Dar Williams And A God Descended Lyrics

And A God Descended Lyrics




Step through his trampled wall, the unhinged door betrays it all, That far

within our faith we were all waiting. The broken glass reflects the haze,
it 
shines like endless holy days, Struggling to remember what they're

celebrating. Well a god decscended, And the real time ended. His light was

lifted just above the law, And now we have to live with what we did, with
what 
we saw. Well you mend your clothes and patch your roof and slivers of
God's 
SHATTERED TRUTH Grow tender as the grass in clean swept yards. But a
savior 
came and told us how the truth was all around us now, Abandon house
and field 
and gather up the stards, Well a god descended, And the real time
ended. His 
light was lifted just above the law, And now we have to live with
what we did 
with what we saw. You build your faith with strength and duty,
Build your 
love, but there's a beauty, Well you know the scriptures tell,
There are a few 
shards left in hell, And if we wanted God we had to follow,
follow him down, 
Him down. There were picture
s torn out of their frames
and orgies where we lost our names, Ending all with 
time's real desire.
Well you ask how God can curse you thus, that's not a 
question asked by us,
We burnt our books and beds, we fear we've lost the 
fire. And a God
descended, ANd the real time ended. His light was lifted just 
above the
law, ANd now I have to live with what I did with what I saw.
