In The Making... (2008)

I've been sleeping in for days,
'Cause when I am awake,
I will have to face my life.
And I'm hoping it's a phase.
The walls that I create
Can only make it seem alright.
And I get carried away like I'm the only one
Who's ever felt the way that I do,
But I can hear you say, "You're not the only one.
Everybody hopes to get through."

And it's got me sleeping in.
Every day God, it's the same thing.
Yeah, you caught me sleeping in.
I'm still hiding; I'm still waiting.
I need you here with me to face the world outside
'Cause I'm tired of sleeping in.

I've been waking up with fear,
'Cause all that I can hear
Is the ringing of alarms downtown.
It's been going on for years,
But you have made it clear
That I am not alone in this crowd.
And I get carried away like I'm the only one
Who's ever felt the way that I do,
But I can hear you say, "You're not the only one.
Everybody hopes to get through."

And it's got me sleeping in.
Every day God, it's the same thing.
Yeah, you caught me sleeping in.
I'm still hiding; I'm still waiting.
I need you here with me to face the world outside
'Cause I'm tired of sleeping in.

Open up my eyes.
I'm tired of sleeping in
In a world that's dying to wake up.

I'm done with sleeping in.

In The Making... (2008)

Tell me whose right
Whose wrong
It sounds like the same old song
But if it's compromise they want
Then I don't belong
We paint you in pictures well
We praise you and live like we don't
If you'd ask do we love you still
Sometimes I can't tell

It's true,
I still believe in you
We've made it hard to see
The light shining through
The things we do

Holy and beautiful
Your grace is unstoppable
It's bigger than what we've done
Or how we feel

It's true,
I still believe in you
We've made it hard to see
The light shining through
The things we do

Underneath my skin,
In a place where no one goes
There is still a fire,
Burning in my soul
The world is such a mess,
But somewhere there is hope
Somewhere there is hope
You are still my hope

It's true,
I still believe in you
We've made it hard to see
The light shining through
The things we do

I still believe in you,
I still believe in you,
I still believe in you,
I still believe in

In The Making... (2008)

It's been years in the making
In my skin, I'm shaking from the cold
I am tired from the taking
And my heart won't stop breaking
And I know, I know
Moving forward
Can't be this hard

I'm just tryin' to find out
Who I am, on my own
I had you right beside me
Now your gone and I know.
That when the room clears, I'm still here.
Who am I when I'm alone?

They say time is a healer
It's more like a concealer for a scar
Cause it never really leaves us
It can always find us where we are, we are
Who thought, it could
Ever be so hard?

I'm just tryin' to find out
Who I am, on my own
I had you right beside me
Now your gone and I know.
That when the room clears, I'm still here.
Who am I when I'm alone? Alone.

There's so much I should have said,
When time was wearing thin
Your not here, but someday I know
I'll see you again.

I'm just tryin' to find out
Who I am, on my own
I had you right beside me
Now your gone and I know.
I had you right beside me
But now your gone, your gone

I'm just tryin' to find out
Who I am, on my own
I had you right beside me
Now your gone and I know

When the room clears, I'm still here
Who am I when I'm...
When the room clears, I'm still here
Who am I when I'm...
When the room clears, I'm still here
Who am I when I'm Alone?

In The Making... (2008)

We watched the ships come in
From across the bay
I watched your lips move in
Wondering what to say
That was good enough
That was strong enough
That was good enough for you

Love is an ocean
Caught in a storm
Breaking down walls
And taking its form
The farthest from safety
But the closest I've come
As we come undone
In Augustine

We dangled our feet
Over water from the wall
I took your hand
Ready for the fall
I'd fall fast enough
I'd fall hard enough
I'd fall fast enough for you

Don't say a word
I hope that you know
There's truth in the way that we feel
The current is strong
I'll never let go of you
We'd fall fast enough
We'd fall hard enough
We'd fall sure enough
And never look back

In The Making... (2008)

Hey, where have you been?
Where did you go,
Looking for innocence
Shame, is holding you down
Sellin' you out
Won't you come back again?

Cause you found a way to go on for day's
Pretending to live
But you are not ok
With all of that weight
You need to give up

Come now, just let it go
Let it fall down
Let it all flow, like,
The water that's rushing in over your soul
Till there's nothing left
Won't you come to Me and rest

Hey, I know that your scared
To look in my eyes
When you know that somethings wrong
I'll wait as long as it takes
For you to find grace
That's been here all along

Cause you found a way to go on for day's
Pretending to live
But you are not ok
With all of that weight
You need to give up

Come now, just let it go
Let it fall down
Let it all flow, like,
The water that's rushing in over your soul
Till there's nothing left
Won't you come to Me...

As you are,
Dirty and broken
With all your scars from all the unspoken
With all of the words that you wanted to say,
But you locked them away, inside.

Come now, just let it go
Let it fall down
Let it all flow like,
Water that's rushing in over your soul
Till there's nothing left

Come now, just let it go
Let it fall down
Let it all flow like,
The water that's rushing in over your soul
Till there's nothing left
Won't you come to me and rest.

In The Making... (2008)

She spent the night out with a guy
Who gives attention when she cries herself to sleep
I heard her say
So, she gives him what he wants
As long as he can make her feel okay
But she's not okay

We avoid the topics
We make the kids have secrets
When they are exposed
And everyone else knows
We'll say we never knew it
That they had a problem
'Cause if we would have known
We surely would have solved it
But we can't, it's too late
I said we can't, it's too late

He's skipping classes 'cause he hates them
And hopes he passes not to take them all again
I heard him say
He escapes them with the pills
The ones he takes to make him feel like he's okay
But he's not okay

God, You've got to save us
We hide behind the faces that we make to disguise
The things that we're ashamed of
And all the ugly things that make us close our eyes
They make us close our eyes
Why do we close our eyes?

In The Making... (2008)

What if the fad burns out?
What if we're left without
Anyone to call our own?
You've got it figured out
If ever your in doubt
Never have to feel alone

People they come and people they go.
I could be wrong, but,
There's one thing I know
It's a longshot, baby,
But someday both of us will die
So I was thinking, maybe,
I could be your semi-perfect guy.
You don't know me, baby,
But I was hopin' we could try
For a longshot, you and I.

What if we take a chance,
What if we break your plans
And let me sweep you off your feet
You said you hate romance,
But I'm a persistent man
And I want you here with me

People they come and people they go.
I could be wrong, but,
There's one thing I know
It's a longshot, baby,
But someday both of us will die
So I was thinking, maybe,
I could be your semi-perfect guy.
You don't know me, baby,
But I was hopin' we could try
For a longshot, you and I.

I've been prayin' all my life
For love that's true,
But I never thought I'd get a girl like you.
O can't you see
Heaven sent you to me.

It's a longshot, baby,
But someday both of us will die
So I was thinking, maybe,
I could be your semi-perfect guy.
You don't know me, baby.
But I was hopin' we could try
For a longshot, you and I.

It's a longshot baby,
But someday both of us will die
So I was thinking, maybe,
I could be your semi-perfect guy.
You don't know me baby
But I was hopin we could try
For a longshot, you and I.

Live Like We're Alive (2006)

I am a lover
I am a shame
I am appalled by what I fame
I am a lover,
But I've had my share of flurting with the darkist,
Affairs

You can find me here,
With my head against the wall,
Lost in my regrets an every time I fall
You catch me in Your hands
You circle me like a wedding band

I have a lover
Faithfull and true
Cares for me, in all that I do
I have a lover
My song You have sung
With on Your lips, and Grace on Your tongue

You can find me here,
With my head against the wall,
Lost in my regrets an every time I fall
You catch me in Your hands
You circle me like a wedding band

A promise from heaven
A promise from You
A promise to love, I will hold on to
God of new beginnings, to You I cry,
Teach me how to love, teach me how to die
In death there's forgiveness
An forgiviness calls a new life, a new life.

You can find me here,
With my head against the wall,
Lost in my regrets an every time I fall
You catch me in Your hands
You circle me like a wedding band

I want to come closer
But you are so distant
Lately your thoughts are so far
And I want to show you all that you're missing
I'll meet you right where you are

You keep your distance
Like for instance
When you told me we should take it slow
It's been forever
It's now or never
And it might be time to let this go
And I know that I, I've got to get away
'Cause I've had enough

Live Like We're Alive (2006)

It's me running down your face
It's me you know you can't replace

With all that the world has for you
With all in the world that you can

I haven't reached perfection
But is that what she needs?
I haven't reached the wisdom
That she should always heed

Live Like We're Alive (2006)

We wear it on our face
We keep up with the pace
And don't slow down
Perfection without grace
Is such a lonely place to be found

Live Like We're Alive (2006)

I'm done. I'm done with this!
Oh Son, expose my weakness with the
daylight you bring that's bright enough to kill this grey.

Live Like We're Alive (2006)

Sweet patience
The product of our love
We can rise above together
We'll make it
The rain fills the sky
We can fight through any weather

"Patience and Devotion" Live at TVU
 

Live Like We're Alive (2006)

Here I am
Tonight
I can't stand
To fight
This feeling of despair
I hide
I wonder are you there?
