"We were blind,"
We will say
"We were stripped to the bone and we chose to be clothed
And we chose to be cold"
"We were gold
We turned grey
At our feet fell the world, but we looked to the stars and we prayed
For something more
For something more"
"We were deaf,"
We will say
"All the words of our peers fell like ghosts on deaf ears
While gospels rang"
"We know now,"
We will cry
"We looked elsewhere for love, elsewhere for light
But it was inside us all this time
All this time
All this time
All this time"
This beautiful machine [x12]
"We were dead,"
We will say
"Never living within the bind of our skin,
The touch of our lips"
We will bleed
We will bend
Every naked intent brought to life on the land,
Brought to life by a hand
And nothing more
And nothing more
And nothing more
And nothing more
