Lyrics

There is a marker
No one sees it cause of sand
That has covered over
All the messages it kept
From misunderstanding
What original truth was
And now expanding
In a faith, but not in love..

What went wrong?
Walking tightrope high
Over moral ground
Seeing visions of
Falling up somehow
Oh do come down
With the living, let
What is living love
So unforgiving, yet
Needing forgiveness first..

God, what do you say?

Those undecided
Needn't have faith to be free
And those misguided
There was a plan for them to be..
Now you got both sides
Claiming 'killing in god's name'
But god is nowhere
To be found, conveniently..

What goes on?
Walking tightrope high
Over moral ground
Walk the bridges be-
-Fore you burn them down!
Do come round
With the living, let
What is living love
Unforgiving, yet
Needing forgiveness first..

God, what do you say?
God, what do you say?

I feel a sickness..
A sickness coming over me
Like watching freedom
Being sucked straight out to sea
And the solution?
Well, from me far would it be
But the delusion
Is feeling dangerous to me

What goes wrong?
Walking tightrope high
Over moral ground
Seeing visions of
Falling up somehow
Oh, do come down
With the living, let
What is living love
Unforgiving...yet
Needing forgiveness first?

Oh, what do you say?
God, what do you say?

What do you say?

Calling out, calling out
