lyrics

"Make Water Sand" lyrics co-written by Lance Higdon and Jeff Price (Last stanza).

Take coiled snares and change their shape
Take corpses’ shrouds and make them drapes
Throw your staffs and pick up snakes
Make the scoundrel stand

Let water drop and rust the cage
Bend common sense and build a maze
Breathe in the Gospel and spit out the phrase
Let my decision stand

Loot the relics and market them
Betray the witness and martyr him
Strip mine the sacred and remodel then
Make water sand

Wherefore no sorrowful passion
How come no loving look
Instead you offer inconstant fashion
And squandered sentences from simple books

We're written in the margins of your spaces
Afterthoughts about those hidden places
Between indulgences and screeds

Our arms are extended
With both hands open
Still we're strangers in all the worlds we've chosen
Though we shouldn't weep, it fills and need

[Lance Higdon's Latin part]

Ipsum deum manifesto in lumine vidi
Intrantem muros vocemque his auribus hausi
Desine meque tuis incendere teque querelis;
Non sponte sequor

[Next two parts spoken-sung simultaneously]

[Lance Higdon's part]
To you we show our varied strands
Wound together in charity
However uneasily
Forgive us, but we love them better
Than your ropes of sand

[Jeff Price's part]
Take a look inside
Take a look inside
Take a look inside
And what do you see
Take a look inside
And what do you see
Take my advise
Put your shoulders down
Take my advise
Put your shoulders down
