What if I'm wrong?
Been solid for so long
But now I got this question
And all at once I’m questing
To connect with something real
And trust I'm not alone
Can I do better?
For so long I've felt so strong
But it’s been the empty gesture
Of an overactive mind
That left my soul bombarded
And a quiet mind behind
Can I go beyond?
To trust to silence as to song?
For faith I lack — I see too much
I long for blindness, and for touch
Would I wrestle with the devil
To believe to see the light?
Go past my past perceptions
On fire in the night
To question old beliefs
And do what now feels right?
Will I go beyond?
To trust to silence as to song?
For faith I lack — I see too much
I long for blindness, and for touch
To make me meek as snowy mountains
Rooted deep, not to be moved
I am free from hate cuz I know
God is only love
