Dorothea

You keep me in the dark
I will hold by the knife
Did I say I'd be
Your everlasting light
The staid upon your hands
Whispers from the dark
Blood of mine the kin
The fire from my heart

This is what I've become
This is what I am
A child of love and grace
Building castles in the sand
This is what I've become
This is what I am
A child of love and grace
Now my family cease to stand

A symbol I hold dear
An object of desire
Tears that burn my face
Though shattered dreams conspire
There we shall cry
In this nightmare and pain
Melting in the fire
Alone and one again

This is what I've become
This is what I am
A child of love and grace
Building castles in the sand
This is what I've become
This is what I am
A child of love and grace
Now my family cease to stand

I succumb to the fate
Numb to reality
Empty and alone
As fate passed me by
Innocent I did not comprehend

This is what I've become
This is what I am
A child of love and grace
Building castles in the sand
This is what I've become
This is what I am
A child of love and grace
Now my family cease to stand

Dorothea
Oh this is what I am
Dorothea
Everything's gonna all be all right
