and to love: a god
and to fear: a flame
and to burn a crown that has a name
and to right or wrong
and to meek or strong
it is known, just scream it from the wall
i've willed, i've walked, i've read
i've talked, i know, i know,
i've been here before
hey, now we won't be reaped
hey, now we won't be scarred like that
it's the sun that burns
it's the wheel that turns
it's the way we sing that makes 'em dream
and to christ: a cross
and to me: a chair
i will sit and earn the ransom
from up here
i've willed, i've walked, i've read
i've talked, i know, i know,
i've been here before
hey, now we won't be reaped
hey, now we won't be scarred like that
hey, now we won't be reaped
hey, now we won't be scarred like that
scarred like that
and to love: a god
and to fear: a flame
and to burn a love that has a name
i've willed, i've walked, i've read
i've talked, i know, i know,
i've been here before
hey, now we won't be reaped
hey, now we won't be scarred like that
hey, now we won't be reaped
hey, now we won't be scarred like that
