Day after day after day
You live in your misconceptions
Cuz our actions
Don't speak as loud as our words
It hurts, my friend
Can I help you understand?
Can I please help you understand what I see?

It's not bred out of fear
It's sprung out of love
It's what we've been in search of

Now spring clear of all the lies
And sever all the ties
With tangled webs of futile thinking
Now spring clear of all half-truths
Cuz the burden of proof
Doesn't rest on an institution

Yeah I can see all the hurt
And the misery resulting from the fact
That Christians are the biggest
Sinners of them all
But please don't fall
Don't let all those who come in Christ's name fool you
Don't you dare, don't you dare

It's not bred out of pride
A trophy on the shelf
I can't save you
I can't even save myself

Now spring clear of all the lies
And sever all the ties
With tangled webs of futile thinking
Now spring clear of all half-truths
Cuz the burden of proof
Doesn't rest on an institution

Day after day after day
You live in your misconceptions
Cuz our actions
Don't speak as loud as our words
It hurts, my friend
Can I help you understand?
Can I please help you understand what I see?

If we've been on our knees
But our eyes have been closed
To all the pain and suffering
I cry out, "God forgive us!"

Now spring clear of all the lies
And sever all the ties
With tangled webs of futile thinking
Now spring clear of all half-truths
Cuz the burden of proof
Doesn't rest on an institution
