"I'm Only Laughing On The Outside" Lyrics

To see elation
Spread across your timeless face
Be proud of me
Proud of what I tried to become
Regardless of our heavy hearts
[Regardless of our heavy hearts]
We'll carry on
[We'll carry on]
Regardless of our anxious thoughts
[Regardless of our anxious thoughts]
On how we think it might all end
[On how we think it might all end]

The land is dead
Our backs are bent
Our eyes have turned from gray to red
[Our eyes have turned from gray to red]
Still the villages are crying out
What do they have to sing about
[What do they have to sing about]

Hey! Hey!
Are you gonna be with me
I can hear them singing through the night
Hey!
Don't be dancing with the devil
Oh no!
In the pale moonlight

I can see the towns from way up here
The little lights are burning brightly
And getting stronger
The children singing made up songs
But they sound so familiar
The son's so familiar

Hey! Hey!
Are you gonna be with me
I can hear them singing through the night
Hey!
Don't be dancing with the devil
Oh no!
In the pale moonlight

How long must we wait
How great thou art
How long must we wait
How great thou art
How long must we wait

[We've been looking for connection
Can we all break free from this]

The situation the undercurrent
Stop pulling me further and further away
God will not be called dead
He will show himself strong
In due time
God will not be called dead
He will show himself strong
In due time

How long must we wait
How great thou art
How long must we wait
How great thou art
How long must we wait...
