Lyrics:

I tried
To reach you but I'm forced into a new life
To wallow in disgrace of my creation
Particular arrangements formed in my mind
In front of me from heaven's dangling keys

I had my way when I was king
And through decay made pretty things
Now my dominion's gone cause
You won't see me, love me, leave me

I'm the one you can't erase
I'm the tide that pulls you in
Now you're locked in my embrace
Sweetly cloying on me

I lay
In doubt about the world and how I broke it
When I slowly moved my face across the ocean
And spent my days with you in perfect gardens
And set you on your way to live with me

But now in punishment I watch
The ocean waves destroy the rocks
And hear you talk of my disgrace
And how my words have been erased
And left beneath the scorching sands
As lands have shifted into place
And wait for your return when
You believe I made the seasons run

I'm the one you can't erase
I'm the tide that pulls you in
Now you're locked in my embrace
Sweetly cloying on me
It's a trap to call it sin, but I'm trapped in what I've been
I was lost but now I'm saved, sweetly cloying on you

This life has been a den of sin in ways that we should know
Are far below us
But what's the point of praying that you turn away from me
And would he notice?

But I can't deny desire in your eyes, except
You won't see me, love me, goodbye
To you and I
