Written by Matt LeFevers. Copyright 2013.

lyrics

There is a ghost in the machine. There is an ‘I’ behind my eyes. If soul and substance are the same, then there’s no truth, and no one’s right. We all take everything on faith, so let’s be honest with ourselves. The earth will swallow our mistakes. The dust will grow over our doubt.

And we are no one’s keepers, you and I... the truth is we can barely keep ourselves in line. We may be broken but keep watch and hold out hope. Past the horizon line there dawns a distant light.

There is a fear we cannot name between the words of whispered prayers, yet from the moment we are made we close our eyes and shield our ears. There is a ghost in the machine. There is a love inside your eyes. The earth will swallow our mistakes but what we are will never die.
