Last Rites Lyrics

I found it suffering and waiting

Spinning around the sun alone

While no one noticed the decaying

Of mother earth down to her bones

I came to take your misery away

I came to bring the end

The end of all the days

And while I tried to stop the bleeding

(I bleed for you)

The stitches tore themselves apart

I could not resurrect the beating

(I beat for you)

Of such a desecrated heart

I came to take your misery away

I came to bring the end

The end of all the days

These are your last rites

Word for word and line for line

These are your last rites

Bringing the end of all the time

These are your last rites

From the shadows to the light

I came here to resite

Your last rites

Roaming through empty space

On a corpse we call a home

Roaming through nothingness

On a world dead and gone

In my bones

I knew it all along

In my bones

I knew this day would come

I came to bring the end

These are your last rites

Word for word and line for line

These are your last rites

Bringing the end of all the time

These are your last rites

From the shadows to the light

I came here to recite

Your last rites

These are your last rites
