"Violence & Destruction" lyrics

Young men, it's time to take your stand
It's time to raise your voices
The nations are in an uproar and the kingdoms shake
But when he speaks, the earth melts away
Hold the orphans, help the widows, become the fire
And raise your voices
(I see your curious eyes)

Rise up and speak violence and destruction
Awaken the nerves beneath your skin
Rise up and speak violence and destruction
Open your eyes and let light in

Take refuge and have strength
We have an ever-present help in trouble
So do not fear, though the earth give way
The waters roar and the mountains quake
But do not be afraid
Turn the lights on, raise the windows, and let
Your voice ring through the streets

Now speak violence and destruction
Awaken the nerves beneath your skin
Rise up and speak violence and destruction
Open your eyes and let light in

Let light in
Be still

Oh please cover me light. I don't feel so good
It won't be long until the fires crash like waves against the sky
Rise up and speak
Let life in
