Travesty

You cover me!
 ♪
 I am spent and with death you paid my ransom
 For the witness of your word
 To bring them is the jackal's sin
 Oh, the eyes of death are upon me
 And the watchman takes his toll
 If this river will run dry
 It will never take us home
 With idle minds we grew unconscious
 As the hunter stalks his prey
 His eyes, his eyes are locked on me
 You cover the darkest part of me
 With a look that's sure to set the captives free
 Oh, make way for I am not the redeemer
 Nor do the mountains fall in my name
 But with slightest cry, my hunter
 You will fail to reach your prey
 Still with idle minds unconscious
 As the hunter stalks his prey
 His eyes, his eyes are locked on me
 You cover the darkest part of me
 With a look that's sure to set the captives free
 With love that the blindest eyes will see
 You cover the darkest part of me
 ♪
 As I am met with travesty
 And I am broken and I am empty
 And through it all I can see your face
 With words unspoken I hear your voice
 I see the hand, the hand that writes it all
 You've called the wind to show its worth
 You've called the sun to brag about its warmth
 Because you are the writer
 Because you are the soul of the world
 You cover the darkest part of me
 With a look that's sure to set the captives free
 With love that the blindest eyes will see
 You cover the darkest part of me
 Because you are the writer
 Because you are the writer
