[00:00.00]Hosea's Wife - Brooke Fraser
[00:01.47]I just spoke silence with the seeker next to me
[00:06.82]She had a heart with hesitant halting speech
[00:12.26]That turned to mine and asked belligerently
[00:17.65]What do I live for
[00:23.08]I see the scars of searches everywhere I go
[00:28.72]From hearts to wars to literature to radio
[00:34.35]Theres a question like a shame no one will show
[00:39.48]What do I live for
[00:45.17]We are Hoseas wife we are squandering this life
[00:51.05]Using people like ladders and words like knives
[00:56.01]If weve eyes to see if weve ears to hear
[01:00.88]To find it in our hearts and mouths
[01:03.88]The word that saves is near
[01:06.63]Shed that shallow skin they come and live again
[01:11.95]Leave all you were before to believe is to begin
[01:18.46]There is truth in little corners of our lives
[01:23.96]There are hints of it in songs and childrens eyes
[01:29.21]Its familiar like an ancient lullaby
[01:35.04]What do I live for
[01:40.47]We are Hoseas wife we are squandering this life
[01:46.17]Using bodies like money and truth like lies
[01:50.91]If weve eyes to see if weve ears to hear
[01:55.92]To find it in our hearts and mouths
[01:58.93]The word that saves is near
[02:01.74]Shed that shallow skin come and live again
[02:07.06]Leave all you were before to believe is to begin
[02:14.56]We are more than dust
[02:18.48]That means something that means something
[02:25.30]We are more than just
[02:29.44]Blood and emotions inklings and notions
[02:35.56]Atoms on oceans
[02:41.88]We are Hoseas wife we are squandering this life
[02:47.07]Using people like ladders and words like knives
[02:54.58]If weve eyes to see if weve ears to hear
[02:59.52]To find it in our hearts and mouths
[03:02.64]The word that saves is near
[03:05.34]Shed that shallow skin come and live again
[03:10.59]Leave all you were before to believe is to begin
[03:16.35]If weve eyes to see if weve ears to hear
