can youhear the voices
giving all the choices
writing scriptures of tomorrow
drawing pictures filled with sorrow

will there be denial
when we face the trail

shattered prophecy on the rock of ages
shattered prophecy now you're learning by turning away

using more than wisdom
could you make us listen
drivin' into absolution
waiting for a contribution

shattered prophecy on the rock of ages
shattered prophecy going through the stages
broken dignity like a falling angel
shattered prophecy now you're learning by searching turning the pages of life

will there be denial
as we face the trail
do you hear voices?
distant, long gone noises
into absolution
for the contribution
shaping new confusion
