|
We can't be oblivious, |
|
We are not ignorant, |
|
Blood in our hearts, |
|
Blood on our hands, |
|
We're human, we reason, we're breathing, |
|
Protecting the living and dying, surviving, |
|
We're trying to breathe in safety, |
|
Come home safely |
|
Mercy screams its violent love, |
|
Justice and mercy, justice and mercy, |
|
The depth of us created for, |
|
Justice and mercy, justice and mercy, |
|
This is where they kiss |
|
Life here sacrificed, |
|
Someone who paid the price, |
|
Blood in our hearts, |
|
Blood on our hands, |
|
We cry out, we're fighting, it's warfare, we're dying, |
|
Believing we're winning, it's ending, we're singing, |
|
It's already done, we've overcome |
|
Mercy screams its violent love, |
|
Justice and mercy, justice and mercy, |
|
The depth of us created for, |
|
Justice and mercy, justice and mercy, |
|
This is where they kiss |
|
With a life on the line (the fire), |
|
That consumes or refines (the fire), |
|
To ascent or decline, to retreat or to climb, |
|
Out of sight, out of mind 'til attacked from behind, |
|
Will this fire consume or refine? |
|
Mercy screams its violent love, |
|
Justice and mercy, justice and mercy, |
|
The depth of us created for, |
|
Justice and mercy, justice and mercy, |
|
And this is where they kiss |
