Out in some galaxy Some dark and diamond sea
Beyond this gravity A rich tableau
Christ came, or so they say Some swear he's here to stay
They ride the rails 'til judgement day While me - I just don't know
And some to mortal risk inclined Chains of silence to unbind
Their faith will fail if ever blind To wage a holy war
Who seeks the anguish and the strife?
Who seeks to tear the limb from life?
Who seeks the roads with soldiers rife?
So often seen before
Now the calm is o'er the bay You have to watch just what you say
The sound will carry far away The stillness is the lure
But when the lonely voice is lost When the greater good is crossed
When the cause exceeds the cost You cannot be so sure
Come then, you gods, yes, Christ also Who deal each other constant blows
Down the street your lifeblood flows You cannot be so strong
Upon your altars, high and grand Sacrifice your hidden hand
And say, for once, just where you stand And where the blame belongs
