We can't be oblivious
|
We are not ignorant
|
|
Blood in our hearts
|
Blood on our hands
|
|
We're human
|
We reason
|
We're breathing
|
Protecting
|
You're living and dying, surviving, we're trying
|
To breathe in safety
|
Come home safely
|
|
Mercy screams its violent love
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
The death of us created for
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
This is where they kiss
|
|
Life, here sacrificed
|
Someone who payed the price
|
Blood in our hearts
|
Blood on our hands
|
We cry out, we're fighting, it's warfare, we're dying
|
Believing we're winning, it's ending, we're singing
|
It's already done
|
We've overcome
|
|
Mercy screams its violent love
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
The death of us created for
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
This is where they kiss
|
|
With a life on the line (the fire..)
|
That consumes or refines (the fire..)
|
To ascend or decline
|
To retreat or to climb
|
Out of sight, out of mind
|
'til attacked from behind
|
Will this fire..
|
Consume or refine?
|
|
Mercy screams its violent love
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
The death of us created for
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
Justice..
|
And mercy
|
This is where they kiss
|
