Baptize me

This heart has been burnt in life's heat,
I walk alone with these endless miles beneath my feet.
I keep sending out SOS signs for blind eyes to see,
My faithlessness reeking off too long,
So douse me with holy water and baptize me,
Give me a holy mouth, 
To pour all my unforgivable sins in,
Build me a temptation that craves me,
Lay me down with reckless hands, 
Softness is a stranger,
Her address unknown to me,
This, here, is a ghost town,
There's nothing left to see,
Only dead memories live inside of me.
The last of my dreams have gone to sleep,
It's been too long, I'm just running on empty,
It's been too long, I'm just running on empty,
Maybe I am a thing that grows in silence
And keeps passing every misery. 

Call me love

I'm throwing up my hands.  I don't want this war Don't let me leave Stop.  I'm throwing up my hands.  Waving the White Flag ...
