Ryan Shupe & The Rubberband - 10,000 Lakes lyrics

Ten thousand lakes of oceanless water ten thousand churches to worship the father sometimes I think that I will make I there sometimes I believe, sometimes I don't care ten thousand j**els taken by the thief ten thousand times they shake there head in disbelief see they don't see the future, they don't see the past they're just living life to live in, they're not living life to last so give me eyes to see to perceive, to believe, to imagine the possibility the possibilities ten thousand words spoken by the action ten thousand times they never print the retraction maybe I'll find it, the signs are everywhere maybe if I would I could, but maybe I don't dare ten thousand soldiers circumvent the shore and all the politicians try to reinvent the war and it won't make a difference, it won't matter none because it does no good to speak up when the war's already won so give me eyes to see to perceive, to believe, to imagine the possibility the possibilities ten thousand lakes and all along the beaches lie the truths that lead to what he teaches sometimes I hold it, but it falls from my hand slipping through my fingers, like ten thousand grains of sand so cross my heart and hope to die stick ten thousand needles in my eye see the first is just the worst and all the rest are just the same but eventually it numbs you and you cannot feel the pain so give me eyes to see to perceive, to believe, to imagine the possibility the possibilities
