The Joy Set Before Me Lyrics

Verse 1

I'm bunkered down and waiting out the night

The last of the perfume has finally dried

The house lays silently with every heart at rest

While mine violently pound against my chest

Verse 2

I'm bunkered down and waiting out tonight

This just one more meal before goodbyes

The house is solemn but no one understands

The final hours slipping through our grasp

Oh, ohh (4x)

Chorus

What a joy set before me

I will endure for the joy set before me (5x)

I will endure

Verse 3

My blood seems to know there are souls to atone

It gives with no concern for it's own

And it will not stop until every drop is spilled
