The wounds on your hands never seem to heal 
I thought all I needed was to believe 

Here am I, a lifetime away from you 
The blood of Christ, or the beat of my heart 
My love wears forbidden colours 
My life believes 

Senseless years thunder by 
Millions are willing to give their lives for you 
Does nothing live on? 

Learning to cope with feelings aroused in me 
My hands in the soil, buried inside of myself 
My love wears forbidden colours 
My life believes in you once again 

I'll go walking in circles 
While doubting the very ground beneath me 
Trying to show unquestioning faith in everything 
Here am I, a lifetime away from you 
The blood of Christ, or a change of heart 

My love wears forbidden colours 
My life believes 
My love wears forbidden colours 
My life believes in you once again
