Grace Unhearing

Falling, drowning, deeper and forever
Choking, sinking deeper into this ocean
Screaming, crying for someone to save me
Reaching, hoping, calling to no-one
My only sin was to kill a man
Deep was my pain, but I'd do the same again
Beat it out, out of me, cut me up and watch me bleed
Strike me down, cast me out
Throw me into the ocean's mouth
My only prayer was to a God
who I don't believe
But all the same I'm on my knees
Beat it out, out of me, cut me up and watch me bleed
Strike me down, cast me out
Throw me into the Devil's mouth
Bleeding, weeping, crawling to no-one
Pleading almighty, why can't you hear me

My only prayer was to a dying God
who I don't believe
But all the same I'm on my knees
Beat it out, out of me, cut me up and watch me bleed
Strike me down, cast me out
Throw me into my own mouth
Take me away
to a better place
Far from anyone
By myself and leave a gun
Beat it out, out of me, cut me up and watch me bleed
Strike me down, cast me out
Throw me into my Saviour's mouth
