"Crushed Embers" lyrics

A woman with a voice full of tears
Absent from her place among us
All the joy had gone from her
All this aching must find an end

An ox pulls away her ghost
I'll be your echo again
And in that very moment
I was your echo again

And those that wept for you
Forget their weeping soon
As the blood drops slowly from
From the fingers of God
Dark fears travel with me
And it's deeper than fear

I waited such a long time
And questioned
My sanity
You hunted at the wrong time
And fell in pain
To your knees

A woman with a voice full of tears
Absent from her place among us
All the joy had gone from her
All this aching must find an end

I waited such a long time
And questioned
My sanity
You hunted at the wrong time
And fell in pain
To your knees
I faded from my bloodline
And took leave
Of humanity
