[Verse 1]

My life until now

Was asking for easy ways out

Choice to run from choice that scared me

Was always still a cross to carry

I'm waiting for the big event

Waiting for the obvious

End of the story

But even that God won't interpret for me


[Chorus 2]

I may never really count the cost

I always prayed for freedom but now that I'm free I'm lost

It's not that I can't believe

It's that I don't want to grieve

I prayed for enlightenment but wasn't prepared to weep


[Verse 2]

I've waited for God to vindicate me

For a faith that would save me

But Nazarites will lose their hair

Every tеmple curtain tears

The timе has come to decide

How far I'll go without a sign

I can't follow into Jerusalem

Still playing dumb


[Chorus 2]

I may never know that I know

In a dry and thirsty land my plea gets answered with a poem

World is adoration

Silence is saturation

There's freedom out of Egypt

But it's straight into wilderness
