She prayed for peace I prayed for proof But all that came Was silence too I watched her build her crown of glass Said nothing as the sunlight passed It looked too bright to be a lie But every truth she touched would die I've seen the hands that bless and take Turn bread to dust, then call it faith They smile so warm They speak so sweet While burning names beneath their feet And I still hear her voice A quiet choice That never fades I kept my mouth Behind my fear The quiet man No one can hear Maybe silence is my sin Maybe I just fit right in Every saint begins to fade When mercy turns to trade Maybe silence is my sin Maybe I let her win All her love was just parade And I forgot to walk away
