Bazan no longer believes Christianity bears witness to the truth. This song shows Bazan trying to figure out how to what bearing witness accurately would mean.
The phrase “bear witness” refers to the ninth of the ten commandments: “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.”
Bearing Witness Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I clung to miracles I have not seen
From ancient autographs I cannot read
Though I've repented I'm still tempted I admit
But it's not what bearing witness is
[Verse 2]
To full of fear and prophecy to see
The revelation right in front of me
So sick and tired of trying to make the pieces fit
Cause it's not what bearing witness is
[Verse 3]
When the gap between
What I hoped would be
And what is makes me weep for my kids
I take a cleansing breath
And make a positive confession
But is that what bearing witness is?
[Verse 4]
Though it may alienate your family
And blur the lines of your identity
Let go of what you know
And honor what exists
Son, that's what bearing witness is
Daughter, that's what bearing witness is
