pull the wool from my eyes, sensitize me
cut the cancer from inside, purify me
send your cleansing rain, saturate me
burn away this pain, drench and drain me

placed beneath this still sky
only reflecting its pale blue
so imperfect in contrast
and yet we continue to do the things we do

set ablaze this garden
ignited by sulfurous pride
cauterized creation
when will we feel the burning inside?

ashes, ashes, we all fall down

set ablaze this garden
ignited by sulfurous pride
cauterized creation
when will we feel the burning inside?

pull the wool from my eyes, sensitize me
cut the cancer from inside, purify me
send your cleansing rain, saturate me
burn away this pain, drench and drain me

ashes, ashes, we all fall down
