The country is desolate. The city ablaze. Watch it burn! Watch it burn to the ground! Watch it burn to the ground! Delicate hands barely gripping. Tiny fingers wrap the trigger. Condition our young to defend us from dangerous men. This is an age old altercation. Join your hands and let us pray. Fighting with fire to simmer the flames. Where are the wise? Testify! Killing for peace, unite to divide. Save us. Forgive us. Put aside your pride so we can survive. Delicate hands barely gripping. Tiny fingers wrap the trigger. Condition our young to defend us from dangerous men. Rise above the shadows putting forth your hands. God will shield his eyes in spite of all your prayers and he will not hear. Your hands, stained of blood. What have we become from a smoking gun? What have we become? What have we become? Watch it burn! Watch it burn to the ground! Watch it burn to the ground! We're fighting alongside self-destruction. Rise above the shadows putting forth your hands. God will shield his eyes in spite of all your prayers and he will not hear. Your hands, stained of blood. What have we become from a smoking gun? What have we become? Rise above the shadows putting forth your hands. God will shield his eyes in spite of all your prayers Rise above the shadows putting forth your hands. God will shield his eyes in spite of all your prayers There is no sense in your head. (Rise above the shadows putting forth your hands.) Are we lost? Are we condemned?(God will shield his eyes in spite of all your prayers) There is no sense in your head. (Rise above the shadows putting forth your hands.) Are we lost? Are we condemned? (God will shield his eyes in spite of all your prayers)
