We listen to the tales and romanticize How we follow the path of the hero
Boast about the day when the rivers overrun How we'll rise to the height of our halo
Listen to the tales as we all rationalize Our way into the arms of the savior Fading all the trials and the tribulations
None of us have actually been there Not like you
The ignorant fibbers in the congregation Gather around spewing sympathy Spare me
None of them could even hold a candle up to you Blinded by choices, hypocrites Won't see
But enough about the collective judas Who could deny you were the one who illuminated Your little piece of the divine
This little light of mine it gives your past unto me I'll let it shine to guide you safely on your way
Your way home
Ohh, what are they gonna do when the lights go down Without you to guide them all to Zion? What are they gonna do when the rivers overrun Other than tremble incessantly?
High as a wave But I'll rise on up off the ground You are the light and the way They'll only read about I only pray heaven knows When to lift you out
10000 days in the fire is long enough You're going home
You're the only one who can hold your head up high Shake your fist at the gates saying 'I have come home now!'
Fetch me the spirit, the son and the father Tell them their pillar of faith has ascended
'It's time now! My time now! Give me my Give me my wings!'
Give me my 'Give me my wings'
You are the light, the way, that they will only read about
Set as I am in my ways and my arrogance Burden of proof tossed upon non-believers You were my witness, my eyes, my evidence Judith Marie, unconditional one
Daylight dims leaving cool flourescence Difficult to see you in this light Please forgive this bold suggestion Should you see your maker's face tonight Look him in the eye Look him in the eye and tell him I never lived a lie, never took a life But surely saved one Hallejullah It's time for you to bring me home
