Peregrination

I am haunted
By the life I bleed
Here upon this screen
It never really makes sense
But it is all I've ever known
Now I'm standing like a rock
Waiting for times erosion

Alright
Write it off
Let it out now
Pilgrim

Well I can tell you why
I never died alone
All the tears I cried
Never came along
Look into these eyes
Darkness of a gun

Alright
Write it down
Let it out now
Pilgrim

The cold inside my mind
Bled into my heart
Until that torch you brought
Waxed upon my skin
Scrawled the words upon my eyes
That I need you to say
I hear your smile on the phone
It eases all my pain

Alright
Bleed it out
Write it down now
Pilgrim

How long
Have I screamed in silence
Until you came along
Too many skills
That I forgot
Black heart that's in your hands now
I see it bleeding
And so I live
Loving life now
A pilgrim
