Intention and Reality (Are Two Different Things)

[Verse 1]
Lift up the curtain
Lift up the curtain
The show's about to start
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
There's nowhere to depart

[Chorus]
Intention and reality
Are two very different things
Forgiveness and vanity
And the line in between
A plague has come upon our land, our sea
Past this we could not foresee
You shall crawl upon wounded knees
Broken hearts of the deep

[Verse 2]
Call the power
Call the power
Oh, call it down to thee
Call on the name
Call on the name
This opportunity
As the light shines
So can you this night

[Chorus]
But intеntion and reality
Are two wildly differеnt things
Choose now who you serve
Whose face you see
When you kneel down to pray
Is it thee?

[Bridge]
Everybody's a hero in their own tale
Propaganda, a lie we sell our self
Search out in your heart
Ask yourself, in truth
You can lie to me
But are you lying to you?

[Chorus]
Oh, you cannot hide from the light
Exposed, naked, alone in the cold
Oh, you cannot lie to the face of God
The truth of what you are will be told

[Outro]
We cut the mountains down
Shred them to the ground
Our power overflows
Nothing in our way
We seize the day
Set upon our victory's throne
