1. MOROS

I've been waiting, waiting to see your face again
I've been searching, I've been searching to find the light again

You don't know me
No, no, no, no!
You don't know me
I can't shake the thought that I might be
The only one who feels like this
I am alone
These words feel like a suicide note
I'm just hanging here by my throat
So Savior, oh please show Yourself and save me
Save me from myself
I am calling out Your name, please hear my voice

And I just need to see the light again
Stuck inside this hole and I can't ever win
When will I see your face again?

Why am I always stuck in the dark?
The branches in my mind continue to grow
It seems I've lost all self-control
Surely I'll hang here all alone
You don't know what its like to be me
You don't know me
I thought of killing myself to feel closer to you

And I just need to see the light again
Stuck inside this hole and I can't ever win
When will I see your face again?
My mind is racing, I can't stop shaking
There's a void inside my chest
And I've been thinking, it keeps me drinking
When will I find some rest?

Wake up oh, sleeper
Rise from the dead
And Christ will shine on you
This is my resurrection

Fear not, for I am with you
Do not be dismayed
For I am your God
I will strengthen you
I will uphold you
With my righteous right hand

I just need to see the light again
Stuck inside this hole and I can't ever win
When will I see Your face again? (face again)
My mind is racing, I can't stop shaking
There's a void inside my chest
And I've been thinking, It keeps me drinking
When will I find some rest?
When will I find, when will I find some rest?
What will I find, what will I find?

Wake me up, I'm trapped inside my head
Wake me up, show me Your face!


2. SHARKS

This is our stand
This is our stand for the good fight
This is the good fight

We are believers
Stand strong, the pain of persecution won't last long
Believers, stand strong!
Sing along if this is where you belong
I love the struggle, the scars that shape me
The persecution only confirms our plan
I built my faith on broken teeth, speaking the truth through my thick and thin history

This is my motivation, hasty remarks from your ignorant mouth!
This is my motivation, separation from this hateful world!

My God, my God, please give me the words to say
You are the answer I needed
My God, my God, they can't take this away from me
You can't take this from me
You'll pull me down
You'll never watch me drown
My God, my God, please give me the words to say
You'll never pull me down!

This is a good fight

I've always known, I've always known
I know they hate me
I know, I know
I know they hate, me
Say what you want, say what you will
We're standing still

I've been knocked down but not destroyed
I still believe, I still believe this is something worth fighting for
This is something worth fighting for
Everything they have put me through
Through the bitterness and rage that feeds inside
No matter what, stand up for what's right
Forgive, forget, this is the good fight!

My God, my God, please give me the words to say
You are the answer I needed
My God, my God, they can't take this away from me
You can't take this from me
You'll pull me down
You'll never watch me drown
My God, my God, please give me the words to say
You'll never pull me down!

No matter what is said and done
Through thick and thin
Your words won't break the skin
Stand up for what you believe in!
Stand firm speak loud
I will always be proud

I will learn to forgive and forget
Forgive and forget
This is the answer I needed


3. THE DAHLIA DISEASE

What is the price of ambition?
Fearful and faithless vices of man
The cost of glory left us hollow and broken
Woe and sorrow
This isn't meant to be
This isn't meant for me

Fame is a fallacy!

Today's idols and icons
Continue to forget
Where credit is due
You continue to forget where credit due
God make an example of this man

I have a confession
I have always wanted more
More money, more power, more me, I need!
I have always wanted more!
More fame, more girls, more pride, to feed!
I keep coming back for more

I've counted more money than memories
Gambled with sin and prosperity
You can't buy...
Salvation!
Salvation!

When did greed become the fuel?

I have a confession
I have always wanted more
More money, more power, more me, I need!
I have always wanted more!
More fame, more girls, more pride, to feed!
I keep coming back for more

More money, more power, more me, I need!
I have always wanted more!
More fame, more girls, more pride, to feed!
I keep coming back for more

This is not the end of me
What is the price I'm willing to pay?
This is not the end of me!

No money, no power. You're all I need!
I have always wanted more
No fame, no girls. It's not the life for me
I keep coming back for more

Surrender!
What is the price that you're willing to pay?


4. DOUBT//FULL

I think it's time. I think it's time to come clean
This disbelief is killing me
Oh God, bring me back to life
Can I believe?
How can I believe in things unseen?
How could a man-made book be any proof to me?
This world is broken and corrupt
I can't feel grace, hope, or love
None of this seems to make sense to me
I'm losing. I'm failing. I think I've lost it all
I'm losing it all. I try to fight this but fall and lost it all. I lost it all
I'm searching for faith but I can't feel your grace
So where are you? I can't find you!
Where are you? The faithful
Where are you? I need you
Can I believe?
I'm not perfect
I feel worthless
Why would you ever save a wretch like me?
Can I believe?
How could one man's blood ever keep me clean?
No substance. No soul. No atlas. No home
I'm dead inside
Can you even tell?
These questions burn in me:
Why send a good man to hell?
Why?! Why is this world doomed to burn?
Burn!

There must be something more. If truth exists, it must exist beyond ourselves
I'm losing it all. I try to fight this but fall and lost it all. I lost it all
I'm searching for faith but I can't feel your grace
So where are you? I can't find you!
Where are you?
There must be something more
Where are you?
I need you
I need a revival
I can't find you
I need a revival
I will never deny my faith in the unseen
I will always believe
I will never again fill my head with doubt, my savior
Christ, cast these demons out!
It's time I come clean
No questions could ever separate you and me


5. THE WILL

God!

I never thought it would be this hard, so hard
To drown out, to drown out how I feel
To see through, to see through my emotions

Then I heard your call
But is this for me?

I'm questioning everything, everything
Is this it for me?
Is this what I'm supposed to be?

I can't give up on the boy who made a promise two years ago
But how could anyone love a selfish ego driven self titled man
This is me

See, I made a promise, to chase these dreams
To be what I'm called to be
God, is this your will
Is this what you have for me?

I'm questioning everything, everything
Is this it for me?
Is this what I'm supposed to be?
I'm questioning everything, everything
Is this it for me?
Is this what I'm supposed to be?

What I wanted and what I needed
Are completly different things
Why pick and choose?
Why pick and choose, pick and choose?

Creator, I'm leaving this all behind
Creator, by God the voices have fled my mind
What will remain when I'm gone?
Heaven's songs about my faith in God
I can't see now where my dream lives

This is our prayer
Is this your will, God?
This is our prayer
Is this your the will you have for us?
This is our prayer
Is this your will, God?
This is our prayer
Is this your the will you have for us?
This is our prayer
Is this your will, God?
This is our prayer
Is this your the will you have for us?


6. THE KIDNEY

The doctors told my mother not a chance of survival
I've always told my father everything will be all right
Years and years go by and am living with the sickness
It's all a matter of time till my organ shows it's weakness
Just hold on just hold on

If I made home then why do I feel so empty?
A part of me
A part of me is not working
Truth in souls I feeling so lonely tell me just hold on
If I made home then why does my body hate me?

(Why does my body hate me?)

What a live I'm living
A place where no one is giving
I am tired of this people giving lies rather than lives
Just hold on just hold on

If I made home then why do I feel so empty?
A part of me
A part of me is not working
Truth in souls I feeling so lonely tell me just hold on
If I made home then why does my body hate me?

I am sick and sick of being sick
Is this the way the story ends?
I am sick and sick of being sick
Is this the way the story ends?
(Is this the way the story ends?)
I am sick and sick of being sick
This can't this can't be how it ends
Please save
Me once again
I am sick and sick of being sick
This can't this can't be how it ends
Please save
Me once again
If I made home then why do I feel so empty?
A part of me
A part of me is not working
Truth in souls I feeling so lonely tell me just hold on
If I made home then why does my body hate me
