Listen Lyrics

among the sea of faithlessness I see
i'm wondering who looks anything like me
among the questions answers pointless hypocrites
the holy people are the ones hiding

i am listening
someone's gotta be the audience
for all this silence around me
someone's gotta be the silent one, quiet one to listen
down on your knees sister

breathing slowly watching your chest rise
watching you dream - watching you open your eyes
we are a beautiful distraction to everything that matters
why can't we get it right

[chorus]

and the fiery ball is rolling on behind the distance
and in my prayers I say - there go my perfect visions
as the color spread out and collided with the night
restlessness is fading, but so am I

[chorus]
