"Justice & Mercy"
We can't be oblivious
We are not ignorant
Blood in our hearts
Blood on our hands
We're human
We reason
We're breathing
Protecting
You're living and dying, surviving, we're trying
To breathe in safety
Come home safely
Mercy screams its violent love
Justice..
And mercy
Justice..
And mercy
The death of us created for
Justice..
And mercy
Justice..
And mercy
This is where they kiss
Life, here sacrificed
Someone who payed the price
Blood in our hearts
Blood on our hands
We cry out, we're fighting, it's warfare, we're dying
Believing we're winning, it's ending, we're singing
It's already done
We've overcome
Mercy screams its violent love
Justice..
And mercy
Justice..
And mercy
The death of us created for
Justice..
And mercy
Justice..
And mercy
This is where they kiss
With a life on the line (the fire..)
That consumes or refines (the fire..)
To ascend or decline
To retreat or to climb
Out of sight, out of mind
'til attacked from behind
Will this fire..
Consume or refine?
Mercy screams its violent love
Justice..
And mercy
Justice..
And mercy
The death of us created for
Justice..
And mercy
Justice..
And mercy
This is where they kiss -
Oh, what a cold, dark world it is to walk through
Alone with a fear-filled head
Thinking of losing you is a haunted song
And a dread much worse than the fear of death
Now I feel the fear rising up
Climbing up, taking over my body
And I feel my pulse starting up
Waking me again
Open my eyes, I'm reaching for you
Set me on fire, set me on fire
I'm burning inside, I'm waiting for you
Set me on fire, set me on fire
Your hand in mine, oh, I feel the fire
Two hearts that beat, oh, to feed the fire
You are a spark that shines a light
Where we could belong together, factionless
Let's keep it burning bright 'til we're floating away,
'til we're ashes dancing inside the flames
Now I feel the fear rising up
Climbing up, taking over my body
And I feel my pulse starting up
Waking me again
Open my eyes, I'm reaching for you
Set me on fire, set me on fire
I'm burning inside, I'm waiting for you
Set me on fire, set me on fire
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Your hand in mine, oh, I feel the fire
Two hearts that beat, oh, to feed the fire
Open my eyes, I'm reaching for you
Set me on fire, set me on fire
I'm burning inside, I'm waiting for you
Set me on fire, set me on fire
Oh, oh, oh
Set me on fire, set me on fire
Oh, oh, oh
Set me on fire, set me on fire
Oh, oh, oh -
I wanna cut me free, You are make believe
I'm made of flesh and bone, you wanna take control of me
You wanna dress me up, I wanna feel the sun
You wanna play pretend, I'm not about to bend, you'll see
This is not a game
You want the strings so you can
Pull at my soul and tear me down
You want it all, I'm not your marionette doll
So let me go
I'm taking back the day you tried to steal from me
I'm going to make my voice, you'll never get my choice to breathe
This is not a game
You want the strings so you can
Pull at my soul and tear me down
You want it all, I'm not your marionette doll
So let me go
Whoa, let me go
Whoa, so let me go
Whoa, let me go
Whoa
I wanna cut me free, you are make believe
You want the strings so you can
Pull at my soul and tear me down
You want it all, I'm not your marionette doll
So let me go
You want the strings so you can
Pull at my soul and tear me down
You want it all, I'm not your marionette doll
So let me go -

It's not like I'm walking alone into the valley of the shadow of death
Stand beside one another, 'cause it ain't over yet
I'd be willing to bet that if we don't back down
You and I will be the ones that are holding the Crown in the end
When it's over, we can say, "Well done"
But not yet, 'cause it's only begun
So, pick up, and follow me, we're the only ones
To fight this thing, until we've won
We drive on and don't look back
It doesn't mean we can't learn from our past
All the things that we might've done wrong
We could've been doing this all along
[Chorus x2:]
Everybody, with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside, or step aside
We're on the frontline
And we'll be carrying on, until the day it doesn't matter anymore
Step aside, you forgot what this is for
We fight to live, we live to fight
And tonight, you'll hear my battle cry
We live our lives on the frontlines
We're not afraid of the fast times
These days have opened up my eyes
And now, I see where the threat lies
[Chorus x2:]
(We live our lives on the frontlines)
(We're not afraid of the fast times)
(We live our lives on the frontlines)
(We're not afraid)
We've got to lead the way
We've got to lead the way
[Chorus x2:]
Everybody, with your fists raised high
Stand aside on the frontline
Everybody, with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry
Everybody, with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside, or step aside
We're on the frontline -

"Desperate"
Seek and you will find, they say
but I've been looking everyday,
for a way past this wall that's in front of my face.
I'm on hands and knees searching for my faith
I know there's so much at stake,
but I don't know if I can take one more pat on the back saying I'll be okay
Can't you see my whole life is in disarray
You've got me desperate.
I know You hear me,
Would You give me a sign
Reel me in before I've fallen in line.
You've put me on a path I don't understand
I'm standing on a ledge waving my hands
You've got me desperate (do You see me)
Desperate (do You hear me)
Desperate (will You help me)
You've got me desperate
I know You're my only hope
The only One who truly knows how it feels, what it's like when it all starts to fall
You're the One I can trust, who hears when I call.
You've got me desperate
I know You hear me,
Would You give me a sign
Reel me in before I've fallen in line.
You've put me on a path I don't understand
I'm standing on a ledge waving my hands
You've got me desperate (do You see me)
Desperate (do You hear me)
Desperate (will You help me)
You've got me desperate
(You've got me desperate)
Some things I'll never figure out
Until I let hope erase my doubt
(You've got me desperate)
I know You hear me,
Would You give me a sign
Reel me in before I've fallen in line.
You've put me on a path I don't understand,
I'm standing on a ledge waving my hands
You've got me desperate (do You see me)
Desperate (do You hear me)
Desperate (will You help me)
You've got me desperate -
Fiction and reality collide
Faceless and so busted up inside
You've been searching you've been crying out
Will you be destroyed by all your doubt?
You decide
(Who will you run to)
Wrong or right
(There is no reason)
For you to hide
Only love can change your life
You decide
God is calling out to you again
Let Him pull you, let Him take you in
From the fear that swallows up for your life
Will you stay the same or will you fight?
You decide
(Who will you run to)
Wrong or right
(There is no reason)
For you to hide
Only love can change your life
Only love can change your life
Every day you hold on to your lonely broken heart
(It's tearing you apart)
God is calling out to you just let healing start
(Will you open up and let Him in)
You decide
(Who will you run to)
Wrong or right
(There is no reason)
For you to hide
Only love can change your life
You decide -
What I've Overcome"
I've got this passion
It's something I can't describe
It's so electric
It's like I've just come alive
I feel this freedom
Now that my past is erased
I feel the healing
I found the meaning of grace
(I found grace)
If only you could see me yesterday
Who I used to be before the change
You'd see a broken heart
You'd see the battle scars
It's funny how words can't explain
How good it feels to finally break the chains
I'm not what I have done
I'm what I've overcome
I know I'll stumble
I know I'll still face defeat
These second chances will define me
So I'm moving forward
I'm standing on my two feet
I've got momentum
I've got someone saving me
(Got someone saving me)
If only you could see me yesterday
Who I used to be before the change
You'd see a broken heart
You'd see the battle scars
It's funny how words can't explain
How good it feels to finally break the chains
I'm not what I have done
I'm what I've overcome
I'll make mistakes and I might fall
But I won't break
I've got someone saving me -
The healing of harms....

"Liar"
Empty prayers falling out your mouth.
Jesus said it better and He didn't have to shout.
Maybe if you change it you can get your way.
Just rearrange it and you can get paid.
A little more money comes in every day.
Faith and five dollars goes a long way.
Look at your pockets filled up with gold
But what's in your heart is making you cold.
I'm sick of all your lies
(It's who you are)
We see through your disguise
All that I see when you start to cry.
Is the rock on your finger and gleam in your eye.
Your sad story is making me sick.
So change the channel cause it's getting thick.
Blind accusations is all you can say
but you'll say anything as long as you're paid.
Look for their weakness you feed on their need
But behind your eyes is nothing but greed.
I'm sick of all your lies
(It's who you are)
We see through your disguise
None of your dreams come true
(It's time you know)
You can't sell the truth
[Spoken]
You party and dine with the fattest of swine
But your stink can't hide behind closed doors
Get your hands off my face, I won't shudder and shake
What you're selling, I won't buy anymore
Why do you lie to make me love you?
Is it your insecurity?
Have fun with your selfish ways and misguided thoughts
Cause you will always be...liar
I'm siick of all your lies
(It's who you are)
We see through your disguise
None of your dreams come true
(It's time you know)
You can't sell the truth
Liar! [7x] -
ds are searching for you
My arms are outstretched towards you
I feel you on my fingertips
My tongue dances behind my lips for you
This fire rising through my being
Burning I'm not used to seeing you
I'm alive, I'm alive
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
My hands float up above me
And you whisper you love me
And I begin to fade
Into our secret place
The music makes me sway
The angels singing say we are alone with you
I am alone and they are too with you
I'm alive
I'm alive
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
So I cry
(Holy)
The light is white
(Holy)
And I see you
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
And I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing
Take my hand
I give it to you
Now you own me
All I am
You said you would never leave me
I believe you
I believe
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healed -
Sometimes I feel like I'm alone
Hoping, praying You hear me
Screaming inside to ease the pain
Save me, keep me alive
I'm not afraid anymore
Of what I don't know
Believe, in the unknown (I put my faith, in the unknown)
Believe, in God alone (I put my hope, in God alone)
Have faith in what you don't know
Sometimes I feel like I have to cry
Until my emotions have run dry
I'm breaking inside to hide the pain
Save me, keep me alive
I know you're here
I can feel you now
I know your love embraces me
Give up all your sorrow
Have faith in what you don't know
In God alone
Have faith in what you don't know
You don't know -
"Welcome To The Masquerade"
We've got the fire, who's got the matches
Take a look around at the sea of masks
and come one come all, welcome to the grand ball
Where the strong run for cover and the weak stand tall
I'm not one to scatter ashes
But there's some things that melt the plastic
Try and dig down deeper if you can
I'm not afraid
I'm not ashamed
I'm not to blame
Welcome to the masquerade
I'm not ashamed
I'm not afraid
I'm not okay
Welcome to the masquerade
Welcome to the masquerade
We've got the power, who's got the action
Break it down till there's nothing but a mere fraction
Out of the fire, rise from the ashes
Reject your doubt and release the passion
Let's get on it, believe if you want it
step into the realm where the real ones flaunt it
Come back, rewind, another time on it
Reach out, take that, but now step on it
I'm not one to scare the masses
But there's some things that melt the plastic
Try and dig down deeper if you can
I'm not afraid
I'm not ashamed
I'm not to blame
Welcome to the masquerade
I'm not ashamed
I'm not afraid
I'm not okay
Welcome to the masquerade
Welcome to the masquerade
I'm not afraid
I'm not ashamed
I'm not to blame
Welcome to the masquerade
I'm not ashamed
I'm not afraid
I'm not okay
Welcome to the masquerade
Welcome to the masquerade
Welcome to the masquerade
I'm not one to scatter ashes
But there's some things that melt the plastic
Try and dig down deeper if you can
I'm not afraid
I'm not ashamed
I'm not to blame
Welcome to the masquerade
I'm not ashamed
I'm not afraid
I'm not okay
Welcome to the masquerade
Welcome to the masquerade -
"Untraveled Road"
Hold on for a second, if words can be weapons
Then what I say can effect it, theyre not just words on a record
And I can choose to respect it, or choose to infect it
But once it hits the water, its too late to be selective
Cause one voice is enough to make sleeping giants wake up
To make armies put their hands up and watch whole nations stand up
Its one belief, one spark, one faith and one restart
And we can reboot the whole chart before it all falls apart
So stand up, shout it out, and put em in the air if you like it loud
We only got one shot, so lets make it count, its a take down, nobody can stop us now
Stand up, shout it out, sing it loud, so the world cant drown us out
And before we depart, lets leave a mark cause light shines brighter in the dark
When we scream, our lips dont make a sound
We march, with feet on solid ground
We walk, where no one wants to go, on this untraveled road
So hold on for a moment, if were not scared of opponents
Then with what we have we can own it, well just plant the seed and keep growin it
And when that light shines in the mornin, theyll still be waken up yawning
But well be smilin like we expected, with sweet victory one method
Cause one voice is enough to make sleeping giants wake up
To make armies put their hands up and watch whole nations stand up
Its one belief, one spark, one faith and one restart
And we can reboot the whole chart before it all falls apart
So stand up, shout it out, and put em in the air if you like it loud
We only got one shot, so lets make it count, its a take down, nobody can stop us now
Stand up, shout it out, sing it loud, so the world cant drown us out
Before we depart, lets leave a mark cause light shines brighter in the dark
When we scream, our lips dont make a sound
We march, with feet on solid ground
We walk, where no one wants to go, on this untraveled road
When we scream, our lips don't make a sound
We march, with feet on solid ground
We walk, where no one wants to go, on this untraveled road
And I can choose to respect it, or choose to infect it
But once it hits the water, it's too late to be selective
'Cause one voice is enough to make sleeping giants wake up
To make armies put their hands up and watch whole nations stand up
It's one belief, one spark, one faith and one restart
And we can reboot the whole chart before it all falls apart
When we scream, our lips don't make a sound
We march, with feet on solid ground
We walk, where no one wants to go, on this untraveled road
When we scream, our lips don't make a sound
We march with feet on soild ground
We walk, where no one wants to go, on this untraveled road
On this untraveled road
On this untraveled road -
Dear pain, oh, it's been a long time
Remember when you were holding me tight
I would stay awake with you all night
Dear shame, I was safe in your arms
You were there when it all fell apart
I would get so lost in your beautiful lies
I let you go but you're still chasing
Go ahead, you're never going to take me
You can bend, but you're never going to break me
I was yours, I'm not yours anymore
You don't own me
Dear hate, I know you're not far
You would wait at the door of my heart
I was amazed at the passion in your cries
Dear anger, you made me so high
You were faithful to show up on time
Such a flame that was burning in your eyes
I let you go, but you're still chasing
Go ahead, you're never going to take me
You can bend, but you're never going to break me
I was yours, I'm not yours anymore
You don't own me
Go ahead, put a target on my forehead
You can fire, but you've got no bullet
I was yours, I'm not yours anymore
You don't own me
You tempted me to look back
But everything that we had together was a lie
Go ahead, you're never going to take me
You can bend, but you're never going to break me
I was yours, I'm not yours anymore
You don't own me
Go ahead, put a target on my forehead
You can fire, but you've got no bullet
I was yours, I'm not yours anymore
You don't own me
Go ahead, put a target on my forehead
You can fire, but you've got no bullet
I was yours, I'm not yours anymore
You don't own me
