[Verse 1]
Well, now on a summer night
In a dusky room
Come a little piece of the Lord's undying light
Crying like he swallowed the fiery moon
Well, in his mother's arms
It was all the beauty I could take
Like the missing words to some prayer
Oh, that I could never make
[Chorus]
In a world so hard and dirty
So fouled and confused
Searching for a little bit of God's mercy
I found living proof
[Verse 2]
Well, I put my heart and soul, babe
I put 'em high up on a shelf
Yeah, right next to that faith
The faith that I'd lost in myself
I went down into the desert city
Yeah, just tryin' so hard to shed my skin
I crawled deep into some kind of darkness
Lookin' to burn out every, every trace of who I'd been
Well, now on a summer night
In a dusky room
Come a little piece of the Lord's undying light
Crying like he swallowed the fiery moon
Well, in his mother's arms
It was all the beauty I could take
Like the missing words to some prayer
Oh, that I could never make

In a world so hard and dirty
So fouled and confused
Searching for a little bit of God's mercy

I crawled deep into some kind of darkness
