prelude

[voice over]
have you come to a place in your life,
where you have concluded
that your life is better
when God is fully in control
and not you?
have you come to that place yet?
how many of you are trying to control your life?
itโ€™s coming to the point,
say you know what
i need to surrender to my maker
and my creator
i need to let Him have control
have you come to that place yet?


intro

flesh of my flesh
we have broken
every good thing He bestowed
blame the serpent
blame the poison
blame the one who made us know
bone of my bone
my heartโ€™s broken
dying as our children grow
searching elsewhere
for a garden
taking warmth in catacombs
like an insect, weโ€™ll go crawling
back to the dirt we come from
please forgive us of our trespass
please, Lord Father, bring us home
burn the garden
flood the waters
curse that soil, break the stone
bring down heaven, holy fire
bring your judgment, bring your throne
like an insect, weโ€™ll go crawling
back to the dirt we come from
please forgive us of our trespass
please, Lord Father, bring us home


memory

your oxygen will slowly fade
then everyone forgets your name
left in dirt and disarray
but you are welcome to my grave
forever burn
youโ€™ll never learn
of who I am
my memory
is left empty
youโ€™ll never see
youโ€™ll never see
forever burn
youโ€™ll never learn
of who I am
my memory
for all to see
my memory
my memory


daydream

i can feel my world ever-crushing
hospital elevators never rushing
empty syncopated endless nothings
how can my heart go on
if itโ€™s not pumping blood?
iโ€™m nothing, itโ€™s nothing
iโ€™m okay, i promise
just keep trusting God,
iโ€™m nothing, itโ€™s nothing
what is going on?
somebody tell me something now
and why donโ€™t you daydream darling
in fluorescent lights, iโ€™ll take you home
iโ€™ll take you home
i canโ€™t help but think this might be
it might be
it might be
all my fault
itโ€™s all my fault
i can feel my world ever-crushing
hospital elevators never rushing
empty syncopated endless nothings
how can my heart go on
if itโ€™s not pumping blood?
iโ€™m nothing, itโ€™s nothing
iโ€™m okay, i promise
just keep trusting God,
iโ€™m nothing, itโ€™s nothing
what is going on?
somebody tell me something now
i remember the chemicals they had you on
nearly took you home
nearly took you home
i canโ€™t help but think this might be
it might be
it might be
all my fault
itโ€™s all my fault
i can feel my world ever-crushing
hospital elevators never rushing
empty syncopated endless nothings
how can my heart go on
if itโ€™s not pumping blood?
iโ€™m nothing, itโ€™s nothing
iโ€™m okay, i promise
just keep trusting God,
iโ€™m nothing, itโ€™s nothing
what is going on?
somebody tell me something now
itโ€™s all my fault
all my fault
i think it
it might be
it might be
it might be
itโ€™s all my fault


love you forever

i love you
i love you
i love you
forever
i love you
for always
as long as
iโ€™m living
i love you
[voice over]
iโ€™m so sorry
i donโ€™t see why
iโ€™m sorry i screwed up
sometimes it just happens
that doesnโ€™t mean i donโ€™t care about you


desolate

everything as before
tested fate, lead ashore
dissipating, never more
desolate, my free will
break my legs, let me heal
spill my blood, have your fill
desolate, my free will
break my legs, let me heal
spill my blood, have your fill
i am not just your son
i am like everyone
covenant, came undone
beyond chains, i am free
echoing eternally
saved by you, perpetually


how we disappear

please remember everything
as we fade to nameless beings
crashing waves or crashing cars
chemical sedation scars
barely learned to keep a smile
barely even stayed awhile
everything is almost near
this is how we disappear
broken and famous
desperate and nameless
broken and famous
desperate and nameless
[voice over]
and thereโ€™s only one person to be congratulated
when weโ€™ve chosen to be restored, to normality
our redeemer, creator, savior, and Lord
all prevailing, unchanging precious name
our Lord, our life, forever, amen
forever famous
never be nameless
you should erase us
but you reclaimed us
raise your glasses high
to your communion wine
we can disappear
in His atmosphere
and now the endless void
takes a hold of us
your eternity
thereโ€™s no misery
forever famous
never be nameless
we can disappear
in your atmosphere
raise your glasses high
to your communion wine
i could disappear
in your atmosphere


ascend with me

ascend with me
everything
can you hear the angels?
i did not
amount to anything
can you hear the devil?
ascend with me
darling, you
can you see the heavens?
take away
everything
