Lyrics
HOLY
Words and Music by Mark Griffin and Ric Cabot Podmore
I find it strange, so strange
Every time I contemplate this mystery;
When things change suddenly
And nothing makes any kind of sense to me;
I've heard the words and I know the voice
But I can't read the writing on the wall;
And now I doubt every choice,
Do I really make any difference here at all?
Why do I have to be holy?
When there's no end in sight, no end to the night-
Why does time pass me so slowly?
Tell me, why...
...do I walk the road
Where the dye of disillusion has been cast?
It makes the world appear bitter cold
And righteousness is always fading fast-
Why do I have to be holy?
When there's no end in sight, no end to the night-
Why does time pass me so slowly?
First on the left, then on the right-
Why do I have to try to find an end to this futility?
Why do I have to be...holy?
Why do I have to be holy?
When there's no end in sight, no end to the night-
Why does time pass me so slowly?
First on the left, then on the right-
Why do I have to die to find an end to this futility?
Why do I have to be...holy?
I find it strange, so strange...
