Thrice - The Messenger lyrics
rate meMark me with fear, I'm trembling Send someone else instead I know my world is ending I can't repay my debt Can I carry such a heavy burden? Can I move when I am paralyzed? I see a fire behind a heavy curtain I lean in closer and I close my eyes Kiss the coals, breathe in smoke, And I say, "Here I am, send me." Lifts my soul, free and so unafraid "Here I am, send me, send me." Free and so unafraid "Here I am, send me." Mark me with fire and Send me among the living dead. They cannot comprehend me; I watch the sickness spread Now, can they hear me when their hearts are hardened? Now, can they see me when they close their eyes? So let me tell you I'm an easy target A wooden saw is quite a way to die Kiss the coals, breathe in smoke, And I say, "Here I am, send me." Lifts my soul, free and so unafraid "Here I am, send me, send me." Free and so unafraid "Here I am, send me." "Here I am, send me."
