"Everlasting Arms"

I took your council and came to ruin

Lead me to myself, leave me to myself

I took your council and came to ruin

Leave me to myself, lead me to myself

Oh I was made to live without you

But I'm never gonna understand, never understand

Oh I was born to live without you

But I'm never gonna understand, never understand

Hold me in your everlasting arms

Looked up for the fields trapped beneath the chandelier

It's going down

I thought it over, and drew the curtain

Leave me to myself, lead me to myself

I hummed the Dies Irae you played the Hallelujah

Lead me to myself, don't leave me in myself

If you'd been made to serve a master

You be fighting by the open night, fighting by the hand

Could I have been made to serve a master

When I'm never gonna understand, never understand

Hold me in your everlasting arms

Looked up full of fear trapped beneath the chandelier

It's going down

Hold me in your everlasting arms

Looked up full of fear trapped beneath the chandelier

It's going down

Hold me in your everlasting arms
