Beloved (us) Album

the voices die in the distance.
the crying is faint.
the same fate overtakes them.
the sound rings in the midst.
better days will lie in wait.
so i'll endure this till you take me away.
holding close to your hands
never slipping though your grip.
the road is getting longer and i don't know if i can make it,
but i'll hold
hoping to get stronger all the while.
calling out,
let it pass.
let it drown with the water.
freedom from this place is found in you,
it's found in you.
i'll be home soon with the letter in my left hand.
i'll be home soon cause i'm coming home to you.
chasing the wind.
the light that you lead is only a shadow now,
but it's bright enough for me to lead you out.
so i'll take this until it fades.
until it falls,
until it breaks.
and i'll kiss it goodbye.
i'll kiss life goodbye,
this world goodbye.
i'll be home soon.
i will be home soon.

It's slowly maintaining now.
I tried to bring it back, but it's over somehow.
The static is silent, so I hear you're stable now,
Tired of progress, but only we can work it out.

It's slowly maintaining now.
Tried to bring it back, but it's over somehow.
The reality is you were never real at all,
Spinning in circles, just another programmed thought.

So we'll break off a piece of nothing
And take on the world, baby.
So we'll break off a piece of nothing
And take on the world.

And I'm finally letting go,
And I think that you should know,
And I'm finally letting go.
I think it's better for us both.

You and me,
We're gonna beat this down to the ground,
But let's run for now,
Let's run for now,
Let's run for now,
Let's run for now,
Let's go!

Run for now,
Run for now,
Run for now,
Run...for now...

only you can start this fire in my heart, set me ablaze tonight
cold no longer
one day my fight will be over, but for now i'm looking straight ahead
and it's all for you

so i'll let you rise, i'll let you rise in these bones
our eyes have grown dim finding no rest in ourselves
renew us o Lord, light the fire within
burn, renew this heart
burn, and rise from these ashes
burn, and cleanse these bones
burn, renew my heart cause i'll praise you
burn until the day that you will return
nothing more than to see through your eyes
i want nothing else but to see through your eyes
burn in my heart
take my heart, set me free, light my fire.

I made you promises,
But I want them back.
I gave you everything,
But you stabbed me in the back.

I finally figured out
That I can live without
The pain I feel inside.
I've opened up my eyes,
Begun to realize I
Trusted way too many lies.

It's time to pick up the pieces now.
Am I falling down?
Am I drowning out?
Am I the only one who sees things this way?
Well, I guess it goes to show.

Put me on my swing.
'Cause I can see the whole world from here
And I feel so alive.
Put me on my swing.
'Cause I can see the whole world from here
And I feel so alive.
Put me on my swing.
'Cause I can see the whole world from here
And I feel so alive.
Put me on my swing.
'Cause I can see the whole world from here
And I feel so alive.

After all was said and done,
(Missing out on me.)
More was said than done.

Put me on my swing,
'Cause I can see the whole world from here
And I feel so alive.
Put me on my swing.
'Cause I can see the whole world from here
And I feel so alive.

Missing...you're missing out on me,
Out on me, out on me,
Out on me baby, out on me,
Out on me...

Put me on my swing,
'Cause I can see the whole world from here
And I feel so alive.
Put me on my swing,
'Cause I can see the whole world from here
And I feel so alive,

And I'm waiting for you there,
For you to care.
(Put me on my swing,)
I can see it in your eyes,
('Cause I can see the whole world from here)
And I'm running, but not giving up,
(And I feel so alive.)
Just giving in for now,
'Cause I can't pretend it's all okay.

Missing...

The aftermath was better than I thought it would be,
But I closed my eyes
So I couldn't see what would become of it,
What would become of it, become of it.

The stars they burn bright in this evening sky,
And there's not a thing standing in my way tonight
And I promise you that we will make it out alive, out alive,
And I promise you that we will make it out alive, out alive.

We're just a little bit closer now,
We're just a little bit closer now.

The sea it holds me close,
Pushing against the hands that held us back,
That held us back,
Pushing against the hands that held us back.

Should we run away,
Or face the days we have before us,
Right through the barricades
Onto the shores below us?
Day and night our steps and paths are chosen for us.
Let's bury the past
Within the sand beneath us,
And I promise you
That you will never fall again,
Never fall again, never fall again,
And I promise you
That you will never fall again,
Never fall again, never fall again.

Day and night you hold me close,
Never letting go now.

emotionless, life stands still apart from all the rest
and your the only one who hears my voice
apoligies were spoken underneath the harvest trees
while our dreams fell down like autumn leaves.

(chorus)
it's getting hard to pick myself up off the ground this time
and your willingness never seems to change my mind
and i'm running into your arms again
reflecting that i should have put my trust in him

do remember november 22nd?
i could see your breath, but your heart was vacant
maybe this is what i need. some uncertainty,
but if i let it go i could be risking everything
there's no day like today. theres no day like today
your drifting far away and its tearing me, it's tearing me
it's tearing me apart

(chorus)
it's getting hard to pick myself up off the ground this time
and your willingness never seems to change my mind
and i'm running into your arms again
reflecting that i should have put my trust in him.
