Our Deliverance
Lyricist:Emily Ann Saliers
Now we can say that nothings lost And only change brings 'round the prophecy Well now it's melting the solid frost Was once a veil on greener landscapes we would see
Beneath my surface the water's heating The steam comes up and out the tears you see me shine For every strange and bitter moment There was never a better time
For every pleasure exacts its pain How you hurt me, how you were good to me Beneath my window a mournful train That makes me smile at my bad poetry
But beneath my surface a song is rising And it may be simple well it hides it's true intent We may be a looking for our deliverance But it has already been sent
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com It's in the nightfall when the light falls And what you've seen isn't there anymore It's in our blind trust, love will find us Just like it has before
They're sending soldiers to distant places X's and O's on someones drawing board Like green and plastic but with human faces And they want to tell you it's a merciful sword
But with all the blood newly dried in the desert Can we not fertilize the land with something else There is no nation by God exempted Lay down your weapons and love your neighbor as yourself
It's in the nightfall when the light falls And what you've seen isn't there anymore It's through our blind trust that love will find us Just like it has before
