The future seems no more. The end is near, I'm growing sore. When the body goes limp buried in the floor, I feel for my soul walking out life's door. If only faith was real, there'd be nothing to conceal. This ideal I feel, just has no appeal. Like sand in water, do I disappear. Leaving behind all my loved ones, all those I hold near. Will I leave an impact? An ocean of tears? Or just this statue of flesh left to rot for a million years. I am hiding behind this pillar of skin. Looking out but ignoring the in. In constant fear that the lights stay dimmed, until it's dark and you discover my grim. Bleeding life seems to sink in the Earth. Gives feet to the deep, there is no rebirth. If they discover my pain what would it be worth? So I wish to remain alone, rotting in dirt. These thoughts keep seething. They're boiling in my mind. Afraid there's nothing left but organs inside. I should've done more than feed my pride and sit in this dark shell and hide. BLECK! I am hiding behind this pillar of skin. Looking out but ignoring the in. In constant fear that the lights stay dimmed, until it's dark and you discover my grim. Bleeding life seems to sink in the Earth. Gives feet to the deep, there is no rebirth. If they discover my pain what would it be worth? So I wish to remain alone, rotting in dirt. If you lower me down in the ground, let this soul be unfound. Someone pull the strands of time. Let the forces be unwound. Life is short, I know, but a real long ways to go. Hypnotized when we die. Disastrous, darkened, dimented glow. I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm afraid. This cycle, I feel, is the reason why we're made.

All of this means nothing, tell me what are we living for, as we worship a superficial savior. This world that we live in condones all of my sin. It paints a portrait of acceptance, of a world that puts more worth in possessions then our very own loved ones It seems to be all you see is someone on the street trying to sell you on who you should be. You can never buy beauty and you will never define me Tonight, tonight you're the only reason that my heart still beats, I wish everyone could see. It doesn't matter. It never mattered. Supersede everything I see that isn't you. It doesn't matter it never mattered. You are the one that can save me from myself no one else can save me from this hell. Turn my back to the ones that made me, brainwashed by society. You can have everything in the world but it all means, nothing. We are so near sided we are blinded from the truth. We waste our lives always wanting more. We're always searching for a Superficial Savior Tonight, tonight you're the only reason that my heart still beats, I wish everyone could see. It doesn't matter. It never mattered. Supersede everything I see that isn't you. It doesn't matter it never mattered. You are the one that can save me from myself no one else can save me from this hell

One nation under God Where is God in this nation? No one is safe, our worst fears are yet to come I will embrace the end This nation is decaying from the inside out I realize we live lives of lies Stab out my eyes and rid me of my sight This culture teaches us how to die So we must stand and fight for what is right We are the threat Try and cut me down but you won't You think you're so smart like you know something I don't Well know this I'm sick of the lies Never will I bow to you Never will I die One nation under God Where is God in this nation? This nation is decaying from the inside out I realize we live lives of lies Stab out my eyes and rid me of my sight This culture teaches us how to die But we must stand and fight for what is right You are not safe, your worst fears are yet to come When death rears its ugly head you will rue the day I will embrace the end We are the threat We are the threat

How can you forgive me if I can't forgive myself? I took you for granted and now you're gone How could you take him from me? Father dig my grave... No matter what I go through I could never - never forget you Memories run through my mind Only memories frozen in time I have so much pain things aren't just the same He lived a life of happiness A life filled with love I need you just to keep breathing Who knows what tomorrow will bring Because tomorrow's a broken promise Live my life in regret It was so hard to see you go But in the end there is hope I will never let go Live my life in regret It was so hard to see you go But in the end there is hope I will never forget you You took his life like a thief in the night For all I know you could take mine - With the blink of an eye when you could die I watched the light leave your eyes I will see you again, until then I will cherish these memories You will always have a place in my heart Live my life in regret It was so hard to see you go But in the end there is hope I will never let go Live my life in regret It was so hard to see you go But in the end there is hope I will never forget you I put you in the ground, but I see you in the sky If you could see me now you would be so proud

Before I knew you I was scum of earth, empty and broken from the moment of birth. Without you I am no one. All we are is filthy dust if I were him I wouldn't claim us. We are all dirty thieves, doing what we want when we please. Who will save me from this body of death, a miracle from every breath. Empty and broken body of death I gaze into this void of problems and I see myself begging for help. Once you choose your path there is no turning back. It's everything or nothing - it's now or never staring face to face with forever. Don't choke, swallow your pride - everyone deserves to die. As far as I can tell we should all be burning in hell. Only your grace can save, just and supreme forever sovereign He reigns I gaze into this void of problems and I see myself begging for help. How can we live our lives as if they were our own how could we call this place our home. We are the heirs to the throne

What happened to that heart of fire That burned so bright so everyone can see? A light of truth like a beacon that brings us back to You I lose myself with every sin like a fire dying in the wind I may stumble on Your path but You always get me back on my feet On my feet All I am is a broken promise, don't let me disappoint You again Every sin is another nail in the cross Why do I do this to You? Why do I do this to myself? I don't know if I can follow this path without turning my back I can't set myself free but maybe that isn't how it was meant to be I can't save myself Condemn me to hell if for a moment I believe I can save myself Intentions of righteousness are not my own. Not my own But from Christ alone Every sin is another nail in the cross Why do I do this to You? Why do I do this to myself? I am trying to be a better man - striving to live my life guided by your hand

Approaching the throne - you delivered me from death My eyes from the tears, you gave my heart every breath You took away my regrets, nothing in my hands I bring Simply to the cross I cling You paid my debt and now I'm free You washed my hands clean and now I'm free He put His son in my place, not in vain It's the heart of grace All of the things I don't deserve I have received Creator of heaven and earth, your death is what animates me My name is written on His hands, my name is written on His heart He forged all of my plans from the very start From His love I will never depart I will approach the throne in faith Approaching the throne - you delivered me from death My eyes from the tears, you gave my heart every breath You took away my regrets, nothing in my hands I bring Simply to the cross I cling You paid my debt and now I'm free. And now I'm free He put His son in my place, not in vain It's the heart of grace All of the things I don't deserve I have received Creator of heaven and earth, your death is what animates me I will sing a song of praise, I will glorify your name You put Your son in my place You paid my debt, and now all I know is grace You have given me everything I long to hear You say, "You are forgiven." Hallelujah, Hallelujah Salvation has been won! I am a beggar adopted as a son I long to hear You say, "You are forgiven."

Finally I know the truth, finally I've been renewed I stand on solid ground I know there has to be more to life than what we see I know there's more life than just me I stand on solid grund You save me from my own demise Every scar is a constant remimnder of the former self That empty shell of a man that I once was I am forgiven for what I've done All of my sins are washed away by Your holy son I am not a slave to death I will not become like the rest I am not a slave to death I will not become like the rest I will not sit idly and watch you burn I will not become another burden on this earth Finally I know the truth, finally I've been renewed I stand on solid ground I know there has to be more to life than what we see I know there's more life than just me I stand on solid grund Finally I'm set free I am forgiven, I am a new man I will eagerly wait for the end I'll leave this past life behind me Now finally I'm free!
