What if I'm wrong lyrics

We could wrestle with tomorrow

Till tomorrow's in the past

Because I have torn apart what's beautiful

To prove that nothing lasts

I have stayed locked behind this door

To show there's no way out

I got lost within the space between

The question and the doubt

On an ordinary day

In an ordinary way

I have combed the cracks of virtue

For a place to lay the blame

And I have hated, I have lied

Been guilty and denied

I've dismissed the ones who question me

Declaring I am right

What if I'm wrong

What if I'm wrong

I have built a wall between

What I believe and what is true

I have sacrificed the love I had

For power over you

I have deflected those who disagree

And walked over the weak

I have placed a gun within the mouth

Of those who dare to speak

On an ordinary day

In an ordinary way

I have crushed the minds of children

With extraordinary shame

And I have carried on this war

Though no one wins an endless fight

I have claimed that God is guiding me

And killed to prove I'm right

What if I'm wrong

What if I'm wrong

What if I'm wrong

What if I'm wrong

Is this soul worth saving at all?

Cos' if I lose my wings then surely I must fall

And God'll faint, fall insane

We could wrestle with tomorrow

Till tomorrow's in the past

We could tear apart what's beautiful

To prove that nothing lasts

We could stay locked behind the doors

To show there's no way out

We got lost within the space between

The question and the doubt

What if we're wrong
