There

In the dark

Theres a child and shes waiting

Lost in the maze of a fait accompli

Is it a crime to be just hesitating

While were pretending that we never see

On a TV mounted on the wall

From this distance I can see it all

And Ive been out here

Watching you

Watching you fall

Is there a trick to the art of not feeling

Safe in our world while anothers child bleeds

Praying that God wont demand a redealing

Of cards we have held and pretend you dont need

On a TV mounted on the wall

From this distance I can see it all

And Ive been out here

Watching you

Watching you fall

Better not think about it

In time well start to doubt it

Christ has risen

Keep him hidden

God forbid he sees

Its not that we lack the vision

Only just a quick decision

Who will blame us

Rules restrain us

Its all in history

So close my eyes and pretend I am sleeping

Avoiding the chance that youll visit my dreams

On a TV mounted on the wall

From this distance I can see it all

And Ive been out here

Watching you fall
