Voices

In the silent hour I can hear them pray to the mother
But the mother doesn't love my soul
In the blackened earth lay my secrets
The hounds of hell know everything

At the moon they howl
I cut away, I get away, I hide away from the light
Still they smell my fear
And they will hunt me like the animal I've been

Cut, cut, cut, cut a hole in the night
The voices of the innocent are coming to life
Cut, cut, cut, cut a hole in the night
The voices of the innocent are coming to life

In a graceless world I was graceless
I'm just a murderer 'cause murder was my only chance
Though I'm wretched and I am not faithless
The ears of God hear everything

And he hears them still
Every cry, every breath in every land that I have slain
Just to save myself
How can God show mercy, I was merciless to them?

Cut, cut, cut, cut a hole in the night
The voices of the innocent are coming to life
Cut, cut, cut, cut a hole in the night
The voices of the innocent are coming to life

Your greatest sin is not the abortion that you've asked forgiveness for
Or the adultery or whatever it is that you did in your life
In the past that you're ashamed of that keeps hounding you

Your greatest sin is not that
Your greatest sin is not believing God's word
When God says you're forgiven, your greatest sin is unbelief

You wanna repent on something friend
Stop repenting on sins you've already repented on
And repent on your unbelief

The voices of the innocent are coming to life
The voices of the innocent are coming to life
