The Fight
Stand up and Fight
Once gone. You stay.
Don’t do what you’re thinking
There’s no coming back from that so you know.
My guess you’ve been drinking.
I’ve come here to beg you not to go
All the time you’ve thought its right
To feel messed up, hated, as you fall to pieces
Telling you I’m on your side
Now we’re rising slowly time to
Stand up, stand up and fight
Who knows why we face things
I’ve always noticed her to be strong
She’s down in the basement
And I’m standing here wondering what went wrong
All the time you’ve thought its right
To feel messed up, hated, as you fall to pieces
Telling you I’m on your side
Now we’re rising slowly time to
Stand up, stand up and fight
I know you’re in pain
How can you see straight this way
I know you’re ashamed
I just want to tell you right now.
I think you’re wonderful. You’re so young
Wonderful.
All the time you’ve thought its right
To feel messed up, hated, as you fall to pieces
Telling you I’m on your side
Now we’re rising slowly time to
Stand up, stand up and fight
I know you’re in pain
How can you see straight this way
I know you’re ashamed
Beginning to change…
I will wait for you to come back
I will stay with you right here
Letter to Fear
I have really come to hate you.
See I don’t wanna be the one walking faithless
And you just wanna hold the gun, empty, bonus
And I don’t wanna be the one to play your game
And I don’t wanna be the one that’s gone insane
Hold truth, we’ll make it. You’re evil and faceless
You tried all of the reasons inside
And all those frustrations defied
Along with those demons that hide
Inside…
You’ve been living, loathing, laughing
I’ve been trading, trying, trusting
You tried all of the reasons inside
All the frustrations defied
Along with the demons that hide
You’ve been living, loathing, laughing
I’ve been trading, trying, trust
My Ending
Bury the fallen that won’t matter to me
Carry the broken, don’t ever let them see
The stories you told me I’ve still been wondering why
Wait for the chosen, that’s just been far too trying
I can’t find my ending, I’ve been way to gone
But I told you once my friend how I’ve been lost and lonely
And I have found your eyes stare, and I will pay for this
But I’ll tell you once again
How I’ve felt down and that I’m bound to you.
Bound to you
Words never spoken that won’t matter to me
Knife for the swollen, don’t ever let them bleed
The stories you told me I’ve still been wondering why
Wait for the chosen, that’s just been far too trying
I can’t find my ending, I’ve been way to gone
But I told you once my friend how I’ve been lost and lonely
And I have found your eyes stare, and I will pay for this
But I’ll tell you once again
How I’ve felt down and that I’m bound to you.
Bound to you. Bound to you.
I want you to break
Favored
Slaves do what they’re told to
This bondage will hold true
Shaken, broken, start clanking those chains
A freedom disposal, absorbed by their own way of thinking
Controlled by those self centered lies
I don’t want to be with you, I just want to know the truth
I don’ want to live and die to show you that I have no freedom
I don’t want to live a lie, I just need this by my side
I don’t want to try and pay the price he paid in full for freedom.
We’re Favored
They don’t know what that means
We’re Favored
Spaces I long to be
We’re Favored
Shouting to all who believe
You’re favored
but you gotta stop doubting, stop doubting
Do all that’s been told you
Stop trusting your own way that’s wasted and broken
Those dead works will fail
I don’t want to be with you, I just want to know the truth
I don’ t want to live and die to show you that I have no freedom
I don’t want to live a lie, I just need this by my side
I don’t want to try and pay the price he paid in full for freedom.
We’re Favored
They don’t know what that means
We’re Favored
Spaces I long to be
We’re Favored
Shouting to all who believe
You’re favored
but you gotta stop doubting, stop doubting
Now let us cross with this bridge back to life
I’ll turn from my ways and stop doubting
These eyes are ready to see
Wind & Waves
I’m tortured by the wind and the waves
The storm beats down now on top of the graves
We’re standing tall prepared for the rain
Gotta tell you something the sheltered sustained
In a world below
Rots the ones that try to steal hope
And a land we know
Hides the force that won’t reveal them
I won’t choke on the pain, be burned by the flame
I’m trying but there’s something that I need you to say
Not crushed by the weight, not scared of a fate
I’m trying and there’s something that I need you to be
I’m tortured by the wind and the waves
The storm beats down now on top of the graves
We’re standing tall prepared for the rain
Gotta tell you something the sheltered sustained
When I thought I’d die
When I thought I can’t remember
Fire burns inside
Torches all these fallen legions
I won’t die by their blade, nor suffer their shame
Gut churning and there’s something that I need you to say
Not crushed by the weight, not given to fate
Still trying but there’s something that I need you to be
I’m tortured by the wind and the waves
The storm beats down now on top of the graves
We’re standing tall prepared for the rain
Gotta tell you something the sheltered sustained
We won’t bow down to kings on thrones
We won’t sell out to skin and bone.
Fallacy
Fool to believe them
Thought that fear in something was better than nothing
You fought to know me, now I’m running slowly
I’ve been in your sights, inside.
Messing with a life, inside
Stone faced and eyes jaded
I know you’re wrong for me.
Can’t take it, barely breathing
Found out your fallacy
How you’ve been living a lie
Cruel can’t describe them
Taught that pain from something was better than nothing
You fought to show me how I’m so unholy
I’m still in your sights, inside
You’re messing with a lie, inside
Stone faced and eyes jaded
I know you’re wrong for me.
Can’t take it, barely breathing
Found out your fallacy
How you’ve been living a lie
