Lyrics: Clay

Clay hands
Clay heart
Fragile in beauty 
Clay dreams falling
Falling shards to ground
Oh father, father I tried my best
To make real the life of this flesh
So molded and sculpted by you
For this spark I die
Die over and over again

Clay thoughts
Clay fears
Shaped to be brittle
Clay jar filling
Filling with hope to be more
Oh father, father I tried to be
All you made me to be
I tumble, descending from you
For this spark I die
Die over and over again

Oh father, father
I’m more than just
Rolled dust, tears of a golem
For this knowledge I slip down
These hollowed casts and break

This clay shame bleeding (Clay shame, clay needs) 
Clay needs heeding (Graceless and dirty)
Clay will numbing (Clay will crumbling)
Clay ties crumbling (Crumbling, dust to mouth)
Oh punished life, forgive of me (Oh father, father I’ve bled all my nails)
This sentient heart (Clawed earth and rusted blood)
Alluvial fire (Scoured by this fire, I’m cracked)
Cracking all that I thought I could be (Cracked all that I thought I could be)
All of me (Know me, father)
Please let me (Love me, father)
Break down these chains (Let go of these chains)
That I might die (That die, die)
Die over and over again (Over and over again)
(Clay hands, clay heart)
(Fragile in beauty)
