Phinehas Tetelestai Lyrics

Oh, how I long to see the end
Of every ending
To breathe before my last
And begin beginning

Would you catch the wind with your arm
Or lift my oceans with a heave
All hell sound your sirens
Hold your breath for three words conceived:

It is finished

Walking down the streets
I watch you turn your face from me
They ripped the skin from my back
Dissecting eternity

You clothed me in darkness
Given a rose, but wearing the thorns instead

My last breath

I watch God hang his robes over the sun
To hide a child becoming corruption

Clean hands
Eternity nailed to a tree
How tired you must have been

Clean hands
From a garden to misery
Bearing the weight of men Yet you raise yourself higher
To take your last breath

Demons pause with terror

I am blood enough to never run dry
Still you despise me
Sinking the spear in my side
When you hung beside me on that day

Cursing at the wind will not stop the message I send

Clean hands
Eternity nailed to a tree
How tired you must have been

Clean hands
From a garden to misery
Bearing the weight of men
Yet you raise yourself higher
To take your last breath

(Bear witness once and for all)
It is finished

Would you catch the wind with your arm
Or lift my oceans with a heave
All hell, sound your sirens
Hold your breath for the words concieved
