Why do I even think |
|
In a world that has stopped thinking? |
|
Is there any way to know |
|
What is good, what is bad |
|
All the lines are fading |
|
But are they fading? |
|
Or are they being erased? |
|
Or have we all slowly changed? |
|
I can feel the changes. |
|
Don't cry for long, |
|
Our time is coming closer. |
|
I muse within my mind. |
|
How can I take something falling, |
|
And raise it to fly again? |
|
I know I can't, I know I can't, |
|
But I know God can. |
|
So put your life in His hands, |
|
Make Him your obsession. |
|
Let Him take you, break you |
|
Let Him make you |
|
Into more than a man. |
|
Don't cry for long, |
|
Our time is coming closer. |
|
Don't cry for long |
|
Our time is coming closer. |
|
Aren't you sick of how the churches |
|
In America are today? |
|
They just wallow in their traditions |
|
And their old religious ways. |
|
They're so afraid of change |
|
They derange, and water down what they say |
|
So as not to offend the ones who pay the bills |
|
These preachers |
|
They stand with their suits and their ties |
|
And they only wear them |
|
When they're in the public's eyes |
|
Cause they're fake and they know it. |
|
But they don't want you to know |
|
That inside, they're human just like you. |
|
So they stand on their stages |
|
Next to the flower arrangements |
|
That were probably paid for with the missionary's fund. |
|
And we worship them like idols |
|
And we say, "Who needs the bible, |
|
When we have a pastor that always is just so much fun?" |
|
I'm not saying they're all this way |
|
I'm just saying we need to change |
|
Don't cry for long |
|
Our time is coming closer |
|
Fight through the pain of it all |
|
And remember that rising comes after the fall. |
