[00:00.00]These Plastic Halos - Mark Heard
[00:10.61]These plastic halos
[00:13.68]
[00:15.18]They seem so out of place
[00:18.81]
[00:20.27]Behind the mask
[00:21.32]
[00:22.79]Lurks a scarred and fragile face
[00:27.66]
[00:28.79]We lie so spiritually
[00:32.46]
[00:33.76]Familiar smiles
[00:36.50]Displayed
[00:37.16]
[00:37.88]Misleading masquerade
[00:42.79]
[00:46.17]We hide our pain
[00:49.45]
[00:50.71]We try to laugh
[00:53.23]
[00:55.61]Fools to think our tears
[00:58.97]Would provoke holy wrath
[01:03.82]
[01:05.48]In stone gray silence
[01:07.99]
[01:09.89]We do not face our fears
[01:13.59]
[01:14.56]We bite our lips
[01:16.02]
[01:16.84]And we press on with feeble cheer
[01:21.86]
[01:23.38]With hearts of sadness
[01:26.67]
[01:27.88]We say our thankful prayers
[01:31.66]
[01:32.81]Refusing comfort unawares
[01:38.15]
[01:58.82]We hide our pain
[02:01.69]
[02:03.74]Try laugh
[02:06.28]
[02:08.09]Fools to think our tears
[02:10.79]
[02:11.52]Would provoke holy wrath
[02:16.95]
[02:20.15]We learn the protocol
[02:23.08]
[02:24.58]We bare our souls to none
[02:28.05]
[02:29.36]We praise our peers
[02:31.30]
[02:32.05]For the optimism shown
[02:37.22]
[02:38.25]Brave men don't cry we say
[02:41.62]
[02:43.03]As we watch the world turn to dust
[02:46.54]
[02:47.59]The tears of God fall for us
