Lyrics Understanding - Household

Understanding

Shut down
Every thought that wasn’t true
Every lie that wasn’t you
I dive into this book
«But boy, will you heed my words?»
Reflect, rethink, restore
Set me straight, confuse my language
I pray this is not just another day
I pray that you remember, remember
Brick castles and skyscrapers both towering high
Will I take what I’ve read?
Will I let it apply?
And as Babel has fallen, I too am beaten by pride
Will I read with courage to be led by the light?
Freedom flies in those pages
Freedom lies in his face
Freedom flies in those pages
Freedom lies in his face
Reflect, rethink, restore
Set me straight, confuse my language
I pray this is not just another day
I pray that you remember, remember
Listen
This darkness around me brings me down
But the light inside me gives me consistency
«Therefore my dear brothers, stand firm.
Let nothing move you.
Always give yourself fully to the work of the Lord
Cause you know that your labor is not in vain.»
