Not The Same

My path has not been shown
It lies in shadow
I don’t know where to go
The light is fading fast
But then I see the stars
It shows me where you are
I follow what I think is your voice
I’m coming home
(Chorus)
You break down all my walls
You catch me when I fall
When everything is meaningless you matter most of all
My pain it goes away
When you take up my cross
And since that fateful day
The world is not the same
There’s still a lot to burn
The lies that I’ve learned
But the bloodstains of the past
Have washed away at last
Now all I see is you
My brightest wish come true
And since I’ve let you into my heart
My life’s renewed
The memories they linger on
It writes tainted painful song
The past won’t ever disappear
It keeps mindful of our fears
But whenever you are near
The stars are shining bright and clear
And despite the disarray
Everything will be ok

Bright

Fall in and out of grace
Pictures of you in mind
Trying to set a pace
Within our lives
Pushing you to the side
Remembering what I have
Desires that stem from pride
Can't lead your path
(Chorus)
Take heart
And know you won’t have to wait
Too long for love
Stand tall
And share your light with the world
The sky is bright tonight
Washing out all my hate
Forgiving my darkest acts
I’m ready for your embrace
Forget the past
Open my eyes to see
What you have brought for me
The knowledge to love complete
To hope and believe
Reveal the parts you have denied
Face the truth, you’ll have nothing left to hide
I won’t forget your pain
Revealing your heart to me
I pray that I will sustain
The grace to be free

Win The Fight
05:13

Hey, when people ask you why you're not the same as they
You give the answer that
You'll slowly find your place
And live the life that you still
Feel is far away
Unsure that
You are really doing all the
Things you know you should
And choices seem to pass
Before you know what’s good
And things you never did
But said you surely would
Regrets but
(Chorus)
There’s still time to make things right
Repair the wounds, sleep through the night
The sky is dark, but stars are bright
And if we try, we’ll win the fight
Just wait sometimes you move so fast you hardly know the day
The benefits you reap
Are only for your sake
You worry too much that
You forgot how to pray
And trust that
Things don’t always go your way
But all will be ok
It’s easy to give up your hope
And dwell in hate
You still believe your life is based
On your mistakes
But know that
Woah woah oh
You think you spoke to late
Woah woah oh
They’re closing up the gates
Oh woah oh oh oh oh
Your fear is set in deep
Oh woah oh oh oh oh
That salvation’s out of reach

Tell The Truth
05:00
|
|||
|
My hands are bound
To your bright lights
It's all that i can see
I’m in too deep and out of reach
The world revolves
Around your words
I wait for your command
I’ll try to fit into your plans
(Chorus)
But it's still dark
It's hard to look ahead
Somebody else
Will share his world with you today
I’m stuck on you
But how can I begin to tell the truth
When what I want will break the rules
I stop to pray
And think of you
And ask that you can’t see
My broken hope and misery
I cut the chains
To be set free
But no honey tastes as sweet
As the idea of you and me
A shooting star stands in the way
And miracles don’t happen everyday

Not Alone

Shine a light into the darkness of my mind
Can you help me see?
All my life, I’ve dwelt in the mystery of night
Can you set me free?
(Chorus)
Open up my blinds and shine right through
You can see I have a lot to do
Help me purge the sins I have embraced
Can you show me I’m not alone?
Turn around and see the destruction in my past
Do you still believe?
Will you stick around to find out what I am
Will I let you down?
Stuck inside the shame of all I should've done
But you stopped the rain
Looking up to see the night has turned to day
Now I believe
Can you show me I’m not alone?
As I walk through the unknown
I know I’m not on my own

Recklessly
04:48
|
|||
|
Bring me your scars
I’ll hold you and never go away
Future's not far
Look up and take it day by day
(Pre-chorus)
Give me the chance
To heal your wounds
And make you see
(Chorus)
I’ll follow you
Into the dark
I’ll put you back
When you fall apart
I recklessly pursue your heart
Cause I’ve loved you from the start
Your guilt and shame
Won’t follow when you're here with me
I’ll take the blame
Stand up and know you're finally free
I want it all
I want everything you want to be
Won’t let you fall
I’ll bring you light and make you see
When the sun goes away
When everything's covered in darkness
I will take you far away
And let you touch the sky

Barriers
06:18
|
|||
|
(Chorus)
My heart unwinds
My deepest fears
Are realized
When you are near
Without my barriers
The curtain falls
And here I stand
Revealed to all, woah oh
How did my world turn upside down?
So fast, you barely made a sound
You came and gave my life the truth
Rebelled and made all bad things new
(Pre-chorus)
As sure as night turns to day
I still remember they said
That you weren't far away
You are my love song
I give you everything I am
You have me under your command
Unsure, but I can't turn around
You've given me my golden crown
(No longer hiding in the shade
I've stopped playing my charades
You loved the darkest parts of me
So now, I'm finally walking free)
I want
To keep the brightness of your lights
I want
To bring our hearts to greater heights
Broke free
You've lit the fire in my soul
Told me
You showed me all I need to know

My Life
04:12
|
|||
|
The skyline lights up in fire
Out on the horizon
Unbridled like our desires
In a sea of green
Tomorrow can bring new hope
That good things never end
We'll walk in a cloud of smoke
And never look ahead
The mysteries beyond the deep
Will never be revealed
As long as we can keep
The light away
Deception that we share
Can never fill the void
But if you really care
You can make the choice
(Chorus)
I want to take the darkness from your eyes
I want to feel your heartbeat against mine
I’ll carry all your pain
And hide you from the rain
I offer you my life
The sunlight inside your soul
Grows dimmer every day
The night time can take a toll
And take you far away
You’ve swallowed your despair
To fake another smile
You try to say a prayer
But you’ll hold off for awhile
