1. HYPOCRITE

(I feel their eyes upon my skin; feels like they look so deep within)

I feel their eyes upon my skin; feels like they look so deep within
I'm breaking down, feels like I'm losing ground
They think cause I am full of faith, I must be perfect everyday
But they don't understand, I'm just a man, held in your hands

But what say
But what say you
But what say you
God, please tear me down, and let me break my crown
'Cause then when I bleed out, Your blood can fill me up again
Well I want to become nothing (to become nothing)
I want to become nothing so you can be everything

(When they see me then they see you)

When they see me then they see you
I pray your love comes shining through
What those hands hide
I think you're significantly above the rest
I find with time, I change my mind
I know your plans are so divine
Retrace my steps, they always lead back to you

But what say
But what say you
But what say you
God, please tear me down, and let me break my crown
Cause then when I bleed out, your blood can fill me up again
Well I want to become nothing
I want to become nothing, so you can be everything

(Be everything, be everything, everything)

My old friend makes me sick
And I can't handle this
Insufficient on my own
Jesus, take me home (take me home)

God please tear me down, and let me break my crown.
Cause then when I bleed out Your blood can fill me up again.
Well, I want to become nothing.
Well, I want to become nothing so you can be everything.
So you can be everything.
Oh my God, be everything.


2. DELIVERANCE

Its time for bed. Go to sleep little ones.
Rest your head. Daddy loves you, he loves you.
The worlds asleep, but there's no sleep for me.
I feel the nudge, to fill my veins with these drugs.

I, I hate myself, for who I am, for what I've done.
I just need some deliverance. Cause I hate myself, for who I am, for what I've done.
I just need some deliverance.

(Just need some deliverance.)

I'm so afraid, cause this addiction won't break.
It takes and takes. And leaves me nothing, with nothing.
I feel alone. I feel there's nobody out there. I'm all alone.
I could just end this right here.

'Cause I, hate myself, for who I am, for what I've done.
I just need some deliverance. Cause I, hate myself, for who I am, for what I've done.
I just need some deliverance.

(And then one day I met you and you took it all away)

I, no longer hate myself, for who I am, and the things I've done.
Jesus you're my deliverance.
'Cause I, no longer hate myself, for who I am, and for the things I've done.
Jesus you're my deliverance.
Oh, Jesus you're my deliverance.
You came down.
Jesus you're my deliverance.
Deliverance


3. FROM DEATH LIFE COMES

You can feel it in your chest
Making you weak, taking your breath
Can you feel Him?
As the sweat runs down your face
Inside your veins you feel Him racing for your soul
Then your body starts to shake as your spirit now awakens to new life
You're almost there
Your shackles fall
These broken walls crumble down beneath you
Your life is now beneath you

From death life comes
I need You
I breathe You
I live You
I love You

Now it's time for you to go back into the scum from which you came
'Cause there's people in this world who have yet to hear the word of God proclaimed
With the sickness all around you
And it feels like its surrounding from within
There's one way out
This grenade
God is its name
To blow away your enemies
Just pull the pin
From death life comes


4. WHERE WE ARE

Fact or fiction
The wrong depiction
Is given of you
By those who just try to mix the word and their view
So they can start their own religion
And get on television
While a million people listen
And say "Oh, I had a vision!
God told me to tell you to send me your money
So then I can pray for you too
But if you don't you'll just stay all broken alone
With no where to go
And no more place to call home
Look at your life, your wife
Your kids, your home, and your car
Just send me ten bucks a month or
God will owe you ten times more."
What a joke
These people, they're crooks in disguises
They make their living by pulling shades over people's eyelids
It's time for us to stand up
To look around and believe
The only Christ that they see is in the lives of you and me
Let's light their fires

Only you can change me
I can't change myself
I know because I've tried so many times

Where we are
Where we've gone
Where we are
Where we've gone
Is nowhere I want to be

'Cause I'm so sick of this,
It's time the world knows how we feel
I said its time to break the box and let the truth be revealed
Unconcealed and exposed let all the fake hit the floor
And then rise from the ashes generation unknown
I'm talking men and women
Finally taking a stand
Instead of taking each others hands and
Conquering many lands
If you agree stand up and sing it with me
Our generation raise up to rock and get free

I've said this a million times before
I'll say it a million times more
Because there's nothing new under the sun

I've said this a million times before
I'll say it a million times more
Because there's nothing new under the sun
For me, for me

Only you can change me
I can't change myself
I know because Ive tried so many times

Where we are
Where we've gone
Is nowhere
Where we are
Where we've gone
Is nowhere I want to be
Oh no, it's nowhere that I want to be
So I try
So I try

Where we are
Where we've gone
Where we are
Where we've gone
Is nowhere I want to be
Oh no, it's nowhere I want to be


5. WRONG AND RIGHT

In all these things
What would you say
We're all in a lie
Are rarely seen
Where lust and pride
Rule these nations streets
And people say
That what makes life sweet

But when we're wrong were right
When we're right were wrong
When will we learn?
When we're wrong we're right
When we're right we're wrong
When will we learn?
God, it's you we need

We live out lives
Living for ourselves
But the judge will come
And for some there's hell
We must learn to learn
We must learn to love
To put others first
And put God above it all

'Cause when we're wrong were right
When we're right were wrong
When will we learn?
When we're wrong we're right
When we're right we're wrong
When will we learn?
God, it's you we need
It's you we need

We live our lives living this lie
We fill the emptiness inside
When will we learn
You want the truth? Lay down your pride
Don't look inside; that's who is a lie
Look to Jesus Christ

When we're wrong we're right
When we're right we're wrong
When will we learn?
Oh, God, when will we
When we're wrong we're right
When we're right we're wrong
When will we learn
Because when we're wrong, right
Right, wrong
When will we
Oh, God, when will we
When we're wrong we're right
When we're right, wrong
When will we learn
That God, it's you we need


6. REDEMPTION

I see you chase these things
You chase your broken dreams
And you are left alone unsatisfied
Your lost within your creed
Tore down in the streets
And nothing you've learned
Nothing you've gained can erase your pain

It leaves me there alone
With no where left to go
So now I'm searching and planning
I must find a way to get back inside my own
It leaves me there alone
Broken and so cold
But now I sing of love I've never known

How can I explain
Exactly what I mean
Its like trying to show color to a blind man
You look through shaded eyes
You cant define the lines
So don't look inside sometimes to see you must close your eyes

It leaves me there alone
With no where left to go
So now I'm searching and planning
I must find a way to get back inside my own
It leaves me there alone
Broken and so cold
But now I sing of love I've never known

How can I explain
Like trying to show
You look through shaded eyes
You cant define the lines
So don't look inside sometimes to see you must close your eyes

It leaves me there alone
With no where left to go
So now I'm searching and planning
I must find a way to get back inside my own
It leaves me there alone
Broken and so cold
But now I sing of love I've never known
Never known


7. MARTYR'S THEME

God, I can't believe this is how
I'm going to go down
I've wasted my life without your guide
Now I'm crying out for You
Yea, Yea, Yea

So with my last breath, I'm gonna scream
Of my Savior's love for me
Now I'm reaching out, and I know that You
You are reaching out for me
Yea, Yea, Yea

If I'm gonna fall I will fall for you
Is this what you feel, is this what you felt
You love me in life I will love you in death
I'll see You in one moment's breath
One moment's breath

(Now some here)
Now some here would say to lie it away
And just hide the truth inside
But if I deny Him, then He denies me
And it's all over
Again, yea, yea, yea

I drop to my knees, these demons telling me
That my death is all in vain
But I will not bow to them, I will walk over them
And they'll not defile me
Again, again, again

If I'm gonna fall I will fall for You
Is this what You feel is this what You felt
You love me in life I will love you in death
I'll see You in one moments breath
In one moment's breath

If I'm gonna fall I will fall for You
One moments breath
If I'm gonna fall I will fall for You
You and You alone

(Jesus, be with me)
If I'm gonna fall I will fall for You
For You and You alone
Is this what You feel is this what You felt
That day upon your cross
You love me in life I will love You in death
Love You in my death
I'll see you in one moment's breath
In one moments breath


8. BREAKING AWAY

Rock of ages coming to this place
And He is gonna break you down
You can run and you can hide
But just like me one day you will be found
You will be found, well alright

Just close your eyes shut your mouth
Just let your pride fall down
Let it all fall down
Fall beneath the ground
We all think that we are really something great
Really something great
But we're all nothing
We're nothing

And we say break, break rock
We all say break, break rock
I don't know why I act this way
So I close my eyes and I pray until the day
I am seeing You
I am hearing You
I believe in You

Now I'm breaking away
I don't know why I act this way
So I close my eyes and I pray until the day
I believe in You
I am seeing You
I am hearing You
Now I'm breaking away
Breaking away

Over and over again I fall down on my knees
Asking my God to please come and save me
I did run and I did hide
But just like me one day he'll get inside
He'll get inside
And we say break, break rock
We all say break, break rock

I don't know why I act this way
So I close my eyes and I pray until the day
I am seeing You
I am hearing You
I believe in You
Now I'm breaking away
I don't know why I act this way
So I close my eyes


9. MESSED UP

It's all messed up
It's all messed up
It's all messed up
Even though I try it's all messed up inside
It's all messed up
Even though I try it's all messed up inside
Even though I try
Even though I try it's all messed up inside
Even though we try

I think I was 7 years old
Laying on my bed so late at night
Ran away from my dad just wanted to fight
But I grew up in this broken home
And this is all the love that I have ever known
My mom was used to getting smacked around
My dad he never loved and never loved himself
I wish before that I'd of known
That God could heal my broken home

As I sleep the sleep of death
God open my eyes
As I sleep the sleep of pain
God open my mind
As I sleep the sleep of death
I run to your side
As I sleep the sleep of pain
Then I'll never die
Then I'll never die
'Cause I don't want to hurt anymore

My, my, my, my kid sister she always stayed at home
She couldn't go to school cause shed always break the rules
And I could never figure out
Why she would hang around with all those guys I knew
One day shed get in trouble and shovin' out
One day she calls me up
She says she met a scrub
And he comes home ever night on the rock
Figure out what you want
'Cause I know that he's not
Give your life up to God
And the bottle wont be your home
My God is calling you home
Girl your never alone

As I sleep the sleep of death
God open my eyes
As I sleep the sleep of pain
God open my mind
As I sleep the sleep of death
I run to your side
As I sleep the sleep of pain
Then I'll never die
Then I'll never die
'Cause I don't want to hurt anymore

Rush the gates don't hesitate
The enemy waits
To enrage and cage and enslave those
That call him the one
God of today
God of the hour
Our strong tower
Break down the enemies wicked power
So stay strong stand tough
Never never let them know that you've had enough
The moment you do the moment your done
Remember son
Forever look
Forever look
Never look back
Don't ever look in my eyes
Look through my eyes
Look through my eyes

As I sleep the sleep of death
God open my eyes
As I sleep the sleep of pain
God open my mind
As I sleep the sleep of death
I run to your side
As I sleep the sleep of pain
Then I'll never die
Then I'll never die
'Cause I don't want to hurt anymore


10. UNTIL WE'RE DEAD

This is my question
This is my question
I just want to know
Why does God let things go on in this world
Things so sick that I want to leave
And just burn it all behind me
How much worse can this get
That he won't stop 'till were dead
And the little truth that is left
Is being twisted by the press
10 million people know my name
My judgment shouldn't be the same
Yes I murder, you know I do
But I'm not the same as you
I'll give my money to the system
They'll let me walk free as a victim
They say murder is a sickness
And killing is just a symptom

You let us fall so far
'Till we turn and reach out to you
But we'll never fall so far
That He can't save us again

Tolerance tolerance
Accept me how I am
And if you don't accept me
Then you hate me
So off with your head
God bless America
Land of the free
And home of the depraved
Kind of makes me wonder
How long God will let this go on
In this land of decay

You let us fall so far
'Till we turn and reach out to you
But we'll never fall so far
That He can't save us again

He'll let us fall so far
Till we turn and reach out to him
But we'll never fall so far
That He can't save us again

Just remember in the strangest of days
God still works and moves
And he still will use you and me
No matter how unworthy
Because we're all unworthy
