Alone
My Epic
Letra

Am I a barren temple left for newer ways
Of speaking mysteries my veils cannot contain?
Should I prepare to winter spans again of silent
Centuries pierced for only certain men?

What if I wake to find you've gone?
What if your presence was withdrawn
And I was mistaken all along to think I could become your home?

It'd be no surprise to finally know
That I am truly alone
Come death but likely sooner I'll be alone

You moved your temple inside our bones and
It's so hard to trust that you
Won't move again

For all eternity
You stood with your father in perfect unity
And when you walked the earth
You only went where he led
You only spoke what he said
So for everything you left
And all of the glory you forfeit
No matter how
Low you were sent, you still couldn't know

What it's like to be alone
Disgraced but you were never alone
Betrayed but you were never alone
Tortured but still never alone and
Nothing is worse than being alone

I have been thinking hard about us trading places
That maybe I could wear
Your beauty if you put on my shame
Jesus I've been trying so hard to look like
You that I almost missed the
Worst of what I put you through
You didn't die for sins, you died covered in them
A prideful lying thief
Gasping out my final breaths
For that one moment you looked just like me
So your father left you and you
Died completely alone
For me, you were alone
He couldn't bear it so he left you all alone
No better promise than true sympathy
You conquered death all alone
'Cause you've known the deepest of all our needs
Never again, never alone
