Hungry for Silence (God's Patience)

You ate your dinner
Hungry for silence
Listen for quiet
and sing when it’s violent
You drank a bottle
of all god’s patience
Clear as a window
but shut like a curtain
Partial to reason
when faith wasn’t working
Read like the bible
but still as uncertain
Have we been hanging on too long?
Will our children hear this song?
I know it won’t take long
for me to find you
You paint the sistine
and pray all night long
You taste like gasoline
and sing out every psalm
Have we been hanging on too long?
Will our children hear this song?
I know it won’t take long
for me to find you
