I stand on the bloody steps of a church burned of nitre and rain, and I view only happiness
And I spread my body to accept the rain with open arms

I accept the tides changing, revealing disabled warships that drifted out to the triangular sea
And I open my eyes wide to accept the frozen spirits of old

That traps my imprint in the mud,
That waits for my return,
Or will you just let me drop to my knees?
