My Epic - Lower Still Lyrics

Look, he's covered in dirt
The blood of his mother
Has mixed with the Earth

And she's just a child
Who's throbbing in pain
From the terror of birth
By the light of a cave

Now they've laid that small baby
Where creatures come eat
Like a meal for the swine
Who have no clue that he is still
Holding together the world that they see

They don't know just how low he has to go
Lower still

Look now he's kneeling
He's washin' their feet
Though they're all filthy fishermen
Traitors and theives

Now he's pouring his heart out
And they're fallin' asleep
But he has to go
Lower still

There is greater love to show
Hands to the plow
Further down now
Blood must flow

All these steps are personal
All his shame is ransom
Oh do you see, do you see just how
Low he has come, do you see it now?

No one takes from him
What he freely gives
Away

Beat in his face
Tear the skin off his back
Lower still... Lower still

Strip off his clothes
Make him crawl through the streets
Lower still... Lower still

Hang him like meat
On a criminal's tree
Lower still... Lower still

Bury his corpse in the earth
Like a seed, like a seed, like a seed
Lower still

Lower still, lower still, lower still, lower still

The earth explodes
She cannot hold him!
And all therein
Is placed beneath him

And death itself no longer reigns
It cannot keep the ones he gave himself to save
And as the universe shatters
The darkness disolves

He alone will be honored
We will bathe in his splendor
As all heads bow lower still!
All heads bow lower still!
