Went back, said amen, asked forgiveness from my friends
Looked back, looked away, waited for another day
Looked to the terminal door where I couldn’t speak to ask for more
I waited but, I lost the key, my secrets got the best of me.
Looked around said amen, thought about your face again,
The book was full, the bell would ring, and we didn’t feel a goddamn thing
Reached out, took my hand, pulled me from a bitter end
Made it so, I turned the page, end a chapter begin an age.
We see our lives through telescopes, crafted by our fears,
Our hands are closed our tongues are tied, we surrender to the years
There’s nothing new to justify the panic in out hearts
We do our best to rectify, delusion as an art
Reached out, said amen, the void has stripped the tide again,
Looking through, what I see, holding up discovery
The Earth Is new beneth my feet, the air is thin, inside and free
I see the sun, I am the stars, I see the beauty in my scars
It came and passed and now it seems forever is a dream
If it’s now or never, then now’s enough for me
The God we praise is in our heads, and maybe that’s enough
To turn back time and see the garden inside each of us
Truth is on our side
Truth is on our side
Truth is on our side
