The wounds on your hand never seem to heal

I thought all I needed was to believe

Here am I, a lifetime away from you?

The blood of christ or the beat of my heart

My love wears forbidden colours

My life believes

Senseless years thunder by

Millions are willing to give their lives for you

Does nothing live on?

Learning to cope with feelings aroused in me

My hands in the soil, buried inside myself

My love wears forbidden colours

My life believes in you once again

I'll go walking in circles

While doubting the very ground beneath me

Trying to show unquestioning faith in everything

Here am I, a lifetime away from you?

The blood of christ, or a change of heart

My love wears forbidden colours

My life believes

My love wears forbidden colours

My life believes in you once again
