They're letting their eyes cross 
 'Cause they don't know 
 They don't know what we know 
 That these lights are only here 
 To lead us in the wrong direction 
 Or to a false impression 
 Impact is up to us 
    And it's all these days 
 That kept us so far away 
 We can break out of this name 
 We could give ourselves meaning 
 We were never sorry for the choices that we've made 
 Not to sing in your name 
 But what is faith?   
 Not in the mood to chase 
 Not after these things will never change 
 A small claim to the stories we've told 
 Who says we're wrong? 
 With waking arms we stood so strong 
 It's inevitable and it's up to us   
 And it's all these days 
 That kept us so far away 
 We can break out of this name 
 We could give ourselves meaning 
 We were never sorry for the choices that we've made 
 Not to sing in your name 
 But what is faith?   
 I hope I'm not the only one 
 With these words sitting on my tongue 
 (I'm not afraid to say this) 
 Only drowning men could see 
 (That's not enough for me)   
 And it's all these days 
 That kept us so far away 
 We can break out of this name 
 We could give ourselves meaning 
 We were never sorry for the choices that we've made 
 Not to sing in your name 
 But what is faith?
