You say you live a simple life As if nothing's significant If you just stay inside the pain will never mobilize And when they open up their eyes Watching every nightfall You're wrapped up in the sight of a thousand little white lies And you thought you knew all there was to know Then a spirit wakes to rattle your window So testify Like a prophet with a vision See through the world you're in You testify And tell the modern jury Don't lose the truth again You say that nothing's going on That every lie is normal You said that all along it's nothing that you did wrong But the temple's tearing down again To shake around the shadows Your heart begins to bend with the sound of every amen Then a spirit wakes to rattle your window So testify Like a prophet with a vision See through the world you're in You testify And tell the modern jury Don't lose the truth again There's a rending of the air That always goes unnoticed And fluorescence holds your stare The wind will break your motives When the city's in a slumber It's sailing down the highway You hear a sudden mutter Roaring up a Sunday So testify Like a prophet with a vision See through the world you're in You testify And tell the modern jury Don't lose the truth again
