Thrice - Where Idols Once Stood Lyrics

Where Idols lay in ruins 
we’d have saved them if we could 
but we still choose to worship 
the places where our idols stood. 

still believing 
they can save us, 
I’ve lived this way too long to turn back now 

Presuppositions set in stone 
this coffin sealed by my own pride, 
and though it seems the sun will shine, 
ill draw the shades and stay inside. 

if we’ve learned anything at all, 
its that the ghosts of idols will do just as well 
we all see what we want to anyway (screams ’anyway’) 

some things 
are better left unsaid. 
you know what’s at stake 
something’s are better left unsaid 
as long as we keep it 
in textbooks, then well be untouchable, untouchable 
we hate to lie to children, 
but after all its all 
for their own good.
