Here in this darkess that I lay
Depression heavy in it's way
And how my body hates to leave
And sing it's final ulegy
My sons I love you ever more
And though the road back ends once more
I see the damage that I've done
And search for redemption

But I am just a broken man
Who's soul cries out to understand
How the madness shatters me
Upon the stage on bended knee
I scream aloud at skies above
That answer mute, bereft and loved
I [bad word] not to fall from grace
I sing the hyms of my disgrace

We build cathedrals to our pain
Establish monuments to obtain
Freedom from all of the scars and the sins
Lest we drown in the darkness within

Mysteries forgotten chords
I [bad word] in vain to please the lord
But he has never answered me
And faith has winged eternaly
An empty man who passed along
The woes of all religions wrong
And now the shadow vail falls
Hear the clown that calls
So pray to music
Build a shrine
Worship in these desperate times
Fill your heart with every note
Cherish it and cast a vote
Cause God is in his laughing tone
Salvation is found alone
Haunted by it's melody
Music, it will set you free
Let it set you free

We build cathedrals to our pain
Establish monuments to obtain
Freedom from all of the scars and the sins
Lest we drown in the darkness within

We build cathedrals to our pain
Establish monuments to obtain
Freedom from all of the scars and the sins
Lest we drown in the darkness within

We build cathedrals to our pain
Establish monuments to obtain
Freedom from all of the scars and the sins
Lest we drown in the darkness within
