Where Idols Once Stood Lyrics

Our idols lay in ruins We'd have saved them if we could But we still choose to worship The places where our idols stood
Still believing They can save us I've lived this way Too long to turn back now
Presuppositions set in stone This coffin sealed by my own pride And though it seems the sun will shine I'll draw the shades and stay inside
If we've learned anything at all It's that the ghosts of idols Will do just as well We all see what we want to anyway, anyway
Some things are better left unsaid You know what's at stake Some things are better left unsaid
As long as we keep it in textbooks Then we'll be untouchable, untouchable We hate to lie to children But after all it's all for their own good For their own good
