Age Of Insects
I walk the world on insect legs
Beneath an unforgiving sun
Eat the dirt throughout my days
On the dirt, and dirt I come undone
Messiah, born in Bethlehem
Won't find me lying there
The world's too big for him to see me
Or hear the things I've said
Hold me to you as I pray
Take the rest of the world away
My blood runs warm because of you
The scales fall out of my eyes
I laughed in the keep of a man
With a rose my mandibles are caked in trash
Thought you wouldn't recognize me
In the black of soot and ash
Don't turn deaf into my voice
But one thing I want you to know
I have always loved you
Though my life has never said so
Hold me to you as I pray
Take the rest of the world away
My blood runs warm because of you
The scales fall out of my eyes
Hold me to you as I pray
Take every other thing away
My heart is breaking out for you
The scales are out of my eyes
I love you Lord, and I lift my voice
To worship you, oh, my soul rejoice
Take joy my King, in what you hear
May it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ear
