Dark 03:33
lyrics
Here in this place without the sun All my fears leave me undone Please don't let this be the end So I'll just wait until I find my composure All I want is some closure To keep my sanity alive As I head into a violent crash, hairs stand on my neck I try to speak, but I'm such a wreck I cannot do this on my own Let your light, through me, be shown Fire away I've seen all that I can see I can't stay I don't want to always be In the dark No, I will not give in to The luring temptation Of giving in and letting go I have to breathe every breath as if it is my last I will try to be strong With Your help, I might make it through this Violent crash, hairs stand on my neck I try to speak, but I'm such a wreck I cannot do this on my own Let your light, through me, be shown All I can do is give up all expectations And trust in you until the battle has been won

Who Am I? 04:39
lyrics
Running circles through my head Oh, this feeling is so strong And it won't be long 'Til I can't take any more So I'll just keep holding on 'til I can see the light of day 'Cause I awoke to a nightmare I don't want to have to stay I don't want to stay Feel the blood course through my veins As I go through all this pain Who am I? Where should I place the blame? Who am I? Am I going insane? Going once, going twice Who am I? I thought that I'd stay the same I was a different man a long time ago I want to go back So I'll just keep holding on 'til I can see the light of day 'Cause I awoke to a nightmare I don't want to have to stay

Charade 04:06
lyrics
Look at all the counterfeit faces They're glancing back I won't become a cheap imitation They'll promise you "you'll have the world" Dollar by dollar, it's all for you Pick yourself up and claim your prize I don't want to run, there's no other choice It's no longer fun to share in all this noise Loaded like a gun, pull it back at shoot Can't trust anyone, I just want the truth Lately I've been inclined To look down from a soap box I know it's wrong, but I can't stop Maybe I am part of this charade after all Hello, how are you? I'm doing just fine If you look closer, that is a lie We put a face on to seem refined They'll promise you "you'll have the world" Dollar by dollar, it's all for you Pick yourself up and claim your prize I don't want to run, there's no other choice It's no longer fun to share in all this noise Loaded like a gun, pull it back at shoot Can't trust anyone, I just want the truth I can't walk away From this mess that I have made

Make My Day 04:23
lyrics
I can no longer see my home I don't know when I chose to go Oh, I don't want you to think That you bother me When all I have are the clothes on my back I wonder if they know that I'm gone I wonder, when all is said in done Oh, will they forget my name Or sit back, and place the blame Cause all I have are the clothes on my back Maybe I'll never know All I can do is show Kindness to everyone along the way I could forget everything Look at the clouds and dream Focus on above to make my day I walk along a lonely road Pondering things I've never known Oh, how could I throw away My life was led astray Now all I have are the clothes on my back Sing me another song or two I hope that I can confide in you Oh, I wish I could restart Fix all the broken parts See all I have are the clothes on my back

Part II: Crux 01:05
lyrics
Transform, let fog lift Constant, bonds too strong Reform, paradigm shift Relent, too far gone Change

Hand In Hand 04:33
lyrics
Know that I have tried to find the reasons why I lied, and what I hold inside I'm losing my mind Now I wonder if I will let go I am slipping away I can no longer stay Every second counts Move forward I won't rest until I am safe and sound Peace within I wake as you tell me Don't fall apart You need to understand I have you're heart You're not alone We're hand in hand Evil eyes come in different size And I won't let them fill me up with guilt As I reach out to make amends I'll build my defense I am slipping away I can no longer stay Every second counts Move forward I won't rest until I am safe and sound Peace within I wake as you tell me
8.
Light 04:27
lyrics
All your life you've felt Like a book upon a shelf When all is said and done You don't have anyone That's a choice we make Only so much we can take We don't have to be down There's room to turn around The way is hard We must support each other 'Cause there's hope, I know A strength that's like no other Change the way you think Just move on, move on, move on, move on I just want to do the right thing But I can't do it on my own I need to step forward Into the light Every time I find A reason I can't climb I try to make things right But not by my own might The way is hard We must support each other 'Cause there's hope, I know A strength that's like no other Oh how many times? Must you pay for all my crimes? I can't live without Your grace and forgiveness No other way Oh you need to
9.
Solo 04:43
lyrics
Fear the unknown What will it bring? It really could be anything Seeds have been sown Hold at arms length Just keep the light, hold to it's strength Given the time, this light will shine Brighter than any other Feed bravery, for what can't be seen Can be the greatest guide I won't fade away Because you're calling me, calling me Can't be led astray When I am on my knees, on my knees Anywhere you go Honestly, I can't go solo Keep your head strong Don't let it sway Keep sights fixed on the light of day Stones will fall down Promise fulfilled Light burning from inside still Given the time, this light will shine Brighter than any other Feed bravery, for what can't be seen Can be the greatest guide

Escaping 05:20
lyrics
Darkness before the dawn Choices we make will matter all along We get what we take Don't leave yourself in doubt I hope you're listening We have to keep moving on Every time I ran, it was from open arms I just had to go back to you, back to you How could I resist to know you? I'd lay down my life, if I had to I tried to run And still you accept me as I am No need to say a thing The words are escaping as they come I want to begin again And not get lost in the shame The viscous cycle of our sin Can drown us in the blame I can breathe now that I know Every time I ran, it was from open arms I just had to go back to you, back to you How could I resist to know you? I'd lay down my life, if I had to

Part III: Euphoria 01:55
lyrics
Two hands of time They intertwine and fall in line If all could be seen What would we glean? Find the meaning? Blow with the wind Bring forward all that lies within Look towards the Son As it is done, the day will be won And it's here to stay Two hands of time They intertwine
12.
Already Won 04:24
lyrics
Brave, oh I've got to be oh so Brave, already tried it all solo And it cut to the core of my heart Brave, no I'm not gonna go so Brave, I don't have to fight this alone I've made my choice It seems like I don't feel the pain Is it finally gone? Sun will follow the rain I'm not sure where to go from here Should I take a leap of faith? I will try to grow from mistakes along the way It will be hard to do sometimes What comes around will come around again As I circle the Son, You've already won Brave, oh you know I got real low Brave, you picked me up from my hell And now it seems like I don't feel the pain Is it finally gone? Sun will follow the rain I'm not sure where to go from here Should I take a leap of faith?

Wonderful 04:15
lyrics
Peace flows through me I'm on my own two feet I am overwhelmed All the days spent in battles I can't win They are behind me Oh I am so thankful You were the only one that knew The way out of my madness Can't live without you Or I would just make a mess Now I have risen tall How far I had to fall It's so wonderful I'm overjoyed to be right Where You want me to be right now It's what I desire All the days spent in battles I can't win They are behind me Oh I am so thankful
14.
The One Who Saved Me 04:33
lyrics
Everyone has past mistakes It is the mess of going our own way What makes the difference is whether We let them hold us back or not Out of my way There's a strength that pulled me out I won't delay I will not submit to doubt I was on my own just falling apart now I'm Free to live within forgiveness Free to live amongst Your goodness You are the answer to my cries You are the one who saved me If you're the king, then I am your pawn I will obey, and we will see the battle be won March to the drum of the battle for our hearts And we will make all our problems shrink in fear and get Out of my way There's a strength that pulled me out I won't delay I will not submit to doubt I was on my own just falling apart now I'm

Above The Clouds 04:05
lyrics
I am so weak I have fallen to my knees A weight lifts off of my shoulders And I start to tremble You're telling me it is not over I'll remember, it always We are high above the clouds Our chains have been broken The winter's demise shows the colors of spring What a sight to behold Sense of freedom awoken And our story is just beginning Know that pain can make us strong As long as we hold on A weight lifts off of my shoulders And I start to tremble You're telling me it is not over I'll remember, it always

Revival [Bonus Track] 03:39
lyrics

This is the time, the time for revival So choose your side, or go your own way All I want is a rhyme or reason Take away all the plot and the treason Because I know it well I've been looking for a needle in a haystack It's a fact that you didn't have my back Sometimes it's hard to tell I want to find the intangible mysteries I don't want to fade away You give me what I can take This is the time, the time for revival So choose your side, or go your own way All I want is a rhyme or reason Take away all the plot and the treason Because I know it well I've been looking for a needle in a haystack It's a fact that you didn't have my back Sometimes it's hard to tell
