Cascade - The Dear Hunter

I heard a call in my sleep again;

I brought my body to the altar

But a good man said that I raised the dead

I’m seeing forgotten forms from a different age

Half-hearted truths hanging in the air with the Holy Ghost

I’m singing hymns with the devil in confessional

I’ve been running through the night again

Trying to find where the wild things wouldn’t go

But I’m keeping it in

Hate the sinner, never hate the sin

I keep waking in the strangest states, and drawing lines around my body

To recall my place;

I feel the heat of a thousand breaths upon my neck

And the gaze of a thousand eyes burning holes into my back

And now I’m stuck between alive and after

I’ve been running through the night again

Trying to find where the wild things wouldn’t go

But I’m keeping it in

Hate the sinner, never hate the sin

I’ve been searching for a remedy

Hands to guide where the shadows never show

I’ll never know

I keep looking for a quicker fix

But I’m afraid of finding what it is

I know that I just need a quicker fix

Hate the sinner, not the sin

I keep looking for a quicker fix, but

I wouldn’t know just what to do with it

Hate the sinner, not the sin!

I’ve been running through the night again

Trying to find where the wild things wouldn’t go

But I’m keeping it in

Hate the sinner, never hate the sin

I’ve been searching for a remedy

Hands to guide where the shadows never show

I’ll never know
