conception 03:10
i'm staring through your window in the snow you can't see me, but i think he knows the smile on his face leering vulture grin i want to hate you, but i know that ours is not to choose i can see how this is gonna go and it feels like losing blood and skin and bone you'll be in his arms and i'll be in the cold i'll always be the one out in the cold i can't blink and i can't look away. where's my son?

immaculate 04:39
you've gone to glass this room the foundry you were poured out he took your body i watched you burning full of god's glory the pillar of moses he took you from me i'm just a candle and his light absorbs me i'm not enough now when we were both candles you could adore me but everything's changed now i'm not enough now
3.
i would have married you for love but now it's something you're above you won't say it but i know you'll never be my blushing bride you just need someone, anyone at your side you won't say it but i know i'll still marry you but i can't love you it wouldn't be right he could have anyone he liked but he had to go and take what's mine and leave me empty and leave me low you won't say it but i know i'll still marry you, but i can't love you it wouldn't be right i'll still marry you, but you can't love me. it wouldn't be right.
4.
you'll never be my wife and he won't be my son but jonah ran from god and taught us we can't run i can't disappear and i can't get away there's nothing i can do but stay with you a mother and a virgin and that's god's good truth and i'll tell everyone he gave us the child in a dream and that's god's good truth
