I Stand for You
I stand for you and lay for you as wills your perfect heart,
plucked from the Earth by time and toil to fulfill patient cause.
I beg from you an answer true to my bold suit and part.
For Diamondhearts and passioned priests the truth is as a dart
that pierces deep while mortals sleep to lay the pathway's laws.
I stand for you and lay for you as wills your perfect heart.
