Sainthood And Sanctuary

(album: The Cinematic Future - 2020)

Safe from an early grave
But death feels closer still
When does the human soul cave?
To find itself a kill
Promised a crown of glory
Fought for an equal stand
But fortune would never find me
In this blood red land

Why have I given my heart?
I've fallen so far
Because now the future scares me
Why am I broken and small?
I'd sacrifice all
For sainthood and sanctuary

After I sought protection
The saviors broke my bones
Lost streets that I remember
Now lie here alone
Mantras of greater purpose
End up left behind
The faithful don't deserve this
Desperate and blind

Why have I given my heart?
I've fallen so far
Because now the future scares me
Why am I broken and small?
I'd sacrifice all
For sainthood and sanctuary

I would give anything
To know I'm not alone
I'm tired of suffering
When I once had a home

Fallen graces, familiar faces
Never look like mine
Rings of fire and holy water
Never turn back time
Why do I have many questions?
Intel I can't find
Still unsure of my mind's selection
To trust my fallen kind (My fallen kind)

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Why have I given my heart?
I've fallen so far
Because now the future scares me
Why am I broken and small?
I'd sacrifice all
For sainthood and sanctuary

Why have I given my heart?
I've fallen so far
Because now the future scares me
Why am I broken and small?
I'd sacrifice all
For sainthood and sanctuary

I would give anything
To know I'm not alone
I'm tired of suffering
When I once had a home
