Last night we were talking
There my heart laid on the street
All bloody as can be
Though I'm sure your words were key
They went straight through my ears 'cause
They sounded like the winter

They began to pierce me
Daggers in my flesh and bone
Such words from a lover
It's all-consuming
Shame you couldn't tell a lie
Now the shame is heaped on me

Our hearts like a river yet we sang like the ocean
So we lift our hands to the lord
We drank from the sea and we learned that
It would be bitter to dip our hands to the stream

The atmosphere hung heavy on my wounded neck
And clung to the window shades
The depth in silence spoke no words distinct to ear
But the soul heard the thunder

The silent screams are hubris the only enemy of
The joys of repentance
There's no clear victor
Darkened light fall on each of us
Oh lord save us

Our hearts like a river yet we sang like the ocean
So we lift our hands to the lord
We drank from the sea and we learned that
It would be bitter to dip our hands to the stream
