Lost - Sophia

Filled my sons with fear and shame

Chased by visions of Jesus

And in my dreams consumed by flames

But I still believe in angels

Even as they watch me whither away

Please just give me one last breath

Before I pass from this place

One last breath for the wicked

One last breath for the sin

One last breath for the lost, the nameless

And those that I’ve forgotten

And one last breath to ease the darkness

In those I love when I’m gone

One last breath to say goodbye

Please don’t mind me as I linger on Don’t mind me as I linger on.

And I still believe in angels

And footsteps in the snow

And I still believe in the goodness of Man

Despite the evil in my world

And I still believe in love

Though I’m happy to be free of the pain

But please just give me one last breath

Before I pass from this place

One last breath for the wicked

One last breath for the sin

One last breath for the lost, the nameless

And those that I’ve forgotten

One last breath for the beauty

For the sunset

And the sorrow

One last breath for our children

We leave burdened with our tomorrows
