Secret Pharisee from Zoetic (EP) by Zoetic

You clench your fists in the steepled room
The chords are too simple for your taste
The preacher spoke but didn't speak to you
You'll find perfection in another place

You've heard the message a million times
You’ll say you chose a life of grace
While you keep a mental list
Of the people you'd replace

You have every answer to the
Questions that no one’s asking
But how have you cared along the way?

You say you’ll change the entire world
While you pass the homeless on the street
You say you’ll go where the spirit leads
If you can make two grand per week

You have every criticism
To the lives that you aren’t living
But how have you listened along the way?

Clear your mind before thinking
Check your mouth before speaking
Purge your eyes before pointing
Make room for a heart

Have you ever thought to listen with all sincerity
And see mercy beyond what you’re thinking it should always be
There's a million hurting people
Who won't know the truth they seek
From a secret pharisee
