Fireflight Album

This is for those who wait

Another day, another waiting game
A little different but it's still the same
I am here, but where's the one I'm longing for?
I'm having trouble feeling all alone
Will my heart ever find a home?
I want to hope but sometimes I just don't know
I know I'm not the only one

So we sing a lullaby to the lonely hearts tonight
Let it set your heart on fire, let it set you free
When you're fighting to believe
In a love that you can't see
Just know there is a purpose
For those who wait

I want to open up my eyes
I know that all I need is time
I'm growing stronger every single day
God, I'm going to lean into You now
Letting go of all my fear and doubt
I can't do this on my own so I'll give You control
I know I'm not the only one

The pressure makes us stronger
The struggle makes us hunger
The hard lessons make the difference
The pressure makes us stronger
The struggle makes us hunger
The hard lessons make the difference
And the difference makes it worth it

Seek and you will find, they say
but I've been looking everyday
for a way past this wall that's in front of my face.
I'm on hands and knees searching for my faith.

I know there's so much at stake
but I don't know if I can take one more pat on the back saying I'll be okay.
Can't you see me whole life is in disarray?

You've got me desperate.

I know You hear me,
Would You give me a sign?
Reel me in before I've fallen in line.
You've put me on a path I don't understand
I'm standing on a ledge waving my hands.

You've got me desperate (do You see me?)
Desperate (do You hear me?)
Desperate (will You help me?)
You've got me desperate.

I know You're my only hope
The only One who truly knows how it feels, what it's like when it all starts to fall
You're the One I can trust who hears when I call.

You've got me desperate.

I know You hear me,
Would You give me a sign?
Reel me in before I've fallen in line.
You've put me on a path I don't understand
I'm standing on a ledge waving my hands.

You've got me desperate (do You see me?)
Desperate (do You hear me?)
Desperate (will You help me?)
You've got me desperate.

Some things I'll never figure out
Until I let hope erase my doubt.

You've got me desperate.

I know You hear me,
Would You give me a sign?
Reel me in before I've fallen in line.
You've put me on a path I don't understand,
I'm standing on a ledge waving my hands.

You've got me desperate (do You see me?)
Desperate (do You hear me?)
Desperate (will You help me?)
You've got me desperate.

You've got me desperate. (Oh do You see me?)
Desperate (do You hear me?)
Desperate (will You help me?)
You've got me desperate!

Feeling solid
'Cause I have finally got my feet on the ground
Now You rescued me, You were gravity
I was upside down, down

I've got a fire in my eyes
I'm burning brighter than the sunlight
You orchestrated my escape
Now I'm awake
I feel alive for the first time
You ignite The fire in my eyes

Used to live my life
Locked up inside a room with no door before
You found a window, You broke it
And now I won't be contained anymore

Oh, I know You are
The reason I can breathe
Oh, I know You are
The reason I am free

I'm aching, transparent
Your eyes see right through me
I'm dependent and shaking
I'm falling to my knees

And I can't contain this
You're the only one I need
I'm hooked and I cannot hide it
Your love's controlling me

You're the core of my addiction
I want to live, want to lose myself in You
You're the heart of my obsession
I want to live, but I would die for You
I'm addicted

Impulsive, enraptured
This yearning's captured me
I'm determined, I'm not pretending
You are my destiny

I can feel the freedom
You're the only one I need
I'm alive and finally breathing
You're my recovery

God, I've waited for this day
I'll never run away
And You won't have to chase me

I'm addicted
I'm addicted to You

I've got this passion
It's something I can't describe
It's so electric
It's like I've just come alive
I feel this freedom
Now that my past is erased
I feel the healing
I found the meaning of grace
(I found grace)

If only you could see me yesterday
Who I used to be before the change
You'd see a broken heart
You'd see the battle scars
It's funny how words can't explain
How good it feels to finally break the chains
I'm not what I have done
I'm what I've overcome

I know I'll stumble
I know I'll still face defeat
These second chances will define me
So I'm moving forward
I'm standing on my two feet
I've got momentum
I've got someone saving me
(Got someone saving me)

I'll make mistakes and I might fall
But I won't break
I've got someone saving me

Seven days old in the ICU tonight Little baby boy
They don't want to have to say goodbye
Your mother's on the phone, your father's in the hall
Praying, "God save his life"

He sees you, He's near you
He knows your face
He knows your pain
He sees you, and He loves you
He knows your name
He knows your name

Four doors down
There's a man who just won't wake up
He crashed so hard
And the doctors want to pull the plug
Your wife is by your side, saying not tonight
Praying God will just show up

Maybe you're alone
In the corner of an empty house
Or maybe you're the one
No one notices in the crowd

I always thought I had it figured out
No need for the benefit of the doubt
I could never look beyond what
I could see I was in control and it was all about me
I'm so sick and tired
Of this selfish life... I want more

Reach up, reach out
This house is burning down
These walls we've built are caving in
Reach up, don't give up
We're standing on the ashes
With a clearer view and a new perspective

I can feel the hardness breaking up inside
Shattered by the tears falling from their eyes
I just want to push beyond the boundaries
Surrendering all control 'cause it's not about me
They're so sick and tired
Of our selfish lives... they need more

Reach up (we know they need us)
Reach out (and they're all around us)
This house is burning down
These walls we've built are caving in
Reach up (it's a new beginning)
Don't give up (with the love we're giving)
We're standing on the ashes
With a clearer view and a new perspective

We need to open up our eyes
See it written on their faces?
We are running out of time
Is there no one who will save them?
I'm reaching out

How many words are there to say?
But I still can't find a way
To tell you how you've captured me
And turned it all around
I want to write it down
I need to say it out loud
This force inside is driving me
And I can't hold it in
I know You're the only one
Who could help me finally open up
You created something new in me

You give me that feeling
A power I can believe in
The world around me disappears
(I know I'm completely changed)
You give me that feeling
I could smash straight through the ceiling
Fly until I reach the sun
(The ties that bind me come undone)
You give me that feeling

Your light, it shines so bright
It makes the day seem like the night
You chase away the shadows
And illuminate my path
I know You're the only one
Who could help me finally open up
You created something new in me

I always thought if someone knew the real me
They would turn away
But now I've found Your love completes me
And I'll never be the same

Hoping with each new day
I'm moving forward, I push the fear away
And I let go
'Cause I'm so through with barely hanging on
Leaving what's in the past behind
I come closer to crossing over the line
And I won't stop
Until I get what I've been fighting for
You've said it all before

Tell me again that I am strong
Tell me again that I won't fall
I need You here to fix me where I'm wrong
Take me beyond what I can see
Break me, make me believe
You have made me all I need to be

Knowing all that I can do is be open when You start to move
In my heart
And now my God, I finally hear Your voice
You've said it all before

Tell me again that I am strong
Tell me again that I won't fall
I need You here to fix me where I'm wrong
Take me beyond what I can see
Break me, make me believe
You have made me all I need to be

Oh

Who I am is all I've got

Oh

And I can't be who I am not anymore

Tell me again that I am strong
Tell me again that I won't fall
I need You here to fix me where I'm wrong
Take me beyond what I can see
Break me, make me believe
You have made me all I need to be

Oh
(I am strong, make me believe)

You have made me all I need to be

Oh
(I am strong, make me believe, make me believe)

I talk, I talk too much
I never open up
To what You need to say
My words get in the way

I search for stillness
But worry kills it
I need to clear my head
I'm tired, I need to rest

It all comes down to this
The quiet in the end
I listen for Your voice
Recovery begins

The times I hear You most
Are when You bring me close
I'll follow as You guide
While darkness turns to light

Whisper to me, whisper to me
Whisper to me, whisper to me
