Flyleaf : New Horizons
Lyrics
1. FIRE FIRE
Almost thought we made it home,
But we don't know this place at all,
That's enough now dry your tears
It's been a long eleven years
Fire, fire, fire!
Fire from the tongues of liars,
You're ashamed of where you're from,
Crying 'cause your father's drunk
We can't die because we're young
At least that's what we heard in a song
Fire, fire, fire!
Fire from the tongues of liars,
Fire, fire, fire!
Fire from the tongues of liars
You're ashamed of what you've done,
Crying 'cause your father's wrong
Trying to be something new,
You'll feel that you were something to prove
What you confuse for glory's fire
Is fire from the tongues of liars.
What you confuse for glory's fire
Is fire from the tongues of liars.
Oh send your rain
Fire, fire, fire!
Fire from the tongues of liars,
(oh send your rain)
Fire, fire, fire!
Fire from the tongues of liars
(oh send your rain)
Fire, fire, fire!
Fire from the tongues of liars,
(oh send your rain)
Fire, fire, fire!
Fire from the tongues of liars
You're afraid of who you are (you're ashamed of where you're from)
Crying 'cause your father's gone (fire from the tongues of liars)
Dreaming 'til you hit the truth (we can't die because we're young)
You'll find that you've nothing to lose (fire from the tongues of liars)
You'll find that you've nothing to prove.
2. NEW HORIZONS
So you're tired but you're alive
So open up your eyes
And you can get your sleep when you are dead
Kill the clock inside your head
Bring your normalcy to the edge
And watch it drown in new horizons
New horizons
You said I'd only have to wait until I die
And that's in no time
How did we come to thinking this was funny?
Cheering and laughing at the dying
While we're riding the line in You
[Chorus:]
Wait
You said I'd only have to wait until I die
(New horizon)
There is no such thing as time
Inside this moment no sun rising
Wait until I fly
(New horizon)
Wait until I fly
(New horizon)
[Bridge:]
Life floods in with a conquest
Life floods in with a new quest
He's a voice for the voiceless
And a song for the soulless
Life floods in
[Chorus:]
Wait
You said I'd only have to wait until I die
(New horizon)
There is no such thing as time
Inside this moment no sun rising
Wait until I fly
(New horizon)
Wait until I fly
(New horizon)
When the times keep going wrong and we go right
When the times keep going wrong and we go right
[Chorus:]
Wait
You said I'd only have to wait until I die
(New horizon)
There is no such thing as time
Inside this moment no sun rising
Wait until I fly
(New horizon)
Ah!
(Wait until I fly, new horizon)
We need you here!
(Wait until I fly, new horizon)
There is no such thing as time
Inside this moment no sun rising
Wait until I fly
When the times keep going wrong and we go right
We go right
3. CALL YOU OUT
How can you act like you know
When all you know is to lie?
Another truth to expose,
Freedom will capture their eyes.
We find this truth
We fight. You lose.
Your time’s up now.
That’s enough now.
Shut up, get out!
Truth called you out.
I know this language of yours --
I used to speak it so well.
A fire meant to be pure
Is now the fire of Hell.
It is written
Long before you.
Your time’s up now.
That’s enough now.
Shut up, get out!
Truth called you out.
I hear your claims,
And I know your name;
I hear your claims,
And I know your name:
Liar.
Liar.
Your time’s up now.
That’s enough now.
Shut up, get out!
Truth called you out.
Your time’s up now.
That’s enough now.
Shut up, get out!
Truth called you out.
4. CAGE ON THE GROUND
Another dreamer steps onto the stage
He sings his hope and his fear and his rage
As the applause from the crowd start to fade
He hears them swallow the key to his cage
Welcome to the machine
It's a currency generator
And then it's a guillotine
A mirror held up to your own behavior
I'm gonna take my bow
And disappear into the sound
I'm leaving my cage on the ground
When I take my bow
I'm watching it burn to the ground
See my feet flying up through the clouds
The dreamer dances inside of his cage
All his music and words are the same
But in the moment he exits the stage
You hear him whisper a prayer for the flames
Welcome to the machine
It's a currency generator
And then it's a guillotine
A mirror held up to your own behavior
I'm gonna take my bow
And disappear into the sound
I'm leaving my cage on the ground
When I take my bow
I'm watching it burn to the ground
See my feet flying up through the clouds
When they distinguish your name
It may extinguish your flame
I'm gonna take my bow
And disappear into the sound
I'm leaving my cage on the ground
When I take my bow
I'm watching it burn to the ground
See my feet flying up through the clouds
One day distinguish your name (I'm leaving my cage on the ground)
It may extinguish your flame (I'm leaving my cage on the ground)
So trade those ashes for a crown
5. GREAT LOVE
Great love setting the world on fire
I am in awe of who You are
And it's Your love I'm living for
Can't you feel I'm drawing near
The place that broke your heart
Cut up and scarred
The dawn is breaking
My body's shaking
Oh, the secret memories you keep
Ignoring so that you can sleep
I'm facing what you won't tonight
The dawn is breaking
My body's shaking
Great love setting the world on fire
I am in awe of who You are
And it's Your love I'm living for
Great love oh wake me up inside
You are the one I'm looking for
And I am Yours forevermore
There I was awaiting death for you
And all I did was love you too
I'm facing what you won't tonight
The dawn is breaking
My body's shaking
Great love setting the world on fire
I am in awe of who You are
And it's Your love I'm living for
Great love oh wake me up inside
You are the one I'm looking for
And I am Yours forevermore
There I was awaiting death for you
And all I did was love you too
Great love setting the world on fire
I am in awe of who You are
And it's Your love I'm living for
Great love oh wake me up inside
You are the one I'm looking for
And I am Yours forevermore
You are the one I'm looking for
And I am Yours forevermore
And I am Yours forevermore
6. BURY YOUR HEART
Gold, gold, bones, bones
Under platinum headstones
Gold, gold, bones, bones
Under platinum headstones
You're so cold as you sit there alone
Selling your bright ideas
And paying someone to answer your phone
So this is life,
Come home to kids and wife
After a day of twisting the knife
'Til you get yours
There's blood on the tracks again.
Do you buy, buy what you're selling them?
You know it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart
I hate to see you drown in a sea of bills
Where did you bury all that
Precious, precious
Gold, gold, bones, bones
Under platinum headstones
Gold, gold, bones, bones
Under platinum headstones
You build empires, airplanes
And smog coated spires
Up to the last blank page
When the wildfires rage on the hills
There's blood on the tracks again.
Do you buy, buy what you're selling them?
You know it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart
I hate to see you drown in a sea of bills
Where did you bury, did you bury
Take my hand
Let's leave this place
Tonight we'll need our souls
And not that...
Gold, gold, bones, bones
And all that worthless
Gold, gold, bones, bones
And all that useless...
There's blood on the tracks again.
Do you buy, buy what you're selling them?
You know it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart
I hate to see you drown in a sea of bills
Where did you bury all that
Precious, precious...
Gold, gold, bones, bones
Under platinum headstones
Gold, gold, bones, bones
And all that worthless
Gold, gold, bones, bones
And all that useless
Gold, gold, bones, bones
Where did you bury your heart?
7. FREEDOM
Oh, freedom
This is for your freedom
Oh, freedom
This is for your freedom
Til the road unwinds from the earth
And the world begins in reverse
Feel the peace glowing so bright in my skull
As you wrap around blankets of words
Wrap around blankets of words
Oh, freedom
This is for your freedom
Oh, freedom
This is for your freedom
Bleeding dry the promise of worth
Knowing you were meant for this thirst
Drink it in slowly while life puts a heart in you
Weaving new blankets of words
Weaving new blankets of words
Oh, freedom
This is for your freedom
Oh, freedom
This is for your freedom
Live in your freedom
Die in your freedom
Til the road unwinds from the earth
And the world begins in reverse
Feel the peace glowing so bright in my skull
As you wrap around blankets of words
Wrap around blankets of words
Wrap around blankets of words
Oh, freedom
Oh, freedom
Blankets of words, words, words
8. SAVING GRACE
Pleading cause we prayed for peace tonight
Bleeding cause you knew the fight was right
Take my hand, we're almost home
We can see the fire glow
Save me grace
I'm sick of saving face
Will You hold me close?
You're all I want to know
Anymore
Wake me up with patience I don't know
Call me by a name that I love
Take my hand, we're almost home
We can see the fire glow
Save me grace
I'm sick of saving face
Will You hold me close?
You're all I want to know
Desperate love has got me where You want
I surrender
Take us to the place we can start
Happy ever after
Desperate love has got me where You want
I surrender
Take us to the place we can start
Happy ever after
Happy ever after
Save me grace
I'm sick of saving face
Will You hold me close?
You're all I want to know
Save me grace
I'm sick of saving face
Will You hold me close?
You're all I want to know
Anymore
9. STAND
Breathe on these bones
Breathe on these bones
Breathe on these bones
Find there's no need to hide
The time has come to stand and fight
Save the world
And save that girl
From enemies unseen
Our hands will
Bleed for children unborn
The mornings come and rumors are
The hope that lasts
Within our grasp
If we muster up the strength to grab it
Stand
Face the world with open hands
And tears
And these tired body's spirit perseveres
Remembering these wounds will heal
You are not
Alone in this
We will look ahead
At the dreams
That were laid
In our heart
And we can begin again
Stand
Face the world with open hands
And tears
And these tired body's spirit perseveres
Remembering these wounds will heal
You are not
Alone in this
How long did You bleed for us
How long did You bleed for us
Hold fast
Don't you look at the past
Because hope and love last
Beyond the end
Stand
Face the world with open hands
And tears
And these tired body's spirit perseveres
Remembering these wounds will heal
You are not
Alone in this
Stand
Face the world with open hands
And tears
And these tired body's spirit perseveres
Remembering these wounds will heal
You are not
Alone in this
You are not
Alone in this
10. GREEN HEART
Must, crush, destroy all that you've built
Thieves break in and steal your green heart
My red heart turns white as snow
Every new dawn yours could would you know
All you own is gonna burn
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Let's lose it all
Buy something beautiful
What next will you sell?
Peace while you sleep?
Small green heart
Engraved on a dollar bill
Tell me could it build a whole universe?
Can it speak or answer your prayers like you hope it will?
Let's lose it all
Buy something beautiful
What next will you sell?
Peace while you sleep?
All you own is gonna burn
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You're not just a body of flesh, bones and blood
You are alive, you're his precious child
And your soul will forever live on
Will forever live on
11. BROKEN WINGS
Thank you for being such a friend to me
Oh, I pray a friend for life
And have I ever told you how much you mean to me?
Oh, you're everything to me
And I am so lost for words
And I am so overwhelmed
Please don't go just yet
Can you stay a moment please?
We can dance together
We can dance forever
Under your stars tonight
And I am so overwhelmed
By a thousand broken wings.
A thousand broken wings.
So close your eyes but don't dream too deep
And please pass me some memories
And when I fall you're underneath
A thousand broken hearts
Carried by a thousand broken wings
A thousand broken wings
A thousand broken wings
A thousand voices singing reasons
Of understanding why it happens
A thousand voices singing reasons
Of understanding why it happens
A thousand voices singing reasons
Of understanding why it happens
12. MAMA
What makes you happy
What makes you smile
And when you smile please
Is it for real
I know you're not one
One to pretend
Even when I was a child
You grow up too fast
And have to be brave
Braver than most strong men
That I've ever seen
Sing your song mama
Sing it out loud
I wanna hear your voice
It's lovely sound
Little girl
You can come out now
The danger's all gone
You can come out
All that you've held
Was too much to hold
So let it all go now
And you will become gold
Sing your song mama
Sing it out loud
I wanna hear your voice
It's lovely sound
Sing your song mama
Sing it out loud
Dance freely singing
You're beautiful now
Laughter and tears
Gracing your face
The music of your strength
Held up this place
Your daddy's right here now
You can let go
He's holding it all now
And healing your soul
Sing your song mama
Sing it out loud
I wanna hear your voice
It's lovely sound
Sing your song mama
Sing it out loud
Dance freely singing
You're beautiful know
There's something
I'm trying to tell you and
I've tried to tell you before and
Each time that I profess it
It just leaves me wanting more and
I think you are beautiful
And I'm proud of you
What I'm trying to say is
I love you
I love you
Almost thought we made it home,
But we don't know this place at all,
That's enough now dry your tears
It's been a long eleven years
Fire, fire, fire!

I wanna hear your voice
It's lovely sound
Sing your song mama
Sing it out loud
Dance freely singing
You're beautiful know
There's something
I'm trying to tell you and
I've tried to tell you before and
Each time that I profess it
It just leaves me wanting more and
I think you are beautiful
And I'm proud of you
What I'm trying to say is
I love you
I love you
