[Lyric] Act of Faith (Lou Barlow)

[Verse 1]
An act of faith, think of all the things we do
Every day, cradled in an ancient tomb
Or on a highway, headed for a box called home
Where we lie, maybe die alone

[Verse 2]
You'll never be alone
All together, lost in a familiar way
Torn apart, scattered in the same display
Well, there's a lesson, careful of the one you love
Away on board, and when the foundation burns

[Chorus]
Things you want to save
While everything must change
Dead men can't hold you
Or understand your truth
But I can

[Verse 3]
The way it happened is never gonna be explained
But how we try, and we'll try again
[Chorus]
Things you want to save
While everything must change
Dead men can't hold you
Or understand your truth
The things you want to save
While everything must change
Dead men can't hold you
Or understand your truth
But I can
