13:15 Lyrics by Heath McNease

Who Knows? Who Cares?

0

I've read an awful lot about you
People say there's a facade around you
They say the fact you never speak
Makes it difficult to just believe
They ask me if I ever doubt
If I ever think I'm better off without
They said they'd rather die alone
Than live believing in a ghost
[Verse 1]
I alway say "Though he slay me, I will trust him"
That's Job 13:15, though it pains me I will love him
My friends say he's gone and I should curse him and die
Another bell tolls and I see another hearse going by
But I ain't inside of it, I don't feel no sense of entitlement
I may not deserve to ask these questions, but I've got em
Why do bad things happen to good people ain't one of em
But when good people suffer how should I look at em?
You see I'm just a man, I wasn't here to see the east cross the land
To join the west and fight together in my sin's last stand
Desperate in its hope to return
It fought a losing battle it could never win, but Job had to learn
You see if I darken your counsel with words without understanding
I know you'll understand, I'm just like every other man on the planet
Quick to speak, quick to wrath, and quick to fly off the handle
When the truth is, there's some answers I can't handle
[Chorus]
Where was I before the sun
Where was I before the rain
When the foundations were laid?
Where was I before the sun
Where was I before the rain
Did you even know my name?
[Bridge]
I had a dream about myself
I floated up above and left me down below
I knew that it was headed north
The product of The Great Divorce
And they asked me why I'd ever doubt
Why the scars in your hands aren't enough for now
While my soul was looking down on me
It smiled reassuringly
[Verse 2]
When the walls around you crumble, 'til the world has no one left
When the dust finally settles while you hold on to regrets
And you're leveled by the truth, that what you got off of your chest
Was a selfish attempt to stop the hand that stills your breath
When the words of Job have ended and the smoke is in your lungs
When "holy" is the only word that rests upon your tongue
You're somewhere in-between the heaven Lazarus has touched
And the flames the rich man can't escape no matter where he runs
[Chorus]
Where was I before the sun
Where was I before the rain
When the foundations were laid?
Where was I before the sun
Where was I before the rain
Did you even know my name?
You give orders to the morning
Orders to the morning
You show the dawn its place
Then you'll show me mine
Then you'll show me mine
The lightning's reporting
The lightning's reporting
It always returns
And now so will I
And now so will I
