Beaten

I flew over the mud
And no feather from my wings
Got dirt with sin
Now behold as i weep
For i am no god, and yet
My faith has been sealed
Oh, it has been sealed

Tears of sorrow wet my cheek
Sadness for the long gone love
The long gone love i left behind
Creature of night, once so sweet
Agonized in the light
In the light of death, lies and mournful times
When the hate for god was a hatred of aeons

Father, I realize with fear my feathers fell
The sun is gone
And shadows stretch themselves across the land

At last the love becomes our own
The passion in the cross
Lies on fallen leaves
As winter comes to melt our souls with the heat of the snow
My wings now ache and so is my fate
Looking at them high
Realize with fear my feathers fell
If I ever had any

Black leather wings crown my weeping self
My beloved night
And the blood in the cross that we longed for
Autumn carried on
The snow is gone
And our souls melted with the sun
