Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Your hands are folded
Your eyes are closin'
Your words are broken
Your eyes are dry
[Verse 2]
I am weak, lookin' at you
A pillar of truth, turnin' to dust
I am weak, lookin' at you
A pillar of truth, turnin' to dust
[Verse 3]
You are your mother's child
You're a mother of a mother of a mother now
Raised in the age of the milkman
I can't claim to understand
[Verse 4]
I am weak, lookin' at you
A pillar of truth, turnin' to dust
I am weak, lookin' at you
A pillar of truth, turnin' to dust
[Verse 5]
Lord, prepare me for the shadows
For the sparrows at my window
Lord, have mercy on my descendants
For they know not what they do
For they know not who You are
And they know not what to do
[Verse 6]
I, the anchor, am slowly sinkin'
Into darkness, yet unknown
But the fading light around me
Is full of faces who carry my name
[Verse 7]
I am weak, lookin' at you
A pillar of truth, turnin' to dust
I am weak, lookin' at you
A pillar of truth, turnin' to dust
[Verse 8]
Lord, be near to me, my final hour
I once had sight, but now I'm blind
Oh, I tried to be a second coming
And if I want, nobody knew
If my throat can't sing, then my soul screams out to you
[Verse 9]
I am weak lookin' at you
A pillar of truth turnin' to dust
I am weak lookin' at you
A pillar of truth turnin' to dust
