You want it.....
You want it darker
If you are the dealerI’m out of the gameIf you are the healerMeans I’m broken and lameIf thine is the gloryThen mine must be the shameYou want it darkerWe kill the flame
Magnified, sanctifiedBe Thy Holy NameVilified, crucifiedIn the human frameA million candles burningFor the help that never cameYou want it darker
Hineni HineniI’m ready, my Lord
There’s a lover in the storyBut the story’s still the sameThere’s a lullaby for sufferingAnd a paradox to blameBut it’s written in the scripturesAnd it’s not some idle claimYou want it darkerWe kill the flame
They’re lining up the prisoners andThe guards are taking aimI struggled with some demonsThey were middle-class and tameI didn’t know I had permissionTo murder and to maimYou want it darker
Hineni HineniI’m ready, my Lord
Magnified, sanctifiedBe Thy Holy NameVilified, crucifiedIn the human frameA million candles burningFor the love that never cameYou want it darkerWe kill the flame
If you are the dealerLet me out of the gameIf you are the healerI’m broken and lameIf thine is the gloryMine must be the shameYou want it darker
Hineni HineniHineni HineniI’m ready, my Lord
