Grand Again

Fame, you’d give an eye for life in sin
Pain, like a dawn
There’s no disguise where light is born
To show the way

Nothing could make me grand again
I am second for all eternity
Make me wise and brave to spend them well
My hours late

Shame, repellent dark and primal need
Want some pain, these bloody wounds that never bleed
Shamed
Never meant to disappoint you, never meant to fall so deep
But light alone from morning star will hush your soul to sleep

Nothing could make me grand again
Under whatever name, I am
Make me long for faith, for love like yours, In hour’s late

Talk, release the strain
Talk, let’s talk about you for a change
I’m getting so sleepy, speaking my own mind
Sane, you know it’s all or nothing now
Sane

And nothing could make me, grand again
Not in whatever way
May you, make me strong enough
In love and faith
The hour’s late
