lyrics

when we met i was bearing the load
you were busy carrying your own
then we wed
innocent

in our youth futures led
to our lungs filled with sweet breath
and our experiences led
to the death of our innocence

the light?
the light will only show who we are
what we know
we are tired and old

imprinted
in our bones
the sins that bore the son home
and now we hope on bloody knee
to approach his holy throne

the light?
the light will only show who we are
what we know
we are tired and old
we cry “mercy” upon our broken weary souls
for we are tired and old
