about

Partially written in and inspired by the side chapels and crypt church at the Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Washington DC.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Somewhere in the murmuring of the priest in the echo hall
And the silence of this chapel where the tiles know it all
I find some solace in the inkling that I know that I am right
That the answer is in the echoes, not in the clearest insight

There's a paper in the usher's hands with the promise to save me
But I'm suspect of the that paper and the power in its plea
'Cause I find my prophets in the air I breath and the whisper of the bees
So I'll never take that paper because I'd rather save the trees

Call me Saint Thomas
Or is that just a funny notion?
Call me Saint Thomas
It could be my motivation
To get me through to the promised land
And not just through the motions
Call me Saint Thomas
And then pray for me

There's a brick above the alter in this crypt where I do hide
And that brick is like all the others but I can't avert my eyes
'Cause inside it is an answer. It holds the saving key
That there's a silence in this epic space and a noise inside of me

Call me Saint Thomas
Or is that just a funny notion?
Call me Saint Thomas
It could be my motivation
To get me through to the promised land
And not just through the motions
Call me Saint Thomas
And then pray for me
