And you're no longer facing the crowd,
Will you stand in the darkness behind the thick velvet
And wait for the noise to die down,
Looking around as the silence gets loud
Realizing the show's finally over—
Brother, welcome to life being sober.
For it's about time—
That I see when I'm down on my physical knees
I'm a Saint on my spiritual feet.
And though the desert has never been so bitter as now,
The River of Life is so sweet
And it's about time...
It's the job at the station that keeps him,
It's the lie that she doesn't want to face,
It's the arguments, fear, and the lion at bay
That is keeping them from getting to grace,
So the curtain is closing up a little more space
And they realize that it's almost over—
Dear, welcome to a life being sober.
But now it's about time—
That they see when they're down on their physical knees
They are Saints on their spiritual feet,
Though the desert has never been so bitter as now
They're gonna find the River so sweet,
And it's about time...
To stop faking, stop trying,
Dear it's time, you can't buy it,
You're lying and it's out of your hands.
Cut the act, stop the script,
Don't you play unequipped,
You're no seller, so follow the Plan—
Because you know when you're down on your physical knees
You're a Saint on your spiritual feet,
And it's only when you've pushed the world far away
That the flesh and Perfection can meet...
