Redemption (Stand)

from Rust: A Fiction by The Mercy Cage

/

lyrics

Raise your hands to the heavens
We are stained by time
Take these shattered wings & fly
Traverse the divide
There exists right now my love
A certain distance between you & i
We are, set upon by the great & terrible lie
A tear upon the surface
Reflecting bent & wrong
Over fleeting shards of dreams
Don’t speak now
I understand…

Stand beneath me
Let me drink of you
This cup full of lies
With arms wide open
Arms cover everything
Like grey machines
We sleepwalk through these
Gentle acts of cruelty
Arms wide open
I covet everything
Every waking moment
Every wasted frame in time
Everyday
You let me off my knees & make me stand
smiling through this charade
Stand like nothing ever was wrong
Be my lover, be my wife
At least look me in the eye for once
& make me stand…
