Birth Pains Lyrics & Tabs by Harp & Lyre
Birth Pains
guitar chords lyrics
Here we sit
Amongst the idols of the dead forest
Just like the first tribe
Hiding shame with the skin of another (Gen. 3: 21)
Cloaked just to...
...Feel disguised
As we raise up gods amidst our fall
We relish in the works of our own hands
This life is mine, this age is ours
We contest, simply defiant and so simply wrong
Yet we hold to the pains of our birth (Gen. 3: 16)
Oh, Beggars, Liars, Thieves we are!
We are nothing more without blood,
Welcome to humanity
Welcome to the fall
We are nothing more without blood,
Welcome to humanity
Welcome to the fall
Welcome to life...
...where you breathe in. Your breath is released like the wind,
sending life to the veins of a...
... dying giant.
A fallen tribe,
Found wounded in the valley of dry bones...
... there's a ghost resurrecting the hope for the human race.
And He's building an unseen empire
Made up of cowards and traitors, murderers and the weak
We've been pressed so hard and been found faultless
This is redemption
This is where life as you know it ends
Here's where we come to conclusion.
Only to question," Does it serve me to press on?"
Here's where we come to confusion.
And here we understand.
Here we sit.
