The Opportunity to Be

This life won't be another failed attempt, a life wasted This won't be left to chance I've found, a message, a meaning This is something to stand for Faith is the message, the meaning, the answer As we live together, we fall too hard, forgetting our actions have consequences Watching our lives passing by as we look to our neighbors For guidance There is no greater truth, no finer example of the truth He is our anchor I cannot stand alone but maybe i can make a difference in this world Will you make a difference? Can you just stand by and watch this happen?

(Cast off these crutches and leave behind it all.) These diseases, will tear us apart one by one It seems this storm will never pass It feels like this will never pass These conditions we embrace will start the engines of decay Cast off these crutches and leave behind it all The clock is ticking now We watch as time passes by I can't believe we didn't see this coming The pace is quickening This fight will swallow us alive Can we all stand by as all these years rot away? I feel shame in the wasted potential How can we turn away? We never learn How long will this take? Now embrace the end If only we did not desert him

Where has all of your time been spent, been wasted if you don't know the reason? If only we could look past the surface to end the cycle spinning over and over If only we would look to our maker, we would all be closer to him We cannot relieve this strain, this tension, of unbearable routine Why don't i ever feel complete when I know its all privilege? We have no rights We have nothing Are you listening? Do you understand? Are you listening? I am talking to you

In times of need we seem to find ourselves alone Maybe the day will come when the ground that we stand upon is gone Then you'd finally see exactly how it feels to lose everything we had I can't believe I ever bore your burden for so long Everything that I went through for you I can't believe I ever cared But now i'm moving on cause everything we thought we had is gone (I bet you thought) This dream would never come to an end I've stripped away all the lies, and now I'm removing the dead branches Day by day I failed to see the truth It seems that I created the problem Don't even apologize, the word sorry means nothing in your mouth Don't even apologize, because your words mean nothing to me now All that you'll ever be is a pathetic excuse, and I won't waste a moment missing you

Some things are better left unsaid This is the sound of silence You should learn to shut your mouth This is where you walked away The trust we once had only goes so far Where have your decisions left you? There are no excuses You should have known Was it all worth it? Take a look around Take a look at yourself You can only run from yourself for so long Maybe one day you'll change Maybe one day you'll find the truth because I promise you'll find nothing but regret from me Tell me, how do the lies taste in your mouth when you speak? And how does it feel when they crumble beneath your feet? Are you ashamed to know that we will go on without you You walked away from this, and now that you're gone we'll be better off Your selfishness has left you with nothing

Every day is a new day, an opportunity to love like never before Open up your mind and see that we are surrounded by perfection Take a second, close your eyes, and think about who you truly are Disregard all your flaws and prepare for conclusion We are all ungrateful, complaining to ourselves We crawl out from beneath insecurity I hate this process Realize, take a second What is it that you live for? The truth will collide into your mind's vacant memory What is it that you live for? Trace back these lines Collecting light from the furthest corners shows the darkness inside us all (Caleb): One day our potential will sink, collecting like dust on the ocean floor. (end) Its leading us in circles Its leading us in endless circles Abandon fear and bathe in love

You've chosen your path But when you look back Your empty trail won't be there to guide you Just open your eyes And see what you've left behind All that's left inside you Turn around, there's nothing left to see There's nothing left for you and me Go on your shallow ways Turn around, there's nothing left to see There's nothing left for you or me You chose this so go You chose this so go You chose this so go You can't hold back the lies There's no sign of slowing down Your lies they can't hold water You're flooding this town I can't hold back my eyes Watching you lay on the ground I can't believe the lies That flooded this whole town Turn around, there's nothing left to see There's nothing left for you and me Go on your shallow ways Turn around, there's nothing left to see There's nothing left for you or me You chose this so go Turn around, there's nothing left to see There's nothing left for you and me Go on your shallow ways Turn around, there's nothing left to see There's nothing left for you or me You chose this so go You chose this so go You chose this so go
