1.	The Falling 03:59	lyrics	buy track
Set this butterfly alight Drown this dove in the cries of the shadows in the night Highlight the lyrics to the darkest song Relive the past that's been buried so long When innocence is stolen The angels weep but truth be told Not even tears can wash away these scars of young and old We've all been given a choice Which path will you take? Where are the answers you seek? WHAT MISTAKES WILL YOU MAKE? I'm spiraling out of control Buried alive, nowhere to run The air I breathe it leaves me numb Hollowed out chest my heart is gone SOMEONE HELP ME NOW I'm falling, I'm drowning PLEASE SAVE ME I can feel my heartbeat racing There are voices in my head We approach the darkest hour We walk amongst the dead We are the weak the broken Cursed by this fallen world I'm drowning in the shadows I've lost sight of the sun I HAVE LOST SIGHT OF THE SUN
2.	Rise From The Darkness 04:53	lyrics	buy track
You take yours and I'll take mine I know we'll make it out alive Trust on this road we take The future's only what we make Search deep inside your soul Living blind will take it's toll Truth and grace is all around It's in our hearts it can be found Choking on my lies When I know the truth I've always turned my back But now I need you When selfish desires embrace your soul It's hard to know which way to go I find a self embodied lust Clouds the truth in which we trust Get my life back on it's track I will push forward I won't look back Through your grace I will be strong Find the truth, dispose the wrong Choking on my lies When I know the truth I've always turned my back But now I need you Falling to my knees I don't deserve a thing But you still saved me With a second chance at truth I'll find the strength to conquer change Show me the way RISE FROM THE DARKNESS I had the whole world in my hands I was the king of my domain I never thought it could be taken away Thought I could make it through But now I NEED YOU No cut too deep YOUR BLOOD RUNS THROUGH ME Thorns in my side YOUR BLOOD RUNS THROUGH ME Shadows engulfed by flames A darkness ridden plague Memories lie ablaze YOUR BLOOD RUNS THROUGH ME
3.	Lamentations 03:36	lyrics	buy track
I'm starting to see that life isn't always easy But that doesn't mean that I won't find my way out of this I refuse to stay down And so I'm asking Tell me is this what I need To keep me breathing To make me feel alive Lord can you show me what I need Cause I can't stop the bleeding And it's been this way too long I'm starting to see that life doesn't always seem fair But that doesn't mean that I won't put my trust in you I refuse to let go And so I'm asking Tell me is this what I need To keep me breathing To make me feel alive Lord can you show me what I need Cause I can't stop the bleeding And it's been this way too long I dwell in darkness like those long dead I can not escape, I'm weighed down with chains Like a bear lying in wait, like a lion in hiding Dragged from the path I am mangled MY SOUL IS DOWNCAST WITHIN ME THE BITTERNESS AND THE GAUL AND YET THROUGH THIS I KNOW WITHIN ME MY SOUL IS COMFORTED WITH HOPE One love so great, we are not consumed Great is your faithfulness, I will wait for you I called on your name from the depths of the pit You heard my plea, you redeemed my life AND YET THROUGH THIS I KNOW WITHIN ME MY SOUL IS COMFORTED WITH HOPE
4.	Lost Road 05:30	lyrics	buy track
This reflection in the mirror Speaks louder than words And these hollow eyes that it pours through Are sunken with regret And I know that I'm to blame And I know that life is not a maze But at times we get lost in the same mistakes We realise once it's too late Falling apart Going down this lonely road That I've been down before I trust in you to mend this wounded soul Another broken promise Compiled with empty words And this self inflicted endless cycle Takes it's toll on my heart And I know that I'm to blame And I know that life is not a maze But at times we get lost in the same mistakes We realise once it's too late Falling apart Going down this lonely road That I've been down before I trust in you to mend this wounded soul Take away this pain that's in my heart Set me free ♫ Cool guitar solo ♫ Falling apart Going down this lonely road That I've been down before I trust in you for a fresh new start in me I am not afraid To admit that I am nothing without you I'm not afraid to take the blame But you take the blame for me Why would you take the blame when I am nothing? I trust in you cause you took the blame for me
5.	Salvation 04:13	lyrics	buy track
When the day has reached it's darkest The sun will rise again No condemnation We are set free from this flame We have redemption MY SALVATION Through your blood You justify me You are my hope You give me strength You captivate me You make me whole You lift the weight When you're lost inside confusion With faith you'll find a way Open up your heart, you'll find the meaning Behind your pain We have redemption MY SALVATION Through your blood You justify me You are my hope You give me strength You captivate me You make me whole You lift the weight ♫ Cool guitar solo ♫ You justify me You are my hope You give me strength You captivate me You make me whole You lift the weight We're the weak, we're the bruised We're the faint We are the broken We're nothing without grace But inside us all lives the truth Obtained by faith Open up your heart, embrace this love We are saved
6.	More Than This 05:49	lyrics	buy track
Have you ever felt your world come crashing down around you? Weighed down by every single breath, the pain is overwhelming Have you ever thought that life just seems to have no meaning? Counting every hour in the day, always feeling the same Fear not for you are not alone Raise your head and your heart Embrace this life with open arms There's more than this This is not the end, just the end of what we know Time is all we have, completely out of our control So what will it mean when this hourglass is gone? Have you ever felt like no one understands you? Fighting this battle by yourself, it's hard to see things clearly Have you ever felt like throwing in just what you strive for? Every day just seems the same, never willing to change Fear not for you are not alone Raise your head and your heart Embrace this life with open arms There's more than this This is not the end, just the end of what we know Time is all we have, completely out of our control So what will it mean when this hourglass is gone? Here I am I offer this heart to you Lift this burden Save me from myself Don't let this time dictate your life Everything you see is temporary Only through death can we truly be born
