Absorb

from Satellites by Sea Couch

lyrics

Help, reach out yor hand.
I can't stand
where people know me.
I've never knelt before the cross,
but I've lost
what was bestowed me.

To He who hasn't got a name,
I beg absorb this fated pain.

When I was a curly-headed babe,
they'd say,
"The world's for your takin.'"
Now, my hair is coarse and gray.
I've no faith,
but I feel forsaken.

To He who hasn't got a name,
I beg absorb this fated pain.

In the darkest hour of night,
I fight
these dreams that haunt me
of how I lived before she left.
Bereft
of all but what taunts me.

To He who hasn't got a name,
I beg absorb this fated pain.
To heaven I have not a claim,
but Hell and Earth feel much the same.
