In my life all the strife is getting in the way
And frankly I did not plan on getting hurt today
From Your chair in the clouds benevolent are Your ways
While the beggar bleeds, the children play and everyone wants to know whyIsn't it always the question?
How do You know my condition?You came down to me to know what it's like
To know what it's like to hurt
You came down to me to know what it's like
To know just what it's like to be me, to be usIn the wake of the last decades and centuries past
Who's to blame for this mess and who's gonna take the rap?
We're quick to judge and discard, a God who lets you choose
Whom and what to loveIsn't it always the question?
Do You really know my position?You came down to me to know what it's like
To know what it's like to hurt
You came down to me to know what it's like
To know just what it's like to be me, to be us
To be one with the dust and to be lostYou know what it's like to thirst, to bleed
And You know what it's likeYou came down to me to know what it's like
To know what it's like to hurt
You came down to me to know just what it's like
To know just what it's like toYou came down to me to know just what it's like
To know just what it's like to hurt
You came down to me to know just what it's like
To know just what it's like to be me, to be us
To be lost to be found
