All hail! The phrase of tainted prose
The etchings that cover the rose
Well of thought of you, must surely be denied
For impure are the arts
That are painted in your eyes [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/a/arsis/return.html ]
Tonight, our lies shall be known, my faithless one
Tonight, our lies shall be known
And I'll await my heart's return
Resting in the shadow of a tomb
For a presence ever lost
In the presence of forever:
What he is saying is that his heart is gone hes waiting for it to return to him and work. He has also lost something or someone in his life that he really loved alot and now his soul is paying for it. God is telling him he has to rest in a tomb of saddness just for a little bit and it will get better
