Lyrics
?Desireless?
Capers Simmons
VERSE I
There is nothing in the world left to desire anymore
There is nothing on this earth that I still need
Nothing still remains that can be given to make me give you away
And there?s nothing worth living for if ever you were gone from me
CHORUS I
I shall breathe no more ? I will just hold my breath
I will let myself die in your hand, desireless
I shall breathe no more ? I?ll surrender my soul
I will let my flesh crumble to ashes if you make me whole again
VERSE II
If I?m sleeping in the grave, then I will wait for you to wake me
If I should die, can?t I live again?
Can you save my soul from the dark and cold, and rescue me from Hades?
And free me from the final fate of Men
~ CHORUS I ~
CHORUS II
Let my heart beat no more and my spirit abate
I?ll return to the dust and ashes from whence I came
At the end of all days, losing all that I leave
One hope still remains under Heaven, for I believed
~ CHORUS I ~
