Poor Nameless Boy - Leave Myself Behind lyrics

It's hard to live in a barren land I can't sleep with the shadows near me Waking up is a haunting dream Metaphor of the war within me It's wearing down my body It's wearing down my spirit Strip me out of my tattered clothing Take my heart of dust and stone May I walk, renewed and humble Leave behind my mind of old Place others around me Full of love and patience and Stay with me as I Leave myself behind Stay with me as I Leave myself behind I'm tired of being a tree with no leaves I wish I found my roots run deep Stand my ground as a driven sapling 'Till a timid wind knocks me from my feet Wearing down my body It's wearing down my spirit Want my chills and steal my [?] Dig me out of the soil and sin Plant me in a vibrant vineyard Surround me with fountains as I repent Unify my pa**ions With others in bloom Stay with me as I Leave myself behind Stay with me as I Leave myself behind Stay with me as I Leave myself behind Stay with me as I Leave myself behind
