Lambs Left Behind

[Verse 1] This house was built to hold your name With walls of stone, a towering frame But in its shade,the chill sets deep A different vigil that they keep I opened up my hands to grace And felt thier hands across my face A language, avarice pain and lies That's not your promise, not divine [Chorus] If you're the god of breath and light Why do your lambs attack with knives? I spread my blood upon the door In a desperate hope you'd pass me by [Verse 2] They trade in guilt, and polished stones To weigh the heart and break the bone Their love, conditional and lean A sanitized,machine-made thing They chart the flaw,they name the sin But never let the wounded in... [Chorus] You are the god of breath and light... But your lambs still come with knives... The blood is dry upon the door... Did you mean to pass me by? Did you mean to pass me by? Did you mean to pass me by?
