I stopped in the church to pray It was the middle of the day And I don't even know if I believe in God But I laid my soul on the table And left that place believing I was able to pull back the curtain my old fears had drawn           I was out on the fourth of July when I saw those kids I just had to cry The whole town was blazing in the summers heat But out in front of a row of run down shacks they had that fire hydrant uncapped Baptizing their bodies right there in the street       There's a tree outside my window  It sings when wind blows  I have got water and fire I know sorrow I feel desire And could it be that the kingdom has already come             We all see good and bad in everything that we have  But life is waiting just behind that veil if this will be loved and that will be hated The soul is left to struggle segregated Trapped in the harbor too weighted down to sail       There's a tree outside my window It sings when wind blows I've got water and fire I know sorrow I feel desire Could it be that the kingdom has already come    Could it be that the kingdom has already come
