Fighting Everything Lyrics
[Intro]
You better get headed in the right direction
Welcome aboard Alliance Airlines, Flight 123
The captain has turned on the fasten seat belts sign
Please return your seats and keep your seat belts fastened
Thank you
[Verse 1]
I hear a voice that's coming
Through speakers taped while tracking
It sounds like mine but it's not right, it's not right
I've lost control, the darkness pulls me in
What could a kid do to deserve a fate like this?
[Chorus]
Hope against all hope
That I'll find love somewhere out there
Hope against all hope
That I'll find these, come rescue me, yeah
[Verse 2]
I'd give up everything to free this hook
Is it a story meant for make-believe or children books?
[Chorus]
Hope against all hope
That I'll find love somewhere out there
Hope against all hope
That I'll find these, come rescue me, yeah
[Outro]
Hope against all hope
That I'll find love somewhere out there
Somewhere out there
On Becoming Willing Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm not asleep but I need to wake up
It's never enough
I have depth to my cup
This is no joke
Don't want to fight
Maybe I'll end it all on this night
[Chorus 1]
Father can you feel me?
I'm on my knees
I'm reaching out and I need you now
'Cause the light in my heart's burned out
[Verse 2]
Maybe there's still time to find a way out
I just need something
I need it right now
Feeling so weak
I'm in pain
Tell me there has to be a better way
[Chorus 1]
Father can you feel me?
I'm on my knees
I'm reaching out and I need you now
'Cause the light in my heart's burned out
[Chorus 2]
Father can you hear me?
I think I might be freaking out
And I need you now
'Cause the light in my heart's burned out
[Chorus 1]
Father can you feel me?
I'm on my knees
I'm reaching out and I need you now
'Cause the light in my heart's burned out
[Chorus 2]
Father can you hear me?
I think I might be freaking out
And I need you now
'Cause the light in my heart's burned out
The Awakening Lyrics
[Intro]
Are we alive, are we alive
Are we asleep or awakened
[Verse 1]
Humanity once again is at a crossroads
Forced to do what we're told
But I refuse to fold
I know you know you can feel it
[Chorus]
Are we asleep or awakened
Atoned or forsaken
I am starting to see the trend
A new world disorder
Of infectious controllers
I am starting to see the trend
[Verse 2]
Let's fight to keep what we have 'cause this is not the end
Remember all of the blood that was shed of then
Who fought and died, can you feel them
[Chorus]
Are we asleep or awakened
Atoned or forsaken
I am starting to see the trend
A new world disorder
Of infectious controllers
I am starting to see the trend
[Bridge]
I am starting to see
I am starting to see
I am starting to see the trend
I am starting to see
I am starting to see
I am starting to see the trend
Are you starting to see
Are you starting to see
Are you starting to see the trend
Are we asleep or awakened
(I know you know you can feel it)
[Chorus]
Are we asleep or awakened
Atoned or forsaken
Are you starting to see the trend
A new world disorder
Of infectious controllers
Are you starting to see the trend
Whoa whoa, whoa
Are you starting to see the trend
Whoa whoa, whoa
Are we asleep or awakened
Saul to Paul Lyrics
[Verse 1]
For all the times you told me not to jump 'cause I might fall
I said 'Thank you, thank you'
But I'm the kind of guy that has to fall to learn to fly
Still, I say 'Thank you, thank you.'
[Pre-Chorus]
For all the times I looked into your eyes and said 'You lie'
Oh, I'm sorry
For all the times I looked into the sky and said I hated you
I'm sorry, God forgive me
[Chorus]
Oh, Lord please help me change from Saul to Paul before it's too late (Before it's too late)
Oh Lord, I need to see that I can still be useful
That I can still serve thee
That I can still serve thee
[Verse 2]
For all the times you told me not to scream 'cause I might bleed
I said 'Thank you, thank you'
But I'm the kind of guy that has to scream to learn to sing
Still, I say 'Thank you, thank you'
[Pre-Chorus]
For all the times I looked into the sky and said I hated you
I'm sorry
For all the times I looked into your eyes and said 'You lie'
Oh, I'm sorry, God forgive me (God, forgive me)
[Chorus]
Oh Lord, please help me change from Saul to Paul before it's too late (Before it's too late)
Oh Lord, I need to see that I can still be useful
That I can still serve thee
That I can still serve thee
[Bridge]
I built my house on sand
I had to crawl to land to stand
And still, you loved me
I blamed it all on you
I was just hiding from the truth
And still, you loved me
And still, you loved me
And still, you loved me
And still, you loved me
And still, you loved me
And still, you loved me
And still, you loved me
And still, you loved me
And still, you loved me
And still, you loved me
And still, you loved me
And still, you loved me
In There Somewhere Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's difficult to keep an open mind when dealing with emotions
Strong as the oceans
I will sing this for you one more time
To show you my devotion has no erosion
[Chorus]
I know you're in there somewhere
(I know you're in there somewhere)
I know that you're still here
I know you're in there somewhere
So I wait for you, my darling
Because you waited for me so long
[Verse 2]
I see the world with such a different eye
But the confrontation's over and I stayed sober
I don't care how long it takes, that's fine
As now I wait my days one at a time
[Chorus]
I know you're in there somewhere
(I know you're in there somewhere)
I know that you still care
I know you're in there somewhere
So I wait for you, my darling
Because you waited for me so long
So long
So long
So long
[Other]
I know you're in there somewhere
(I know you're in there somewhere)
I know that you still care
I know you're in there somewhere
(I know you're in there)
So I wait for you, my darling
Because you waited for me so long
I know you're in there somewhere, yeah
I know that you're still here
I know you're in there somewhere
So I wait for you, my darling
Because you waited for me so long
Shooting Star Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You came in like a shooting star
Bringing light into my dark
Showing me a better way
I thought I'd given up on love
I thought I'd given up on trust
Oh, and it was sorrowing then
So I pushed you away
[Chorus]
But you wouldn't let me drain
I was down at the bottom of the bottle so long
I couldn't get helped
You came to me and showed me that everything could be okay
I needed someone to love me that dies in the same way
[Verse 2]
I really don't deserve your arm
My sweet Angel, oh
You're the one I have to thank
There's a darkness inside of me
Most of you will not see
Yeah, and somehow she decided to stay
Now I'm forever changed
[Chorus]
But you wouldn't let me drain
I was down at the bottom of the bottle so long
I couldn't get helped
You came to me and showed me that everything could be okay
I needed someone to love me that dies in the same way
[Bridge]
Oh, I'm not afraid to die
But I'm afraid of you waking up tomorrow saying 'we are through'
Now that I'm finally clean
God sent me an angel to fix these broken wings
God sent me an angel, but I fell in love with her
[Chorus]
You wouldn't let me drown, no
I was down at the bottom of the bottle so long
I couldn't get helped
You came to me and showed me that everything could be ok
I needed someone to love me that dies in the same way
Learning to Live Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've come so far but there was a lot of work still left
Every time I think I am done, things start to shift
But when I wake up next to you, then I feel loved
I'm telling you boys there is power in your touch
[Chorus]
Oh, it's true
All that you do
Greatly affects me, greatly affects me too
All that you do
Greatly affects me, greatly affects me
[Verse 2]
There will never be another girl that ever compare to you
Because you have it from the start
And then you gave me all your heart
And I know sometimes that I can act a fool
It doesn't mean that I care any less for you
[Chorus]
Oh, it's true
All that you do
Greatly affects me, greatly affects me too
All that you do
Greatly affects me, greatly affects me
[Bridge]
I didn't want you to see you're on my ???
Because I was afraid that this could follow ???
I swear that I'll be the one to guard your heart
Yeah, and I hold on for this forever
[Chorus Variation]
Do you see what you do?
Greatly affects me, greatly affects me
Do you see what you do?
Greatly affects me, greatly affects me
Do you see what you do?
Greatly affects me, greatly affects me
Do you see what you do?
Greatly affects me, greatly affects me
Turn It Over Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Breathe in for trust
Breathe in for truth
Breathe in for heart
Breathe in for youth
Breathe out for hate
Breathe out for pain
Breathe out for age
'Cause everything's okay
[Chorus]
If it's too heavy for me, then I just turn it over
You're so much stronger than me, so I just turn it over
[Verse 2]
This is a lesson to learn
From doing in a hard way
Sometimes you have to get burned
May I still chase something
[Chorus]
If it's too heavy for me, then I just turn it over
You're so much stronger than me, so I just turn it over
[Bridge]
We've all had days
It hurts to move
It hurts to breathe
It hurts to lose
It's amazing you'd show graze to a wretch like me
Let's be honest I am far from the example I should be
You never gave up on me
[Chorus]
If it's too heavy for me, then I just turn it over
You're so much stronger than me, so I just turn it over
We Can Show You How Lyrics
[Verse 1]
No flashing lights in the rear view
No [?]
No more lying for release
No more sadness, only peace
Yeah I know you cause I was there myself
[Chorus]
[?] will carry you home
You gotta climb your way back out
I've been there myself
I've been there myself
Oh, climb your way back out
I've been there myself
Man I've been there myself
[Verse 2]
Okay I need to preach
I don't thin it's something I can teach
But I know you've been having a hard time for a long time
Freedom, happiness, growth
[Chorus]
[?] will carry you home
You gotta climb your way back out
I've been there myself
I've been there myself
Oh, climb your way back out
I've been there myself
Man I've been there myself
[Bridge]
This is something I've been holding on for a long time
Sometimes it's better to wait so the words come out right
If it's only right just give it some time
Give it some time
[Outro Chorus]
Oh, you gotta climb your way back out
I've been there myself
Yeah I've been there myself
I've been there myself
I've been there myself
I've been there myself
Yeah I've been there myself
Unfinished Business Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Asked for mistakes, I think I made them all
I'm still paying my debts to the ones that I love
Asked for the pain that I know that I caused
Oh, I still have regrets to the one that I love
[Chorus]
And I know I failed you but now I'm trying so hard, so hard
And I know I failed you but now I'm trying so hard, so hard
[Verse 2]
Living so selfishly, gain at all cost
But then I really looked inside
And as those tears came down my eyes, I finally surrendered
And since I did I've seen the truth
That you only want the best for me
And you just wanna help me through
[Other]
And I know I failed you but now I'm trying so hard, so hard
And I know I failed you but now I'm trying so hard
Yes, I know I failed you but now I'm trying so hard, so hard
Oh, I still have regrets to the one I love most
