Evidence lyrics

Frightened of the shadow on the wall

I think it looks a bit too much like me

Search my life for evidence of truth

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me now?

Terrified my tongue will now betray

All the lies that I'd been taught to say

Searched your eyes for evidence of love

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me now?

Can you hear the child's tears

Whose paradise was taken from his hands

Can you hold him in your arms

And tell him that you'll try to understand

When there's no way in hell you can

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me now?

Afraid to break the silence in the room

Disbelieving faces stare me down

Search the world for evidence of faith

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me now?

Can you hear the child's tears

Whose paradise was taken from his hands

Can you hold him in your arms

And tell him that you'll try to understand

When there's no way in hell you can

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me now?
