We’re reading psalms to the dead Lighting candles to make amends For a voice never to speak again Six feet under for what never should’ve been
Stop living like you walk on water Looking down on all those left to drown Stop living like you walk on water Looking down on all those left to drown
And you know I couldn't find the words before Only if I had another day left here I’d tell you, I'd tell you If I had another day to try to take away your pain Now you're so far out of reach It’s a lesson you can't teach
You love and you lose I wish that you know That it's just a lesson you can't teach You love and you lose I wish that you know That it's just a lesson you can't teach
I’ve seen the scars you’ve tried to hide Searching for answers when you look to the sky Say I’m liar, say I’m a fake I’m far from a saint So I’ll live with my mistakes
If I'm a liar, if I'm a fake I’ll take all these sins And you can burn me at the stake I’ll take all these sins And you can burn me at the stake
And you know I couldn't find the words before Only if I had another day left here I’d tell you, I'd tell you If I had another day to try to take away your pain Now you're so far out of reach It’s a lesson you can't teach
You love and you lose I wish that you know That it's just a lesson you can't teach You love and you lose I wish that you know That it's just a lesson you can't teach
Son of God, are you listening? Son of God, can you hear my cry? We put our faith into you How could you just watch them die? Son of God, are you listening? Son of God, can you hear my cry? We put our faith into you How could you just watch us die?
