Instinct & Faith Designed

lyrics

Let us drink from the river.
Let us eat from the fruit.
Let me inhale my questions:
Answers stolen from birth.

Let’s steal the light from stars
with clumsy hands through nets.
Let’s steal the light from stars:
rearrange their holy set.

Live life, drink water, keep safe our quarter,
and lock your eyes from the sky.
Lock on where your feet lie.
Safe self; safe water: pay coin and quarter.
Our locked eyes from the sky.
Our locked lives: where do they lie?

Let us swallow our saviors.
Let us gnaw on the earth.
Let us choke on the children.
What is all this life worth?

Is it faith that keeps us alive?
Is it life that makes us cry?
Is it faith that feeds the poor?
Is it life that steals and hordes?

Sing secret rivers and be well.
For whatever reason: be well.
