wake

you strike the match - why not be utterly changed by fire?
to sacrifice the shadow and the mist
of a brief life you never much liked -
so if you'd care to come along we're gonna curb all our never-ending,
clever complaining (as who's ever heard of a singer criticized by his song?)
we hunger, but all that we eat brings us little relief,
we don't know quite what else to do,
we have all our beliefs but we don't want our beliefs,
God of peace, we want you.
