World's apart

I am the only one to blame for this. Somehow it all ends up the same. Soaring on the wings of selfish pride I flew too high, And like Icharus I collide... With a world I've tried so hard to leave behind. To rid myself of all but love, to give and die. To turn away and not become, Another nail to pierce the skin of One who loved, More deeply than the oceans, more abundant than the tears, Of a world that embraces every heartache. And can I be the one to sacrifice? Or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow... [To love you] Take my world apart [To need you] I am on my knees [To love you] Take my world apart [To need you] Broken on my knees Said and done I stand alone, Amongst remains of a life I should not own. It takes all I have to believe in the mercy that covers me. Did you really have to die for me? All I am for all you are cause what I need and what I believe, Are world's apart... And I pray [To love you] Take my world apart [To need you] I am on my knees [To love you] Take my world apart [To need you] Broken on my knees I look beyond the empty cross forgetting what my life has cost. Wipe away the crimson stains and dull the nails that still remain. More and more I need you now. I owe you more each passing hour. The battle between grace and pride I gave up not so long ago. So steal my heart and take the pain, Wash my feet and cleanse my pride. Take the selfish, take the weak, and all the things I cannot hide. Take my beauty take my tears, This sin-soaked heart and make it yours. Take my world apart, take it now, take it now. To serve the ones that I despise, speak the words I can't deny. Watch the world I used to know fall to dust and blow away. I look beyond the empty cross, forgetting what my life has cost, Wipe away the crimson stains and dull the nails that still remain. Steal my heart and take the pain, take the selfish, take the weak. And all the things I cannot hide, take the beauty, take my tears. Take my world apart...
