lyrics

Cries of the Animals

listen to sounds
that come from the mouths
of the beasts
from days of old
men and women gather round
to see what has been found
in the place where
stories were once told
the cries that break through
they tear you down you do
not understand
what they say to you
your lungs fill with air
the people start to stare
as you start singing

and you sing hallelujah

the crowd all looks around
seeking the source of the sound
of the song that
plagues their mind
and one by one
they raise their arms in the sun
they start to dance
they cant keep still
with arms lifted high
they turn their eyes to the sky
and join in the song

and they sing hallelujah

and they bow down
they put their heads to the ground
not by flesh they’ve been found
but by the sound

and they sing hallelujah

we sing hallelujah
