I've been searching high and low, but we fade into nothing When we go up in the smoke We'll thank God for a mercy that he knows we'll never show On our canvas we stain with blood and paint it with our sins There's a candle melting and it's burning at both ends We'll take a take to his gaze and drown to *** no accidents Like a rock to a flame you never should have *** lit You can get strikes out of blood, but you can't force them to see You can take us back in time, but it wouldn't change a thing If God came down from his kingdom, he came down from his home If we asked him if he'd take us back, he would surely tell us no If God came down from his kingdom, he came down from his throne If we asked him if he'd take us back, he would tell us we can't go So we're at an amazing end, this is where the start begins But if we made it out, I know that we would do it all again We lived and died and made my treasure on a sinking ship All in the name of a God we just abandoned and forget If God came down from his kingdom, he came down from his home If we asked him if he'd take us back, he would surely tell us no If God came down from his kingdom, he came down from his throne If we asked him if he'd take us back, he would tell us we can't go We're dying every day, tell me is it all in vain Is it worth the suffering, is it worth the price we pay Is it worth it We can't start to look right, but you can't force them to see You can take us back in time, but it wouldn't change a thing If God came down from his kingdom, he came down from his home If we asked him if he'd take us back, he would surely tell us no If God came down from his kingdom, he came down from his throne If we asked him if he'd take us back, he would tell us we can't go Blinded by a fear of failing, these are the games we chose Lost and looking for the meaning, I've been searching high and low When we fade into nothing, when we grow up into small Thank God for a mercy that he knows we never show You can give sight to the blind, but you can't force them to see You can take us back in time, but it wouldn't change a *** thing If God came down from his kingdom, he came down from his home
