Cry of The Afflicted

My Renewing

Cry of The Afflicted


His eye has caught me now I can't escape his gaze 
The Artist holds me up under the light, appraising me 
In shame, I cast my eyes down to the ground 
He'll take hold of me, and flesh it out, with purpose, with a vengeance, blade in hand 

Carve me up, strip away, tear mine down, my shape is yet to come 
When will I rouse, from the perfect rest he gives? 
How will the world see me then, as his own, his masterpiece 
His eye has caught me now I can't escape his gaze 
The Artist holds me up under the light, appraising me 

In shame, I cast my eyes down to the ground 
My twisted shape and burdened thoughts will be severed 
Sorrow will fade with my nature restored, my nature renewed 
When will I rouse, from the perfect rest he give? 

How will the world see me then, as his own, his masterpiece 
The shape He wants, that I can't see; Is the essence he grants 
I've carried the waste, shapeless and vague, for so long it clings to me 
Pieces will fall, be swept away; The Artist will restore me
