The Crux Lyrics

I was driving with the windows down

When a book on evolution

Started flapping in the wind

I pulled over at a Baptist Church

Opened up the back to calm the pages down

There's a mountain in the distance

With a tree up at the top

And a building with a matching cross

They're competing for your attention

In the subtlest of ways

From the billboards to the birdsongs

The war is on

Higher, higher, higher, high

Welcome to the crux, we made it

Welcome to the crux

It's all downhill from here

It's all downhill from here, yeah

Welcome to the crux, we made it

Welcome to the crux

It's all downhill from here

It's all downhill from here, yeah

We're over halfway there

We're over halfway there

We're over halfway there

We're over halfway there

There, there

Walked into the house

But nobody was home

But the television just kept on going

Didn't know it was alone
