Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I saw Stephen
Walking man, alive among the dead
His eyes were like blue sky
But we found out his blood was just as red
[Verse 2]
And everyone knew me
And their eyes were filled with fear
No one sees what I see
Only the seemingly sincere
[Verse 3]
Walking barefoot
He told us how we killed the ones before
He spoke out against us
Said he knew the one we're waiting for
[Verse 4]
And as he lay dying
I did not shed a tear
His eyes flashed like lightning
He was seemingly sincere
[Verse 5]
And I, I don't understand it
How they cannot see what is so clear
'Cause I, I caught him red-handed
But something that he said's still in my ears
I might believe a lie and yet appear
Seemingly sincere
[Verse 6]
They stoned young Stephen
Yes, they kept the holy word
How can those who are unclean
Live among the pure?
[Verse 7]
And my conscience struck me
As it spoke from deep inside
So I kicked back against it
And I held my head up high
[Verse 8]
'Cause I, I don't understand it
How they cannot see what is so clear
Yes, I, I caught him red-handed
But something that he said's still in my ears
I might believe a lie and yet appear
Seemingly sincere
[Verse 9]
I don't understand it
How they cannot see what is so clear
Yeah, I, I got to demand it
But as he faced his death, he had no fear
And somehow it's still ringing in my ears
But people can be dead wrong and yet appear
Seemingly sincere
