Coated in ash A face Eyes closed Taken too soon By those too scared To see the light It poured from within In waves A light that shines To this day A candle flame That’ll never burn down You kick and scream Tear your soul Devoted to doctrines Less than a thousand years old You kill and hurt Because you can’t control You can take my life But I am Deathless You will never erase The love and grace The pain and joy The life lived A life that mattered A life I carry On my shoulders Every day You will never erase The sorrow and grief The hope, the truth You will never take My heart, my soul You can take my life But I am Deathless Bury us deep In a tomb For the years to keep The heart still beats Beneath the ground It pulses still beneath your feet It becomes the earth To blossom anew You can take my life But I am deathless I am deathless
