[Deas Vail, Matthew Thiessen - Birds lyrics]
This is our true alarm this is reality
We will do what we can
We are just figurines with a
Theology that we don't understand
We can't forget the beginning
When He set our broken wings
God, how much does it take for us to
Be loved? For us to be saved?
We are all birds stuck inside our cage
Covered up with praise
And behind our saints we hide our face
Oh, the numbers come yeah, they're dialing in
We can't help but to compare ourselves again
I can't believe in this - this blue-lipped
Lifeless kiss we can't see past our thrones
We fight for life within
But our walls are wearing thin
Oh God, where have we gone?
When I'm just one fighting indifference
Does it matter what I say?
God, how much does it take for us to
Be loved? For us to be saved?
We are all birds stuck inside our cage
Covered up with praise
And behind our saints we hide our face
Oh, the numbers come yeah, they're dialing in
We can't help but to compare ourselves again
It's not that there were ever
Bad intentions - it's
More that we forgot where to call home
From important things that we
Don't know to mention
It's the uniform that we put on -
The formula we have for love
(Beautiful intentions, Formula for love)
It's not that there were ever
Bad intentions - it's
More that we forgot where to call home
From important things that we
Don't know to mention
It's the uniform that we put on -
The formula we have for love
We will do what we can
We are just figurines with a
Theology that we don't understand
We can't forget the beginning
When He set our broken wings
God, how much does it take for us to
Be loved? For us to be saved?
We are all birds stuck inside our cage
Covered up with praise
And behind our saints we hide our face
Oh, the numbers come yeah, they're dialing in
We can't help but to compare ourselves again
I can't believe in this - this blue-lipped
Lifeless kiss we can't see past our thrones
We fight for life within
But our walls are wearing thin
Oh God, where have we gone?
When I'm just one fighting indifference
Does it matter what I say?
God, how much does it take for us to
Be loved? For us to be saved?
We are all birds stuck inside our cage
Covered up with praise
And behind our saints we hide our face
Oh, the numbers come yeah, they're dialing in
We can't help but to compare ourselves again
It's not that there were ever
Bad intentions - it's
More that we forgot where to call home
From important things that we
Don't know to mention
It's the uniform that we put on -
The formula we have for love
(Beautiful intentions, Formula for love)
It's not that there were ever
Bad intentions - it's
More that we forgot where to call home
From important things that we
Don't know to mention
It's the uniform that we put on -
The formula we have for love
