I was born nto potential and limitless gracenwith the flashing of lightnit was gone when the smoke clearedncast in ash and powdernnI was raised to obey and respect butnat the edge of the lakenwas death and disruptionnwhen the water splashed across my back it burnednfor the dead there's no comfort in fatenand the light exists mainly to blindnand the purpose of living is lifennI wasn't chosennI didn't choose the pathnmy heart's not built to hold his lovennI was schoolednin a place of traditionnbut something was missingnin faces of classmatesneyes declared too blue, too deepnnin the church where they lead us in worshipnfighting to pull it apartnwith my nailsnas they chewed solid oak beneath mennfor the bloods took the truth from the liesnand the lie they took plainly to godnwhen the life after death is a prizennI wanna reach outnI wanna shake your handnyour war is noble and divinennoooooooooooooohhhh
