Rapture Lyrics - Singles - Beyond The Embrace

Why now am I smitten? 

My wings melted off by the sun 

Amidst a retina divided to fractions 

All fragments victims of apprehension 

Benighted by infinite failures 

Since I've been stained by this rapture 

I spit at the sun and the moon 

Now I take my pain and walk the path 

Drenched with the blood of the angels 

What will become of me? 

As I paint my walls with suggestion 

No multiple colors, all shades of black 

I take my place among the ruins of our lost generation 

All systems screaming, all but one 

Now I keep this pain, a token of hate 

Will eat my scars and throw them up again 

Become my sin, become my scythe, pierce my skin 

Turn my cards face down 

Now as I look to the sky 

Lost, it has my admiration 

Free from the damned, that pulls the world down 

Now I take my pain and walk the path 

Drenched with the blood of the angels 

What will become of me? 

Be knighted by infinite failures 

Since I've been stained by this rapture 

I spit at the sun and the moon 

Now I take my pain and walk the path 

Drenched with the blood of the angels 

What will become of me?
