Prayers

tears from your broken life
suffocate my desire
you put the words into my mouth
but i can't even make a sound
i know i'll let you down

you said that you'd love me
if i would consume your sin
and learn to die slow
i know i never could
i know i'll let you down

your face turns out a smile
as you ridicule me
tear into my skin
i can understand
you know i'll let you down
