Babel

	'Cause I know that time has numbered my days
	And I’ll go along with everything you say
	But I’ll ride home laughing, look at me now
	The walls of my town, they come crumbling down
	And my ears hear the call of my unborn sons
	And I know their choices color all I’ve done
	But I’ll explain it all to the watchman’s son,
	I never lived a year better spent in love
	'Cause I know my weakness know my voice,
	so now believe in grace and choice
	And I know perhaps my heart is farce,
	but I’ll be born without a mask
	Like the city that nurtured my greed and my pride,
	I stretch my arms into the sky I cry Babel! Babel! Look at me now
	Then the walls of my town, they come crumbling down
	You ask where will we stand in the winds that will howl,
	As all we see will slip into the cloud
	So come down from your mountain and stand where we’ve been,
	You know our breath is weak and our body thin
	Press my nose up to the glass around your heart
	I should’ve known I was weaker from the start
	You’ll build your walls and I will play my bloody part
	To tear, tear them down
	Well I’m gonna tear, tear them down
	'Cause I know my weakness know my voice,
	but I believe in grace and choice
	And I know perhaps my heart is farce,
	but I’ll be born without a mask

	' Cause I know that time has numbered my days
	And I' ll go along with everything you say
	But I' ll ride home laughing, look at me now
	The walls of my town, they come crumbling down
	And my ears hear the call of my unborn sons
	And I know their choices color all I' ve done
	But I' ll explain it all to the watchman' s son,
	I never lived a year better spent in love
	' Cause I know my weakness know my voice,
	so now believe in grace and choice
	And I know perhaps my heart is farce,
	but I' ll be born without a mask
	Like the city that nurtured my greed and my pride,
	I stretch my arms into the sky I cry Babel! Babel! Look at me now
	Then the walls of my town, they come crumbling down
	You ask where will we stand in the winds that will howl,
	As all we see will slip into the cloud
	So come down from your mountain and stand where we' ve been,
	You know our breath is weak and our body thin
	Press my nose up to the glass around your heart
	I should' ve known I was weaker from the start
	You' ll build your walls and I will play my bloody part
	To tear, tear them down
	Well I' m gonna tear, tear them down
	' Cause I know my weakness know my voice,
	but I believe in grace and choice
	And I know perhaps my heart is farce,
	but I' ll be born without a mask
