"What I Leave Behind" lyrics

"What I Leave Behind"

Sickness spreads throughout us
Farther, deeper
Like fire it hides
Far below

A wild beast awakens
To darken the sun
Its eyes rule the fear
Fear that follows you
Like a shadow
A shadow that darkens the sun

Falling from the sky
Buried underground
An undefined form
Of our own demise

Sickness spreads throughout us
Farther, deeper
Like fire it hides
Far below

Farther, deeper
Farther, deeper

Falling from the sky
Buried underground
An undefined form
Of our own demise

Oh Father
Is this your God's will?
Oh, Mother
You let the black sun rise
Oh, Son
This is the gift I offer
Oh, Daughter
I see embers in your eyes
