Arms nailed down,
are you telling me something? Eyes turned out, are you looking for someone? This is the one thing, The one thing that I know. Blood-stained brow, are you dying for nothing? Flesh and blood, is it so elemental? This is the one thing, The one thing that I know. Blood-stained brow, He wasn't broken for nothing. Arms nailed down, He didn't die for nothing. This is the one thing, The one thing that I know. |

It's not my problem anymore
You see it never really was So you can stop caring as you call it And I'll be fine right here You see that I can play a pretty convincing role So I don't need you, I don't think I need you But you see through my forever lies And you are not believing And I see in your forever eyes That you are forever healing You can't hear what I'm not saying And I can hold out long enough Treading water I keep from sinking 'Cause I'm not one for reaching You see that I can play a pretty convincing role So I don't need you, I don't think I need you But you see through my forever lies And you are not believing And I see in your forever eyes That you are forever healing Deny myself, deny my heart Deny your hand, deny your help And you offer me eternity But why should I buy that? You see that I can play a pretty convincing role So I don't need you, I don't think I need you But you see through my forever lies And you are not believing And I see in your forever eyes That you are forever healing But you see through my forever lies And you are not believing And I see in your forever eyes That you are forever healing |

In open fields of wild flowers,
she breathes the air and flies away She thanks her Jesus for the daises and the roses in no simple language Someday she'll understand the meaning of it all He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens As close a heartbeat or a song on her lips Someday she'll trust Him and learn how to see Him Someday He'll call her and she will come running and fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and she'll pray, "I want to fall in love with You" Sitting silent wearing Sunday best The sermon echoes through the walls A great salvation through it calls to the people who stare into nowhere, and can't feel the chains on their souls He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens As close a heartbeat or a song on our lips Someday we'll trust Him and learn how to see Him Someday He'll call us and we will come running and fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and we'll pray, "I want to fall in love with You" It seems too easy to call you "Savior", Not close enough to call you "God" So as I sit and think of words I can mention to show my devotion "I want to fall in love with You" "my heart beats for You" |

Dear God, surround me as I speak,
The bridges that I walk across are weak Frustrations fill the void that I can't solely bear Dear God, don't let me fall apart, You've held me close to you I have turned away and searched for answers I can't understand Chorus: They say that I can move the mountains And send them falling to the sea They say that I can walk on water If I would follow and believe With faith like a child Sometimes, when I feel miles away And my eyes can't see your face I wonder if I've grown to lose the recklessness I walked in light of you [Chorus] Little girl: "I've got joy like a fountain!" "Be kind one to others" "In Jesus Christ Your son" They say that love can heal the broken They say that hope can make you see They say that faith can find a Savior If you would follow and believe With faith like a child |

Images on the sidewalk speak of dream's decent
Washed away by storms to graves of cynical lament Dirty canvases to call my own Protest limericks carved by the old pay phone In your picture book I'm trying hard to see Turning endless pages of this tragedy Sculpting every move you compose a symphony You plead to everyone, "see the art in me" Broken stained-glass windows, the fragments ramble on Tales of broken souls, an eternity's been won As critics scorn the thoughts and works of mortal man My eyes are drawn to you in awe once again In your picture book I'm trying hard to see Turning endless pages of this tragedy Sculpting every move you compose a symphony You plead to everyone, "see the art in me" |

Don't try to reach me,if I'm already dead
The pain when it grips me, for things that I've done Well I try to make you proud, but for crying out loud Just give me a chance to hide away the Exhaustion takes over, will this someday be over? Chorus: Fearful tears are running down The pain you've laid don't speak a sound Don't take my heart away from me And they think I fell down, again Daddy, don't you love me? Then why do you hit me? Momma don't you love me Then why do you hurt me? Well I try to make you proud, but for crying out loud Just give me a chance to hide away the Exhaustion takes over, will this someday be over? [Chorus] A teardrop falls from up in the heavens Drowning the sorrow of angels on high For the least of the helpless, the hopeless, the loveless Your Jesus, His children, He holds in His eyes He loves you He sees you He knows you protects you He needs you He holds you |

The marionette has your number
Pulling your arms and legs 'til you can't stand on your own Dragging your conscience on the stage and your heart gets rearranged, and you cannot tell your mentor from your Maker Look at the crowds bleeding with laughter Over the way you entertain at beckon call They don't see behind the lights or the painted backgrounds They just like to see you fall And you don't really mind And you're just wasting time And you don't feel anything You're a boy on a string I feel the sadness like Gapetto watching the life that he created run away, Seeing the puppeteer's intrusion and holding the remains of puppets that had rotted away One day the curtain will not open (will not open) And all of the crowds will go away (crowds will go away) Some times those strings will choke you But until that day And you don't really mind And you're just wasting time And you don't feel anything You're a boy on a string Just a boy, just a boy, just a boy... And you don't really mind And you're just wasting time And you don't feel anything You're a boy on a string 'Cause you don't really mind And you're just wasting time You don't feel anything You're a boy on a string Just a boy on a string |

Rain rain on my face It hasn't stopped Raining for days My world is a flood Slowly I become One with the mud Chorus: But if I can't swim after 40 days And my mind is crushed By the crashing waves Lift me up so high That I cannot fall Lift me up Lift me up when I'm falling Lift me up I'm weak and I'm dying Lift me up I need you to hold me Lift me up and keep me from drowning again Down pour on my soul Splashing in the ocean I'm losing control Dark sky all around Can't feel my feet Touching the ground repeat chorus Calm the storms that drench my eyes And dry the streams still flowing Casting down all waves of sin And guilt that overthrow me repeat chorus Lift me up-when I'm falling Lift me up-I'm weak and I'm dying Lift me up-I need you to hold me Lift me up-and keep me from drowning again |

"Worlds Apart"
I am the only one to blame for this Somehow it all ends up the same Soaring on the wings of selfish pride I flew too high and like Icarus I collide With a world I try so hard to leave behind To rid myself of all but love to give and die To turn away and not become Another nail to pierce the skin of one who loves more deeply than the oceans, more abundant than the tears Of a world embracing every heartache Can I be the one to sacrifice Or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow To love you - take my world apart To need you - I am on my knees To love you - take my world apart To need you - broken on my knees All said and done I stand alone Amongst remains of a life I should not own It takes all I am to believe In the mercy that covers me Did you really have to die for me? All I am for all you are Because what I need and what I believe are worlds apart I look beyond the empty cross forgetting what my life has cost and wipe away the crimson stains "dull the nails that still remain" More and more I need you now, I owe you more each passing hour the battle between grace and pride I gave up not so long ago So steal my heart and take the pain and wash the feet and cleanse my pride take the selfish, take the weak, and all the things I cannot hide take the beauty, take my tears the sin-soaked heart and make it yours take my world all apart take it now, take it now and serve the ones that I despise speak the words I can't deny watch the world I used to love fall to dust and thrown away I look beyond the empty cross forgetting what my life has cost so wipe away the crimson stains "dull the nails that still remains" so steal my heart and take the pain take the selfish, take the weak and all the things I cannot hide take the beauty, take my tears take my world apart, take my world apart I pray, I pray, I pray take my world apart |

Blind
Cynical, just your way You play the doubting Thomas Feel the scars and wipe the stains So you fight, and retreat And talk yourself out of believing in any peace that you can't see Blind words you call Blind words will fall You're logical, you can't find any reason to believe in love you are blind Crucify, and deny, pass the blame and burn the mission Till dust remains and wash your hands Blind words you call Blind words will fall................ |
