It might take a little while, but you'll see sin And you'll see preachers They pray for the hands of God to reach down And try to save us
We should've saved the world, but we never, ever listened Did it anyway, knowing all the repercussions And then
I've seen the pain, the blame Cast down on you Tell me why they did it anyway, did it anyway Burn it all away, burn it all away Say what you want to say Believe what will set you free
It might take a little while But we'll see another world And we'll always talk about The future lost to greed
We could've saved the world, but we never, ever listened Did it anyway, knowing all the repercussions Breathe again
I've seen the pain, the blame Cast down on you Tell me why they did it anyway, did it anyway Burn it all away, burn it all away Say what you want to say Believe what will set you free
How will you be set free? Lord, do you know what my name is? Father, can you open eyes? As we are the sinners before you Searching for truth in our cries Lord, do you know what my name is? Do you? Father, can you see my face? Father, can you see my face? Can you?
I've seen the pain, the blame Cast down on you Say what you want to say I've seen the pain, the blame Cast down on you Believe what will set you free
