Broken

I float, I fly
I'm blinded by my own sight
When did I become so broken?
I swear I thought I could fly
Just look at all these pieces
Don't remember hitting the ground
I look in the mirror and
Don't like what I see
Staring back at me
When did I become so broken?
I swear I thought I could fly
We're broken
We're searching
We're wandering
We're pleading
Where are you?

Adam
I'm Adam and I always have been
Forever marked with his name
I'm Adam and I always have been
A tapeworm from the fruit
Leviathan is within
And he continues to feed
I'm Adam and I always have been
Forever marked with his name
I'm Adam and I always have been
Forever
An appetite led by this taste
I search the spoils with ease
Because the apple doesn't fall
Far from the tree
I know I should leave
But just one more bite
No end to this hunger in sight
I'm Adam and I always will be
Until my name is changed
By someone greater
Adam

It's best to hold your tongue
For out of the heart the mouth speaks
Now I'm left with blood on my hands
And the taste of Iron in my teeth
I'm sorry for the things I've left unsaid
I'm sorry that I left you to bleed
If I could I would take it back
My tongue is sharper
Its sharper than I think
You cast your words not knowing they're
Tangled in my skin
They cut
Let the bloodletting begin
(My words)
I am weary and blood sick
Sharper than I think
(Sharper)
Sharper than I think
(Sharper)
My words are sharper than you think

Arson

Grab the gasoline and the matches too
Follow your heart straight towards
Everything you love
Pour the gasoline over everything
Light a match and just let go
Burn it down, burn it down, burn it down
All you love to the ground
You're the arsonist (arson)
You set everything you love
On fire (fire)
Watch the flames climb higher and
Smoke fills your eyes
Try no to cry my child, because
Ashes won't
Reach out and hurt your little heart
So fan the flames and watch them burn
Burn this city, burn this town
Burn it down to a pile of ashes
To a pile of ashes where you
Sit on your throne, sit all alone
With your bridges burnt
You're king on your own
So fan the flames
Burn it down

It all started with the questions:
“Who is God and who am I?”
“And who am I supposed to be?“
It can make a soul grow old
And I think Ive done the best that I can
To see you despite my blurry vision
And I think that I've done
That I've done the best that I can
To see you (to see you)
Despite my blurry vision
So we're left in the space between
Of what we think know
What is, and we want to be
It's hunger buried in our chest
Find rest
And I hope
You've done the best that you can
To see me despite your blurry vision
And I hope (I hope) that you've done
That you've done the best that you can
To see you (to see you)
Despite my blurry vision
And I hope you smile when
When you think of me
(when you remember me)
And I hope you're proud when you
When you
When you think of (when you look down on) me
And I think you've done the best that you can
Despite cataract eyes and blurry vision.
And I know (I know) that you've done
That you've done the best that you can
To see me (to see me)
Despite your blurry vision

Of Night And Light

Children of light
Bent towards the night
The dark feels safe because
There is no sight
We're afraid to go outside
Where we're vulnerable to light
It's a battle without end
But it's one that's worth the blood
(worth the blood)
We are children of light
Bent towards the night
All the time in this world (we are children)
To make your dreams come true
(of light)
Let go the darkness, this one time
(bent towards the night)
Does it define light, or you?
We are children (of light)
We are children of (of light)
We are children of (of light)
Of night and light

“Well it's grey,” I hear you say
“And I'm just luke warm
And I don't know whether I should run
Walk, sit or stand“
So hold on my friend
This grey will surely end
There's a sun that's waiting
Just behind those clouds
And your eyes are soft
And your mind is lost
Inside of itself with no way out
And I know your strength
Is all but gone
And your mind is raw
It's ok to crawl
Or not move at all
So hold on my friend
This grey will surely end
There's a Son that's waiting
Just behind those clouds
So hold on, oh my soul
And do not, do not let go
There's a hope that's waiting
Just around the bend
And I know that you can't see it
But please, oh please believe me
[Because] I've got 20/20
So you can lean on me
Don't give up now
