Veni Domine - Beyond The Doom lyrics

The empty eyes and shaking hands Betray the state of his mind Only the pale moonlight Enlightens the path of this lonely man See the anxiety in his eyes Like he knew what was wrong But he was never that strong All the goals made up But did he never score No one will never know Because no one never saw The tear in the jester's eye He was always very friendly And gentle so it seemed Behind the curtain no one saw The lion and the lamb How it ripped his heart in two When forced to make a stand His heart could be found in a building With a cross on the roof But after the lightening He's nowhere to be found Some say he was lifted from the ground He was that kind of man So I'm left alone Judgement Day has come and gone I saw the sides never shown I was surrounded by the depths of the abyss Sometimes it seemed so out of control So I drowned my sorrows in a sea of pain Kept my heart still pumping But my quest became in vain Beyond the doom The flesh is marked by blisters Beyond the doom Love has vanished from the face of the earth The unforgiven are those who never dared To give up the bad habits To be filled with the spirit Or try their wings in faith To walk against the wind To take the outstretched hand Or to walk out into the unknown Never dared to be cleansed by The breeze from heaven With my fist in the air I hailed the new order Thought the message was right Because the old was a failure I kept myself posted Read the signs of the times I knew the heartbeat of the holy But I fell out of line How I regret I was there but I fell down The easy way ain't hard enough And the hard way is such a lonely path The role of the martyr is calling my name Abba father, please hear the prayer that I pray 9.
