Monument - Eyes of Sorrow Lyrics

Through the eyes of wonder I see
Though I cannot flee the sin in my way
Entombed in darkness for my gift
My mind in peril strains my sanity
If I could see evil with my hands
And feel pain with my eyes
I'd consume the knowledge that I crave
And break through the disguise

Through the eyes of sorrow I see
Wade through the rays and the
Flesh of the life-giving spirits
Have I been crucified
Will god save me from this pain?
My rotting pupils gaze on death
They cannot fix on the life they breathe
Taste the spoils of my disease

Through the eyes of sorrow I feel
Sickness and death following me
Through the eyes of wonder I fear
My conscience will never be clear

In the iniquities of pain
Lie the darkness for me
I cannot see the error of my ways
I cannot see the suffering
Absent are the eyes
That worship life
In their place resides
The emptiness

Through the eyes of sorrow I feel
Sickness and death following me
Through the eyes of wonder I fear
My conscience will never be clear
