lyrics

Oh hey, welcome. You’re familiar.
I have seen you here before.
You have been here in the mirror.
You have walked right through my door.

You have feasted at my table
You have joined me in the streets
You believed in help and progress
You were human. You got weak.

Then you set something in motion
While the others were asleep.
It made darkness fall too early
And it made my mother weep.

But it was always bound to happen,
And I’m glad the one was you
From the bread we broke together
To the veil we tore right through.

I’d invite you in again, you know,
A hundred times or more.
I would offer you my wine
And I would seat you on my floor.

Because even after everything —
yes, even after this —
All there is for you is love,
And I am waiting for your kiss.
