lyrics

Who thought the world could change from one single person?
Who bought the lie that letting go wouldn’t worsen?

It was written life was saved by a cut in the hand
It was foretold light was ruined when the hole expanded

Who thought the moon would bare its face for the living?
Who caught the sun when it fell to Earth unforgiving?

No one blames the ills of man on the walking
You’re only crowned a god when you stop talking
