A numb today And dim tomorrows Though I had streams and rivers For miles and miles I left them for My barren desires Even amidst my thirsting I drank the dust Of purposeless dreams And futile stories I’m the thief of my life I’m the thief of my life I’m the thief of my life Forgive the silence of my soul Forgive the silence of my soul I see the light I hear You cry I come I come
