Till the End

Dead choir 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 (But with feet that follow) Sing me a song so sweet to hear But long since forgotten Grace come my way Dead choir 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 We would all be dead We would all be dead Sing me a song Not with empty words But with feet that follow Awaken a verse Oh grace, come my way Sing me a song Not with empty words But with feet that follow (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 We would all be dead We would all be

I trusted you with my life and you made it my hell I would carve away at your skin To peel back your face Searching for who you used to be If I knew it wasn't a waste I trusted you with my life, and you made it my hell To the cold-blooded deceiver What do you have to say for yourself? To the cold-blooded deceiver I trusted you with my life, and you made it my hell Too white-livered to even offer explanation Betrayer and a thief Too white-livered to even offer explanation You smeared poison in our sheets Lying while lying in a wedding bed You brought this into our home You played your games with my head Deeper, trace the wound across my neck Deeper, I was a promise you never kept I trusted you with my life, and you made it my hell To the cold-blooded deceiver What do you have to say for yourself? To the cold-blooded deceiver I trusted you with my life, and you made it my hell Your skin is a casket Because the man I once knew died Next time you look in a mirror I hope your eyes go blind I hope your eyes go blind Next time you look in a mirror I hope your eyes go blind I hope your eyes go blind

Teach me how to be brave in my last day You grew up in a broken home And your mother said the porch was your bed Manipulating your father into confinement Just so they could cut the hairs from your head They tried to steal your strength and beauty away Forcing betrayal of a man I barely knew Abandoned and thrown between white walls But they could never, they will never break you When they put the gun to your head An angel stood between you and the trigger When they said your breath was worth nothing You made them listen to the voice of a leader Teach me how to be brave in my last day You awoke to empty hands So you worked them to the barest of bones You were found knocked out with blood on the floor But they could never, they will never break you When they put the gun to your head An angel stood between you and the trigger When they said your breath was worth nothing You made them listen to the voice of a leader Teach me how to be brave even in my dying day The truth could never be taken from your lips The shortness of breath, you were clutching your chest The world went black but for only a moment You opened your eyes and they locked to mine Never afraid, you were never broken I see now as you're reaching out You never let a second pass away (Never let a second pass away) Unbreakable reflection of grace Teach me how to be brave in my last day Teach me how to be brave in my last day (Teach me how to be brave in my last day) Teach me how to be brave in my last day

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 (To pierce my heart) But I'll run until my legs go numb Away, away from the dark (Forever west, follow the sunset) 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 Forever, forever (Forever) You'll have to fight through the night You'll have to fight through the night

Oh how I long to see the end of every ending To breathe before my last and begin beginning Would You catch the wind with Your arm? Or lift my oceans with a heave? All hell sound your sirens Hold Your breath for three words conceived: It is finished Walking down the streets I watch You turn Your face from me They ripped the skin from my back dissecting eternity You clothed me in darkness given a rose but wearing the thorns instead My last breath I watch God hang His robes over the sun To hide a child becoming corruption Clean hands Eternity nailed to a tree How tired You must have been Clean hands From a garden to misery Bearing the weight of men Yet You raise Yourself higher to take Your last breath Demons pause with terror I am blood enough to never run dry, still You despise me Sinking the spear in my side when You hung beside me on that day Cursing at the wind will not stop the message I send Clean hands Eternity nailed to a tree How tired You must have been Clean hands From a garden to misery Bearing the weight of men Yet You raise Yourself higher to take Your last breath (Bear witness once and for all) It is finished Would You catch the wind with Your arm Or lift my oceans with a heave? All hell sound Your sirens Hold Your breath for three words conceived

Dead end, prove yourself Yeah Motives lost in translation to nullification You lied your way into fame Scheming and slaying were perks for the taking Stars in your eyes but you were playing a game Hear suspicion proving itself Dead end, jester and faker Before your maker, wish a truce between you two Dead end, take a bow for your act 'Cause the curtain will fall on your neck like a noose (Yeah) Hail Mary's aren't enough Your body's ripe with rust Hearing your scales scraping the ground That disgusting and piercing sound Hear suspicion proving itself Fire Make sure to do your worst Hail Mary's aren't enough because you'll still be cursed Fire Make sure to do your worst I hear suspicion proving itself The curtain will fall on your neck like a noose Fire Hail Mary's aren't enough 'cause you'll still be cursed Fire Make sure to do your worst I hear suspicion proving itself Dead end, jester and faker Before your maker, wish a truce between you two Dead end, the whole crowd will applaud When the curtain falls on your neck like a noose

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 Speak the words tonight, span the void inside Let loose the words you're free, come back, come back to me Speak the words tonight, span the void inside Let loose the words you're free, come back, come back to me Speak the words tonight, span the void inside Let loose the words you're free Seven years without a voice Seven months away from my side Come back, come back to me Seven spirals into the void But it ends now, it ends tonight I won't drag you down anymore 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 you down anymore Speak! I wear my past as the scars on my feet Seven years without a voice Seven months away from my side Seven spirals into the void But it ends now, it ends tonight Seven years without a voice Seven months away from my side Seven spirals into the void But it ends now, it ends tonight

Fate, what mere men define as the end Fate, what I've seen as just the beginning I am more than just a man (more than just a man) I walk in promise as an eternal soul I am not afraid to die I may bleed but my soul is well I may fall but I will live to tell If you should strike me down, I return tenfold I may be dressed in skin but it's only a threshold Oh, I was called the moment that You opened my eyes To bring retribution to those who would steal Your lives I tip the scale of the world (I tip the scale of the world) With the weight of all compassion on my back I tip the scale of the world (I tip the scale of the world) But it’s my burden to bear (burden to bear) If you should strike me down, I return tenfold I may be dressed in skin but it's only a threshold I may bleed but my soul is well I may fall but I will live to tell If you should strike me down I return tenfold I may be dressed in skin but it's only a threshold I tip the scale of the world I am more than just a man I was called the moment that You opened my eyes To bring retribution to those who would steal Your lives

Till the end (end) To those freedom ensnared A dying breed to the true heir Resurrect and testify I was born to live free or die Why consult the grave about the breathing When I feel your heart still beating? It's a counter-intuitive love You are not indentured servants to lust This is not a prayer to be blessed This is a prayer to be broken I do not fear what they fear Till the end, I'm singing From shadows, valley low, we march into the mend Through hollows, I won't stop singing till the end From shadows, valley low, we march into the mend Through hollows, I won't stop singing till the end Speak You were writhing in shackles Tripping on plot holes I can hear your voice begin to shake You were birthing in my dreams Hell's newborn nightmare asleep From shadows, valley low, we march into the mend Through hollows, I won't stop singing till the end From shadows, valley low, we march into the mend Through hollows, I won't stop singing till the end To those freedom ensnared A dying breed to the true heir Resurrect and testify I was born to live free or die Till the end Live free or die Till the end Live free or die Till the end
