What will you do when your foundation falls
Where will you run when your savior dies
Will the world turn around
If it was for fortune and fame

Where will you hide when corrupt come searching
What will happen when it all proves false
When your symbol lays upside down
If you looked up in vain

When the sea comes and it’s not parted
And your ship remains in harbor for repair

Here in this place
Faith is fear
The man with no face
May not be here
Only written by men
Is it so true
That for all the sin
Hell is awaiting you

What will they do when their fall man shows all
Where will they run when you know they lied
Will the prophet’s wars cease
If the money runs dry

Where will they hide when their defense crumbles
What will happen when the books are burned
When man is ready for peace
If angels could never fly

The unsure only feed it now
The greedy only need it now

Here in this place
Faith is fear
The man with no face
May not be here
Faith is fear
Faith is fear

Our scars are the foundation for what we have become

I agree with MM.

A good read, I like your angle on the Bible.

Beautifully written

Where will they hide when their defense crumbles
What will happen when the books are burned
When man is ready for peace
If angels could never fly

Very thought provoking
