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" |

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................ |

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 |

Follow the crowd and love everybody now
'Cause love is the best thing for you now But you changed your mind You let everybody down But down is the best place for you It's easier that way You know it's so wrong Can't embrace it wish sometimes for any other you But you can't erase it And you won't escape it Don't waste your time Your words only confine you To all of the things you've buried now Don't ask them why Their wisdom will leave you blind But blind is the best things for you It's easier I know You know it's so wrong, can't embrace it Wish sometimes for any other you But you can't erase it And you won't escape it How long will you face it 'Til the wait comes crashing down on you But you can't erase it And you won't escape it No you can't erase it And you won't escape it It's so wrong, can't embrace it Wish sometimes for any other you But you can't erase it And you won't escape it How long will you face it 'Til the wait comes crashing down on you And you can't erase it And you won't escape it It's so wrong, can't embrace it Wish sometimes for any other you But you can't erase it And you won't escape it No you can't erase it And you won't erase it |

Open up your box of sunshine
And smile as confetti comes raining down on you You feel a lot like the good guy, but do you know why Everything's so blue Well, love is fire and the coals are barely burning Cold fills the emptiness that fills this empty place I taught you the walk but then you ran away from me And that's not how it's supposed to be I, I, I collide, with love as an elusive state of mind I know there's something else it's supposed to be I, I, I collide with love as an elusive state of mind Something's killing me Tearful confessions have watered down and broken down The chance for unrequited love to finally reach its wall You're waiting for the axe to fall But can't you see it lying on the ground?

But I watched you turn away Your eyes grew colder than winter Love is so intrusive I thought I heard you say And laugh so unconvincingly And famous last words I'm not ready yet I won't be gone a minute Narrow is the road and Too high a price to pay When loneliness is such a sanctuary Empty are the musings And wasted are the days When you say you were only waiting And famous last words I'm not ready yet I won't be gone a minute But I won't forget And famous last words If tomorrow never comes Will I ever know that I was in love? I was in love In love You say you heard every word I watched you turn away You say you were only waiting And famous last words I'm not ready yet I won't be gone a minute But I won't forget And famous last words If tomorrow never comes Will I ever know that I was in love?

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" |

If you put your arms around me, could it change the way I feel.
I guess I let myself believe that the outside might just bleed its way in. Maybe stir the sleeping past lying under glass. Waiting for the kiss that breaks this awful spell. Pull me out of this lonely cell. Close my eyes and hold my heart. Cover me and make me something. Change this something normal into something beautiful. What I get from my reflection isn't what I thought I'd see. Give me reason to believe you'd never keep me incomplete. Will you untie this loss of mine, it easily defines me. Do you see it on my face. That all I can think about is how long I've been waiting to feel you move me. Close my eyes and hold my heart. Cover me and make me something. Change this something normal into something beautiful. Into something beautiful. Into something beautiful. And I'm still fighting for the word to break these chains. And I still pray when I look in your eyes. You'd stare right back down into something beautiful. So close my eyes and hold my heart. Cover me and make me something. Change this something normal into something beautiful.

And have you ever felt the measure of the days that I've spent waiting, pining for you. I can't see the sun for the daylight. I can't feel your breath for the wind. I don't want to step from these shadows, till you're coming back again. I've dammed the emotions to keep my lanterns lit. I'm shaken by this longing coursing through my veins. In my mind I can't make sense of it. I can't see the sun for the daylight. I can't feel your breath for the wind. I get so used to these shadows. Are you coming back again?

Not much for conversation, I still find need to pray.
Sometimes I get tired of walking through these ordinary days. If nothing else I get to see you even if we never speak. The harm of words is sometimes we don't quite know what they really mean. I don't know where, I don't know how. I don't know why, but your love can make these things better. Let me lay down in this field and stare up at the sky. I hope the days and clouds turn into something as they pass us by. Maybe you could settle for a skyline faded blue. I hope that you might settle for this love I have for you. I don't know where, I don't know how. I don't know why, but your love can make these things better. I don't know where, I don't know how. I don't know why, but your love can make these things better.

If that meant that I could count on You To give me everything I never thought to ask You I always thought You knew It was never my intention to question You You never minded calling me a child Well, I guess that's how I acted all the while But You live through every tantrum You see through every lie Though they seem to be more common I just wanted to know why oh why Unforgetful You, unforgetful Unforgetful You, so unforgetful You never minded giving us the stars Then showing us how blind And unaware of You we are You painted me a picture And showed me how to see Though I just won't behold it Unless it pertains to me Unforgetful You, unforgetful Unforgetful You, so unforgetful Unforgetful You, unforgetful Unforgetful You, so unforgetful So unforgetful You... |

from Jars Of Clay - The Eleventh Hour (2002)
All her wants to fill a need.
She wants to save you with her bandages after she makes you bleed. Like a vampire, a parasite. Stretch the neck of her victim, she finds her prey in broad daylight. When you're up, she's down, down, she's up, it whips around. It's the ride the way that she needs it. Whatever she wanted for whatever you need. Speechless and silent while she takes everything. Kryptonite underneath; you used to be her superman, but now you're fading, now you're weak. Never how or why it worked to play the big lie. To dim the truth from causing her wet eyes. Whatever she wanted for whatever you need. Speechless and silent while she takes everything. Yeah, whatever she wanted for whatever you need. Speechless and silent while she takes everything. Everything. Yeah, whatever she wanted for whatever you need. Speechless and silent while she takes everything. While she takes everything. Whatever she wants. It's everything. |

"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 |
