all Faith in reason, I wasted my life playing dumb Signs and wonders: sea lion caves in the dark Blind faith, God’s grace, nothing else left to impart [Bridge] Do I care if I survive this, bury the

Should I tear my arms out now, I wanna feel your touch [Chorus] Should I tear my eyes out now? Everything I see returns to you somehow Should I tear my heart out now? Everything I feel returns to you somehow
