Blanket of Earth by Merzah Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2011

All this is raining down on me
And I can’t ignore this regret
I’ve got to separate the truth from the lies
There isn’t much left to say just a reminder
Of all the things that I take for granted
Yet still I complain

Take my apology with a grain of salt
My betrayal seems never ending but I know that with time comes strength and deliverance

My mouth is running over
Stop the flow of degrading words that fall from my lips
And catch the remainder in a basket; burn them with my many offences
Stop the flow

I feel dead but I’m very much alive
Can anyone answer the lost paradigm of oxymoronic ideology?

Breeding faith beneath a sky that seems indifferent
The sun is shining but the birds are nowhere to be seen
Pain envelops my soul; my God I must change
Trenched and covered by my blanket of earth
A small encasement has kept me from being crushed
I desire not to be what I am
Trenched and covered by my blanket of earth

Crawling out of the darkness
I am blinded by the light

Humility is no longer my enemy
I’ve bitten the bullet and called an end to this madness

My mouth was running over
I’ve stopped the flow of degrading words that fell from my lips
And caught the remainder in a basket
I’ve burned them with my many offences
I’ve stopped the flow

I’ll savor the loss of the liar that I used to be
I’ll sever the ties
If this planet is doomed then let it be known that my understanding will outshine the sun
Ring in the day
