You Could Find - from Songbook for the Church of the Undammed - copyright 2008 words and music by G.D. Lafontant

Is it your fear of death or your will to live
lets you take that next breath when you wanna give in?
Is it your right to life or livin' right
gets you through the day so you can sleep at night?
Do you do it for you or for humanity?
Would you sacrifice your freedom in your fight to be free?

Would you give up your faith in a heaven above,
if right here on Earth you could find true love?

You looked for paradise but found the paradox
of a parallel world inside a paranoid box.
Well, apparently, you weren't prepared for this -
where is your precious parachute here at the precipice?
Will you bray out loud in desperate prayer
or will you quietly look for a winding stair?

Would you give up your faith in a heaven above,
if right here on Earth you could find true love?

Despite your age, in the spirit of youth,
will you spit in the faces of the spinners of truth?
Will you spiral down with the spillers of blood
or make a stand on the pillars of love?
Will you share your life and spend your time
spreading your word and expanding your mind?

Would you give up your faith in a heaven above,
if right here on Earth you could find true love?

(for Mom)
