The Offering Lyrics


The sun falls, turning everything to silhouettes,

the trees become the rafters,

holding up the sky,

cold starlight gleaming through, and my eyes are open wide

A cathedral rises from the very night itself,

and I fall onto my knees,

I lie my head down at the alter, offering

take what you want from me

take everything

Drown any air of segregation

All are composed of the decomposed

I return renewed

that which has been borrowed from you

Drown any air of segregation

All are of the decomposed

Break me down to elemental states

a fate from which there's no escape

no joy and yet there is no hate

Every facet of me blown-away,

like ashes in the wind

Drown any air of segregation

All are composed of the decomposed

Embrace me now

let me rot into the ground

I'll become soil

and I will enter your mouth

I'll nourish your roots

so you can continue to live

I'll die right here

with nothing left for me to give

I'll die right here

with nothing left for me to give
