lyrics

I walk up the stairs so gingerly
My hair stands up on end / cause I just can’t see
It’s only fear of what’s never shown to me
Why don’t they ever make themselves / known to me?

I believe in the holy ghost
But it doesn’t believe in me
I believe that you are the host
But I just don’t see…

The proof, the proof, the truth, the truth
Like doorknobs turning, bent car keys
Shelves falling without the breeze
The proof, the proof, the truth, the truth

Is it the clouds wrestling with the seas?
Is it the wind blowing /through the leaves
Unpacked boxes are packed again
Is it by tortured souls that / seek revenge?

I believe in the holy ghost
But it doesn’t believe in me
I believe that you are the host
But I just don’t see…

The proof, the proof, the truth, the truth
Like doorknobs turning, bent car keys
Shelves falling without the breeze
The proof, the proof, the truth, the truth
