lyrics

Recessed lovers
Are a product of plunder
The abortion of fear
Heralds great posture
How the do prophets
Profit from your pockets?

I cant look away
I cant find away
I cant see away

There's got to be a reason for this
But I'm asleep and will i ever wake?
Take time to figure it out
I got to take time to figure it out
This pain wont last I have to bury the past
just move along to the next scene
Move along

I believe this vision was given to me
So I can see the fallen trilogy
Broken lovers standing tall
While the others beg and crawl

I see their pockets just fill up and pour out
They see a man who can fill them from the inside out
All it takes is just another cheque wrote out
Cash is fine, if not they'll blow all your brains out
You say you don't fear death?
Well then boy, lets get out those pliers
And see what your really made of!
How can a husband just beat on his loved one while she holds his hand?

And as I turn to start and run
My body naked
They raise their guns
Of guilt and shame
They know my name
You are the one
You've come undone
They steady their fingers
With me in sight.
The sun disappears
There's no more light
A staircase ahead of me
I take the flight
It seems never ending
There's something not right
The people approaching
As the call my name
You Outcast, You Straggler,
You Filthy, Wretched and Lame
Just pay our prophet
He will give you a name
One that is powerful
And free from shame
You'll always fit in
And you will never be shunned.
A life full of happiness, a life full of fun.
But i kept running and pressing ahead.
Stair by stair, I've got nothing left
No strength in my body
My feet start to fail
My enemies closing
Gnashing teeth as they wail
But in this moment
I began to cry out
To my Saviour
In whom I'm found
Suddenly the staircase
It came to an end
And there lie before me
A solution to mend
My back to the water
My enemies in sight
No longer a coward
I turn and fight
Speaking of love and forgiveness
And of the Father of Light
They vanished completely
Right out of my sight
The mist hit my face
At this point I knew
Leaning over the edge
I fell into You

Let this sea take me away from here
To a place of everlasting peace
You're the one I live for
You're the one
