Jars Of Clay lyrics - Good Monsters

album: Good Monsters (2006)
genre:

All the good monsters open their eyes 
To see the wasteland where the home fires rise 
And the people shouting, "Why, why, why" 

Do you know what you are? 
Do you know what you are? 

All the giants wake from their sleep 
And roll outside of safety's keep 
And the pain makes them feel so alive 

Do you know what you are; do you know what you are? 
We are bored of all the things we know 
Do you know what you are; do you know what you are? 

Not all monsters are bad 
But the ones who are good 
Never do what they could, never do what they could 

All the good monsters rattle their chains 
And dance around the open flames 
They make a lot of empty noise 

While all of the bright eyes turn away 
As if there wasn't anything to say 
About the justice and the mystery 

Do you know what you are? 
Do you know what you are? 
We are bored of all the things that we know 
And we are forms of everything we love, we love.. 

If good won't show its ugly face, 
Evil won't you take your place? 
Nothing ever changes, nothing ever changes 
By itself 

We are bored of all the things that we know 
Do you know what you are? 
Because we are so in love with ourselves 

We are forms of all the things we love.
