Lyrics[]

Let me serve you with my mind
Let me serve you with my mind
Let me leave this grieving sand and sky far behind

Let me serve you with my tongue
Let me serve you with my tongue
Let me say your name all day 'til my mouth goes numb

And when the sun comes up
Open up the blind
Let me hear the machines' great gears squeal and grind

Yeah, let me serve you 'til it's over
Let me serve you 'til it's all over
When the world is giving your secrets all away
Let me give you cover

Let me serve you with my body
Let me serve you with my body
Let me fight now until the end of time
The last limit
Yeah yeah
