Bleed Now, Dear Heart

Written by Kimmo Ihanus.

Sinner
Here the word
The graves are now open
I crown you
in blood and wounds
I drain you of life
That you refuse
To honor
Once so radiant
now in the dark
Every angel
once adored you
Mocked and scorned
beyond endurance
All the beauty
stripped away
Yet I still know you
I still see you
Through the shadow
through the shame

Bleed now
dear heart
Bleed into the ground
Call for your salvation
vanished into clouds
Where is your wrath now
Where is the fire
The sky goes dark
the sun withdraws

Come
sweet icon
I welcome you
I will carry
what I cannot bear
tombs are now open
Christ denied
three times
before the dawn
Lord
have mercy for these tears
Or let the darkness swallow all

Bleed now
dear heart
Bleed into the ground
Call for your salvation
vanished into clouds
Where is your wrath now
Where is the fire
The sky goes dark
the sun withdraws

Now we sit
and weep
beside the graves
Rest now
rest
close your tired eyes
Into the earth
into the silence

Bleed now
dear heart
Bleed into the ground
Call for your salvation
vanished into clouds
Where is your wrath now
Where is the fire
The sky goes dark
the sun withdraws

The graves
broke open
The dead
walked out
Bleed now
The sun is gone
