[Verse]
Did you think that glass foundation you built upon
Wasn't gonna break with you shaking at the knees? Well, I see them
The cracks you kept so hidden beneath your feet
(When the floor be) low you shatters beneath the weight
Of all the weary eyes who've called on you but countless times
Will you answer then or remain mute in your faith?
[Chorus]
And in these visions of heaven we've
Lost sight of ourselves
We've all been blinded by
A promise of light at the end of the tunnel (that may or may not even come)
But but we've lost faith in ourselves
[Post-Chorus]
Father, if you're listening hear me out
I know I'm a sinner just the same, but let's compromise
You've kept to yourself for so long
It's not that I don't believe in you, but I believe in us more
And in the darkest of times, it was man who struck the match
Not light cast by ghosts brightens the land of the living
And in the absence of hope, it was man who broke our backs
No light cast by ghosts illuminates
[Verse]
Did you think that glass foundation you built upon
Wasn't gonna break with you shaking at the knees? Well, I see them
The cracks you kept so hidden beneath your feet
(When the floor be) low you shatters beneath the weight
Of all the weary eyes who've called on you but countless times
Will you answer then or remain mute in your faith?
[Chorus]
And in these visions of heaven we've
Lost sight of ourselves
We've all been blinded by
A promise of light at the end of the tunnel (that may or may not even come)
But but we've lost faith in ourselves
[Outro]
Father, if you're listening, hear me out just for once
Father, if you're listening hear me out just for once
We're all in the same sinking ship
