Indigo Girls - Our Deliverance lyrics
now we can say
 that nothings lost
 and only change
 brings round the prophecy
 well now it's melting
 the solid frost
 was once a veil on greener landscapes
 we would see
 beneath my surface
 the waters heating
 the steam comes up and out the tears
 you see me shine
 for every strange and bitter moment
 there was never a better time 
 for every pleasure
 exacts its pain
 how you hurt me
 how you were good to me
 beneath my window
 a mournful train
 that makes me smile
 at my bad poetry
 but beneath my surface
 a song is rising
 and it may be simple
 well it hides its true intent
 we may be looking for our deliverence
 but it has already been sent 
 it's in the nightfallIndigo Girls - Our Deliverance - http://motolyrics.com/indigo-girls/our-deliverance-lyrics.html
 when the light falls
 and what you've seen
 isn't there anymore
 it's in our blind trust
 love will find us
 just like it has before 
 they're sending soldiers
 to distant places
 x's and o's
 on someones drawing board
 like green and plastic
 but with human faces
 and they want to tell you
 it's a merciful sword
 but with all the blood
 newly dried in the desert
 can we not fertilize the land with something else
 there is no nation
 by god exempted
 lay down your weapons
 and love your neighbor as yourself 
 it's in the nightfall
 when the light falls
 and what you've seen
 isn't there anymore
 it's through our blind trust
 love will find us
 just like it has before
