Good God, if Your song leaves our lips
If Your work leaves our hands
Then we will be wanderers and vagabonds
They will stare and say how empty we are
How the freedom we had turned us up as dead men

Let us be cold, make us weak
Let us because we all have ears
Let us because we all have eyes
Good God

How they knew that this would happen?
They knew, they knew that this would
How they knew that this would happen?
They knew, they knew that this would
(We're so run down) How they knew that this would happen?
They knew, they knew that this would
(We're so run down) How they knew that this would happen?
They knew, they knew that this would

Good God, can You still get us home?
Good God, can You still get us home?
Good God, can You still get us home?
Good God, can You still get us home?
Good God, can You still get us home?
Good God, can You still get us home?
Good God, can You still get us home?
Good God, can You still get us home?

Still get us home
How can we still get home?
How can we still get home?
(I'm not dreaming) How can we still get home?
How can we still get home?
We're forgetting our forgiveness (We're forgetting our forgiveness)
We're forgetting our forgiveness (We're forgetting our forgiveness)

    Drummer Aaron Gillespie explained this song to Punkbands.com: "I wrote those lyrics on a plane on my phone. I think in our band we know what our purpose is here and we know why we're here but it's hard to not take advantage of that sometimes and, you know, I'm in a band and it's easy sometimes but it's just a cry to God. Like, is it too late for you to help us out and help us realize that what we have is special?"
