Forever west, follow the sunset Leave the past in the darkness behind you Forever west, don’t let the sun set Don’t look back, never look back If you should find yourself all alone Remembering the cold the night air brought Its sting like salt biting the knives in our backs We were waiting for a glint of light preceding dawn When the hills bled paint like fire on the horizon Upon a golden canvas sky Forever west, follow the sunset Leave the past in the darkness behind you Forever west, don’t let the sun set Don’t look back, never look back If you should find yourself alone My stars will point you back to me You’ll have to fight through the night for what’s at stake You’ll have to fight through the night until morning breaks Fight through the night The shadows grew as the light fell dim To remind me of my struggle within A contrast sharp enough to pierce my heart But I’ll run until my legs go numb Away, away from the dark Forever west, follow the sunset Leave the past in the darkness behind you Forever west, don’t let the sun set Don’t look back, never look back Forever west Follow the sunset Forever west Forever, forever You’ll have to fight through the night You’ll have to fight through the night

The moment I heard your footsteps shake upon the ground It betrayed every hint of truth that fumbled out your mouth The song you sang moved mountains silenced by fear The unnerving complacency you wash down with your years Dead Choir (Does it help you sleep at night) Dead Choir (To judge those you’ve put out of sight) You’re no man of faith you are incapable of change And you’ve never been awake Sing me a song not with empty words but with feet that follow Sing me a song so sweet to hear but long since forgotten Grace come my way How can you love a god that you cannot see When you hate your fellow man standing in front of me When will you remember that love first made you sing The words that jumped off the pages to comfort suffering Dead Choir (You think you’re serving someone else) Dead Choir (But you’re only fooling yourself) You’re no man of faith you’re a liar and a fake You refuse to ever change Without grace, we would all be dead Without grace, we would all be dead! Without grace, we would all be dead! Without grace, we would all be dead! Without grace, we would all be dead! Without grace, we would all be Sing me a song not with empty words but with feet that follow Sing me a song so sweet to hear but long since forgotten Grace come my way Without grace, we would all be dead! Without grace, we would all be!

I awoke in silence to broken glass Blood stains the floor where I lay in separate halves Trapped inside my mind my head welcomed the ground Cursing in vain but my words offer no sound I am lost in the spiral My shame is stronger than desire for survival An angel pushed me when I was pulling away Despite my best attempts she decided to stay Trapped in the cracks of an empty shell On borrowed time that was spent in hell The sum of all my fears strung out over seven long, long years Drugs traverse my veins and leave me clutching the numb My voice flies away further from my useless tongue I sit quiet and still and hear worms eating the church Maybe I believe them but I’m drunk from drinking my words I am lost in the spiral My shame is stronger than desire for survival An angel pushed me when I was pulling away Despite my best attempts she decided to stay Trapped in the cracks of an empty shell On borrowed time that was spent in hell The sum of all my fears strung out over seven long, long years I am more than dead weight floating adrift But I could never feel it brush my lips You ask me to span the void inside But I believe my borrowed time’s run dry (I won’t drag your down anymore)

When I was sick The blind looked down through their noles to me When I a stranger Had turned back at the foot of your wall between I was naked, faceless, shame became my chains You deserve to let me rot You replaced me with tall trees The privacy that you sought Well I was the cause A book of names But every page is empty A neighborhood lacking other faces I’d rather be left behind You can go to Heaven on your own But wouldn’t it be Hell inside the gates all alone All alone You can go to Heaven on your own But wouldn’t it be Hell inside the gates all alone If God looks like you then I’d rather be left behind Did you depart from me set anchor And walk alone down the narrow sea Stepping to shores piously removed from my incessant floorboard Do you dream your chest could fail? The long awaited last exhale So you might climb Become the vine of sin 24, and a half score away from me How intellectually we shrunk God to fit my needs Slowly it occurs to me amidst this blissful apostasy I'm less ensnared by heresy than the trenches I dug between them and me A book of names But every page is empty A neighborhood lacking other faces I’d rather be left behind You can go to Heaven on your own But wouldn’t it be Hell inside the gates all alone All alone You can go to Heaven on your own But wouldn’t it be Hell inside the gates all alone If God looks like you then I’d rather be left - Amazing Grace How sweet the sound of silence Where you prepare the home Just to lock the doors and Throw the key away You can go to Heaven on your own But wouldn’t it be Hell inside the gates all alone All alone You can go to heaven on your own But wouldn’t it be hell inside the gates all alone If God looks like you then I'd rather be left behind
