Sign Lyrics

Party crashers

Raised up crosses

While we forgot to keep the feast

It felt like an epiphany

Of our true allegiances

To say the least

I just know that

We've been here before

Burning incense

To a strongman

And we just don't know when to stop

Without a sign

Of contradiction

Men without chests

Mourned no losses

While they lit up New York City pink

We don't hesitate to say

They love the least of these

What a nice thing to think

I just know that

We've been here before

Offering tribute with our own children

And we just don't know when to stop

Without a sign

Of contradiction

I just know that

We've been here before

And we just don't know when to stop

Without a sign that can

Contradict us

There's no bloodless membership

It's just a question of whose blood it is

And we gather our strength against

Whatever victim seems expedient

And you should know cos

You've been here before

Being opposed from all directions

And we just don't know when to stop

Crucifying what

Contradicts us

You should know cos

You've been here before

We just don't know when to stop

Without a sign that can

Contradict us

And I just know that we've been here before

I cannot get around the fact

Your holy innocence is the only last

Contradiction

That speaks against

And saves us

In the end

Please give us a sign

And contradict us

Cos I know we've been here before

I know we've been here before

And we just don't know when to stop

Without a sign of

Contradiction
