00:00:04,700 --> 00:00:07,800
Before the first shadow touched our
hearts, there was only light
2
00:00:08,700 --> 00:00:15,500
I'm not just talking about the sunlight
that would filter through the canopy
like liquid gold, warm on my skin
3
00:00:15,900 --> 00:00:23,900
I'm talkin' about life, the air
itself tasted sweet, like honey
in rain, everything hummed
4
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:28,200
The Garden wasn't just a place
we lived, it breathed with us
5
00:00:29,100 --> 00:00:33,800
There was no fear here, fear hadn't
even been invented yet (Oh)
6
00:00:34,300 --> 00:00:42,200
A lion, this massive, beautiful
creature, would lеan his
heavy head into my touch
7
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:49,300
Everything was connеcted, everything
was exactly as it
was meant to be (Ooh)
8
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:58,800
And Eve, when I look at her, I finally
understand what God meant
when He said, "Very good" (Oh)
9
00:00:58,900 --> 00:01:06,400
And then, there's Him, it's the cool
of the day, that's when He comes
10
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,600
You always know when He's near
11
00:01:09,700 --> 00:01:14,400
The air, it changes, expected
(Oh, oh, oh)
12
00:01:14,500 --> 00:01:18,200
Like the atmosphere itself
is leaning in to listen
13
00:01:18,300 --> 00:01:25,200
We hear the sound first, not
heavy footsteps, but a shifting
of the atmosphere
14
00:01:25,300 --> 00:01:28,300
A weight of goodness moving
through the trees
15
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,000
And we run, we run toward
the sound (Oh, oh, oh)
16
00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:35,600
His voice, it isn't just sound
17
00:01:35,700 --> 00:01:37,700
It's the foundation of everything
18
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:43,600
When He speaks it's warm, resonant,
it vibrates in my chest (Oh, why?)
19
00:01:43,700 --> 00:01:49,400
They talk about the colors of the
water, why the monkeys chatter
so much, what it means to be us
20
00:01:49,500 --> 00:01:56,300
There's no gap between us, no hesitation,
no hiding, it's complete
21
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:02,800
It's a feast, right? Everywhere
you look, taste the
explosion in your mouth
22
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:12,000
We're completely free, except in
the very center, the tree of knowledge
of good and evil (Ooh)
23
00:02:12,100 --> 00:02:15,500
It's the only boundary line
in the world without walls
24
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:20,500
God is very clear, "Don't touch
it, the day you eat it,
you die" (Oh, oh, oh)
25
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:26,100
Die? The word just hangs in
the air, it means nothing
to us (Ooh, oh, oh)
26
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,300
We trust it, of course, we do
27
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:34,600
But I find myself near it more
often than I admit, it's
stunning (Ooh, oh, oh)
28
00:02:34,700 --> 00:02:41,400
The fruit looks different, it doesn't
just look delicious, it looks wise
29
00:02:41,500 --> 00:02:50,200
Eve, one day, I'm by the tree,
and there's this voice,
smooth like polished stone
30
00:02:50,300 --> 00:02:56,300
It belongs to the serpent,
the most clever, the most
beautiful of them all
31
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:01,100
He doesn't shout, he doesn't threaten,
he just asks a question
32
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,900
"Did God really say you can't
eat from any tree?"
33
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,200
It's a simple question, but it shifts
the entire world on its axis
34
00:03:11,300 --> 00:03:16,600
Suddenly, the God who gave us everything
sounds restrictive (Ooh, oh)
35
00:03:16,700 --> 00:03:19,600
The serpent tells me, "I
won't die" (Ooh, oh)
36
00:03:19,700 --> 00:03:24,000
Tells me "My eyes will be opened,"
that "I'll be like God" (Ooh, oh)
37
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:31,500
That's the lure, it's not rebellion,
it's ascension, it's the
promise of more (Ooh, oh)
38
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,900
He makes it sound like God
is holding out on us
39
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:41,400
The fruit is heavy in my hand, its
skin is smooth, cool to the touch
40
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:47,100
The tension is unbearable, I bite
41
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:52,900
The taste isn't just sweet or bitter,
it tastes like everything at once
42
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:59,700
The world tilts, she brings it to me,
her eyes are wild (And it's wild)
43
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,500
My gut screams that, "This is wrong"
44
00:04:03,900 --> 00:04:07,600
My parter, my reflection, she
is still standing (Oh my)
45
00:04:07,700 --> 00:04:12,900
I trust her more than I trust the
voice of God, I eat (Oh my)
46
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,000
And instantly, the light
fractures (Oh my God)
47
00:04:16,100 --> 00:04:19,900
It's like a mirror, shattering
inside my soul
48
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:24,800
The air turns cold (Oh my God),
I look at Eve, she looks at me
49
00:04:24,900 --> 00:04:28,500
And for the first time, I mean
really, for the first time
50
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:34,500
I see we are exposed, vulnerable,
naked (And I said, "Oh my God")
51
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,400
This is shame, we scrambled, panicked
(I said, "Oh my God")
52
00:04:38,500 --> 00:04:42,500
We grabbed these big, rough, fig
leaves, stichin' them together
(I said, "Oh my God")
53
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,900
They scratched my skin, they covered
nothing (I said, "Oh my God")
54
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,700
And then we hear it, His footsteps
55
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,200
The sound that used to mean
love, that used to mean safety
(Oh my, Oh my God)
56
00:04:52,300 --> 00:04:55,500
Now means dread, absolute
dread (Oh my God)
57
00:04:55,600 --> 00:05:00,800
We run, we hide in the thickest,
darkest brush we could find (Oh
my God), holding our breath
58
00:05:00,900 --> 00:05:11,700
And then His voice, it's not angry,
not shouting, it's worse, it's
heartbroken, "Where are you?"
59
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,100
He knows exactly where
we are physically
60
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,600
He's asking where we've
gone relationally
61
00:05:18,700 --> 00:05:21,900
Where we stand, trembling,
covered in itchy leaves
62
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:27,400
The question comes, gentle, but
firm, "What have you done? Did
you eat the fruit?" (Oh I)
63
00:05:27,500 --> 00:05:31,200
Is this where the fracture deepens?
The break spreads? (Ooh)
64
00:05:31,300 --> 00:05:33,500
I look a...........
