"Say It Now" lyrics

Our history is clothed in blood like a red Corvette
It's hard to ignore but easy to wind up dead
Our hands are in the fire like a child who hasn't learned to regret
While we're trying to put a smile on for the cameras inside our head

Say it now, say it now, say it now
I'm on my knees
I'm a faded army
In the sight of my enemies
Oh, say it now, say it now, say it now
I'm on my knees
I can only stand when your outstretched hands
Are holding me

Our attention is the last frontier on the way out west
We should be circling the wagons, but we're beating on our puffed-out chest
In the agony of tracing our steps, we know we've already lost
There's a way in every desert where the children all can find the cross

Say it now, say it now, say it now
I'm on my knees
I'm a faded army
In the sight of my enemies
Oh, say it now, say it now, say it now
I'm on my knees
I can only stand when your outstretched hands
Are holding me

The veil is broken, the battle's won
But the war seems like it's just begun

Say it now, say it now, say it now
I'm on my knees
I'm a faded army
In the sight of my enemies
Oh, say it now, say it now, say it now
I'm on my knees
I can only stand when your outstretched hands
Are holding me
