Sweet Salvation

Sweet salvation
Is a place that I haven't seen for a while
Sweet Salvation
Is a place where even vacant hearts smile
Sweet Salvation
Where thimbles full of blood turn black
Sweet Salvation
Where my vacant heart may never go back

Lacerated feelings
Which haunt your every move
Cut throat healing
That I know you don't approve
The blackened heart
That you left further charred
It was ripped apart
And your soul was left barred

Sweet salvation
Is a place where savoured memories live on
Sweet salvation
Is a place where people know when you've gone
Sweet salvation
We will never quite make it their on our own
Sweet Salvation
Where golden hearts will never die all alone

Stitched up mind
The recurrence that broke it
Your walking blind
But you know how to provoke it
Burn that paper
Where your face once beamed
Unconditioned beauty
Is all that it once seamed

Sweet salvation
A place where everything is always up to you
Sweet salvation
A place where there's never nothing else to do
Sweet salvation
Where people may take their own morale stance
Sweet salvation
Where we all deserve one more second chance

The serrated edges
Of this old frayed humanity
These lost remains
Of what we thought was clarity
Where minds think
And forgotten thoughts all meet
Walk upon thorns
Let the pain purify your feet

sweet salvation
Comes to me
Sweet salvation
Cannot see
Sweet salvation
Is it you
Sweet Salvation
Is my everview
