You Want It Darker

If you are the dealer br>
I'm out of the game br>
If you are the healer br>
It means I'm broken and lame br>
If thine is the glory then br>
Mine must be the shame br>
You want it darker br>
We kill the flame br>
Magnified sanctified br>
Be thy holy name br>
Vilified crucified br>
In the human frame br>
A million candles burning br>
For the help that never came br>
You want it darker br>
Hineni hineni br>
I'm ready my Lord br>
There's a lover in the story br>
But the story's still the same br>
There's a lullaby for suffering br>
And a paradox to blame br>
But it's written in the scriptures br>
And it's not some idle claim br>
You want it darker br>
We kill the flame br>
They're lining up the prisoners br>
And the guards are taking aim br>
I struggled with some demons br>
They were middle class and tame br>
I didn't know I had permission br>
To murder and to maim br>
You want it darker br>
Hineni hineni br>
I'm ready my Lord br>
Magnified sanctified br>
Be thy holy name br>
Vilified crucified br>
In the human frame br>
A million candles burning br>
For the love that never came br>
You want it darker br>
We kill the flame br>
And if you are the dealer br>
Let me out of the game br>
If you are the healer br>
Means I'm broken and lame br>
If thine is the glory br>
Then mine must be the shame br>
You want it darker br>
Hineni hineni br>
I'm ready my Lord br>
Hineni hineni br>
I'm ready my Lord br>
I'm ready my Lord br>
Hineni hineni br>
I'm br>
Hineni br>
Hineni hineni br>
Hineni br>
Hineni hineni br>
Hineni hineni br>
