Where Idols Once Stood

our idols lay in ruins <br>we’d have saved them if we could <br>but we still choose to worship <br>the places where our idols stood <br>still believe <br>they can save us <br>i’ve lived this way too long to turn back now <br>presuppositions set in stone <br>this coffin sealed by my own pride <br>and though it seems the sun will shine <br>ill draw the shades and stay inside <br>if we’ve learned anything at all <br>its that the ghosts of idols will do just as well <br>we all see what we want to anyway (anyway) <br>some things <br>are better left unsaid <br>you know what’s at stake <br>something’s are better left unsaid <br>as long as we can keep it <br>in textbooks, then we’ll be untouchable, untouchable <br>we hate to lie to children <br>but after all its all <br>for their own good
