Feat from Falling - Die Knocking

I will not accept
That we should be a voice
For the strong
We should be the sound
The weak hears coming

But we're killing their hope
We're killing it slow
So maybe they'll leave and hide
How can we say that we have life
If we watch them die

Send me we said
Send me
To the ends of the earth we'll go
Accepting danger to find the stranger
God show us what we don't know
Let's flee they said
Let's flee
To a place with a better king
Accepting danger to find a saviour
But we've locked the doors
And they die knocking

Why are we afraid to love
What we don't know
Desperation has no waiting line
You don't get to decide

So we look away
But continue to pray
That maybe God saves the day
How can we say that we have life
If we watch them die

Send me we said
Send me
To the ends of the earth we'll go
Accepting danger to find the stranger
God show us what we don't know
Let's flee they said
Let's flee
To a place with a better king
Accepting danger to find a saviour
But we've locked the doors
And they die knocking

My face was burning in their eyes
And you were told a thousand times
And yet you swallowed all the lies
These precious ones you left to die
Their bodies left without a grave
You let the oceans wash away
You were the ones I sent to save
You knew, but looked away
