This  is our true alarm. This is reality.
We  will do what we can.
We  are just figurines with a theology
that  we don’t understand.
We  can’t forget the
beginning,  when He
set  our broken wings.
God,  how much does it
take  for us to be
loved?  For us to be
saved?  We all are
birds  stuck inside our
cage,  covered up with
praise.  And behind our
saints  we hide our
face.  Oh, the numbers
come.  Yeah, they’re dialing
in.  We can’t
help  but to comp-
are  ourselves again.
I  can’t believe in this—this blue-lipped, lifeless kiss.
And  we can’t see past our thrones.
We  fight for life within, but our walls are wearing thin.
Oh  God, where have we gone?
When  I’m just one fighting in-
difference,  does it
matter  what I say?
God,  how much does it
take  for us to be
loved?  For us to be
saved?  We all are
birds  stuck inside our
cage,  covered up with
praise.  And behind our
saints  we hide our
face.  Oh, the numbers
come.  Yeah, they’re dialing
in.  We can’t
help  but to comp-
are  ourselves again.
It’s  not that there were ever bad
intentions—  it’s
more  that we forgot where to call
home.  From im-
portant  things that we don’t know to
mention,  it’s the
uniform  that we put on—the
formula  we have for
love
Beautiful
intentions
Formula  for
love
Beautiful
intentions
Formula  for

It’s  not that there were ever bad
intentions—  it’s
more  that we forgot where to call
home.  From im-
portant  things that we don’t know to
mention,  it’s the
uniform  that we put on—the
formula  we have for
love
