Introspect by Cathedral (US) Lyrics

When first we touch
Source of all I see
Time arranged this
Dance for me
I'm shaken at first
Am I not really free?
Stepping o'er the waters
The hungry I will feed
But I am safer now
In the hands of God
Than in the fists of man

While people are staring
Tempers are flaring
Sharing the daring
Their fears have unleashed
My platform is falling
The hangmen are calling
With my death they'll all sing
While praising their king
As I walk I feel
So different now
And why are you
All turning away
Leaving me cold
And alone this day
Of all days
And why are you
All turning away

Then he cried
Like no other man
Has cried before
But he knew
That no other man
Has known more

You'll die a fool, my friend!
You've brought us to what end?
What is the word you send?
Once I held truths of life
Forged the steel eased the strife
Earth, wind and sea - my wife

Sweat in my eyes
Facing fears
Casting out lies
Reaching for you
They in my hands
Last their grip
Breaking the ties
Denying you
Child in the dark
Made his mark
Caused my demise
Reaching for you
Many waves of confusion
Visiting my days
Restless as they linger
Binding me astray
