As they move among the crowd
Like a flower in the desert
I got my own spirit level for balance
In the temple and market place
And all the preaching voices
And all the shouting voices
Fools and thieves are well disguised
Against the floods of spring
You can call me faithless
And I believe in love
And that's faith enough for me
Like a forest bows to winter
Fools and thieves are dangerous
You can call me faithless
In the temple and market place
You can call me faithless
I will quietly resist
Empty vessels dream so loud
I still cling to hope
Like a stone in the river
I don't believe in belief
Or the cliffs along the ocean
I will quietly resist
You can call me faithless
I will quietly resist
And that's faith enough for me
And that's faith enough for me
To tell if my choice is leaning up or down
You can call me faithless
I don't believe in belief
I still cling to hope
And that's faith enough for me
I don't have faith in faith
That only blooms at night
Beneath the deep white silence
I will quietly resist
I will quietly resist
And I believe in love
You can call me faithless
In the temple and market place
But I still cling to hope
And I believe in love
I don't believe in belief
And that's faith enough for me
In the temple and market place
Like the willows in the wind
I don't have faith in faith
Try to throw me off my course
And that's faith enough for me
Some by sermon, some by force
I don't have faith in faith
I will quietly resist
