Darkness You Give

Jandek


Without your kiss
I don't want to live 
I'll stay forever 
In the darkness you give 
It's just that I consider it my due 
For all the transgressions I made against you 
I don't mind how far I have to fall 
To find your mercy at the end of it all 
Please take me back to you 
There's nothing else I'd want to do 
I feel like an alien underground 
I've got little forces through which I'm bound 
With you at the end I may defend 
And lay me down here to mend 
My broken scarred body 
My soul does wait 
For you to open your heavenly gate 
Without your kiss 
I don't want to live 
I'll stay forever 
In the darkness you give 
I'll just consider it my due 
For all the transgressions I've made against you 
I don't mind how far I have to fall 
To find your mercy at the end of it all 
Please take me back to you 
There's nothing else I would want to do 
I feel like an alien underground 
I've got little forces through which I'm bound 
With you at the end I may defend 
My broken scarred body 
My soul does wait 
For you to open your heavenly gate
