What's there to say here?
I am desperately undone
And the world is all but gray here
In this disenchanting sun
I can't feel the Spirit
It's enough to take me out
And I'm scared if someone hears it
All they'll hear will be my doubt
Redemption finds me
With my heart heavy on the ground
And its laughter comforts me after
But it can't seem to stick around
So I can't seem to stick around
Is it a mistake now
To broadcast all I have
When it's all composed of tears?
I always watered it down
To not make my mother sad
Now it's all we could have feared
The end's already here
Sad songs, don't they belong?
Can't I slow down for what has died?
Why expect, then, any less than?
Cause you stare like you're so surprised
But should I sing what I can't speak
Or should I swear, it's not to leave
It's a bone throw, it's a last hope
That you'll bolster my bruised belief
That you'll uproot what's underneath
Love, can you love me
And take me all bloody?
I don't want fame and don't care for money
Spark to my tinder
Embolden my ember
I held for flame but death brought a cinder
Don't think I'm lying
So still in the dying
I'm always on the brink but I'm trying
Devil is cunning
This dream life's becoming
I've barely slept a wink, I've been running
Drove with my dad north from Flagstaff
Saw the clouds on the South Rim part
When the Lord's hand in the canyon
Tore the veil off His work of art
Was a blizzard then a brilliance
Where at first nothing could be seen
Now some flag waves in its embrace
Where His staff waits to comfort me
TAKE ME BACK
Help me keep living
"Keep on, keep forgiving"
The sun goes up, its heat unrelenting
Why start a riot?
The rage, I defy it
The grief is quite enough, make me quiet
How long, the losing?
The heel knows the bruising
This backroad was not mine for the choosing
God, be the Friend of me
I'm at the end of me
Shall we crush the head of the Enemy?
Shall we crush the head of the Enemy?
