Saints and Sinners

How long have we been calling out The sky is falling now While you have been calling for time To keep rehabbing your houses built on sand And retreat farther inside You wanted to be great again As if way back when Doesn't chill you straight to the bone No, you look back fondly on days still haunting A sure sign you've been turning to stone When silence deafens the rocks cry out And sinners steps in when saints step down How can we tell the difference now Between saints and sinners And saints and sinners And saints and sinners And saints and sinners now How long have we been telling you What they've been selling you Has demanded too high a price A cost we have paid up front in bodies and blood While you have paid with your sight When silence deafens the rocks cry out And sinners steps in when saints step down How can we tell the difference now Between saints and sinners And saints and sinners And saints and sinners And saints and sinners now Sinners and saints and sinners And saints and sinners And saints and sinners now Calling on saints, calling all sinners Calling on saints, calling all sinners Calling on saints, calling all sinners Calling on saints, calling all sinners Calling on saints, all saints and all sinners Oh-oh-oh When silence deafens the rocks cry out And sinners step in when saints step down The difference in where we're headed Is the distance between here and heaven If you're not dying to glimpse it here You're living like we're already there So ask yourself: Is this as it is? And then tell me which is which now
