Lyrics Means To Believe - Oh, Sleeper

Means To Believe

You’re building a ship with no sails
And settin' out to brave the open seas
You’re standing for your God
By becoming something so far off
Don’t you see the irony?
He gave me a train with no tracks
With no wood to build or burn for steam
Despite all I lack
If I derail he’ll turn his back
Don’t you see the irony?
If the blind can see you
And the lame can meet you
Will the dead embrace you?
If you never gave them the means to believe
And that makes no sense to me
He gave me a voice that speaks out
But paired it with a mind that’s filled with doubt
If I’m to find the sun
I need something more than song to pull me
From this cave of questioning
Give me sand to build a home
And watch all the walls fall on me
I can’t change what I am
Lions always kill the lambs
Don’t you see the irony?
Don’t you see the irony?
Will I embrace you?
Will you ever give me the means to believe?
Answer me, please
