Testo Was There Nothing?

Was There Nothing?

Was there nothing but the hush of night?
Had a boat, don't remember where.
Do you flee from what was said and seen?
Truth's not true under the light of lies.
Raise your sword and shield.
Was there more than just the prose of night?
Had a grave, don't remember where.
Beaten down, now I lift up my prayer.
Broken promises have set the snare.
Both sincere and not.

Was there nothing but the blessed night?
Had some gold, don't remember where.
When does faith lift up its head so high?
Oh my Lord, won't you please tell me why?
Faith bestows power.

Was there nothing but the hush of night?
Had a treasure, but I don't know where.
Did you flee from what was said and seen? Yes, the good was not without the bad.
Raise your sword and shield.
Yes, the good was not without the bad.
Raise up your sword and shield.
