light 4. temple of glass

My heart lies always on this altar
My eyes have faded, and still I wander
Some long path of warfare and thunder
To find some feeling long since gone
A new religion to build meaning on

All the songs on the radio are blurring together
Asleep on the rooftops, alone with me
I turn off the TV, so the only sound
Is the white noise of the splitting sea

My heart is a liar
But there is a fire inside
I cannot define or deny

I have got to read it again
'Cause the first time left things open to interpretation

I have got to read it again
Because I feel as though I am missing things

I have got to see you again
'Cause I am losing ground
Inch by inch, wish by wish.
