smelled its fear
played its game
for hours on end
playing with grace
wondering
how was i gonna make it home
o death i feel your sting
o fear of the right thing
o fear of the Right One
and i turned my heart from listening
from a refrain of love
to a mocking laugh
and i knew my heart was wrong
yet i found myself sitting down
playing deaths game
letting sin reign
in flesh and skin
o to sit here in its stench
sin and death
death and sin
o to know that i am wrong
so far from You
who is so near
so far from You
who is so near
