(chorus)
What
you're still here?
What
are you doing here?
Why
are you still here?
Why
are you still here?
Looks
like she's fallen again
Replies
one of her friends
Looks
like the baby fell too
I
can see his bruise
What
a shame...what's the use
Why
take this shame?
Why
take this abuse?
(chorus)
All
the shame
And
all the pain
When
will it end?
Jesus
come in.
Jesus
come in.
She
got hit by her man
He
said he'd never do it again.
I
don't know if I
believe
him.
Able-Bodied
Shannon
wrote this
it's
not the doubt that brings me down
it's
dispair being drug around,
and
the sounds
fogging
up my senses
eating
up my lunch
I'm
blind and tired
thirsty,
numb
chorus:
able-bodied
hungry
for
something
more
defy
the logic of yesteryear
leave
the fog for a road so clear,
learn
to hear
forget
these lies that leave us dead
we
wanted good
but
lost instead
chorus
bridge
tired
of the tent your wear
sick
of the sin we share
drench
me in drink brand new
cloth
me in skins of truth.
chorus
Exiled
alone,
on
this island of stone
God
of sight and sound
giving
us clues as to what's going down
Exiled
alone,
on
this island of stone
visions
of truth
visions
of You.
Blistery,
and
my hands sting
and
I've never ever ever
felt
so cold
and
I feel so old
I
feel like a kid
standing
in the mud
trying
to clean himself up
Drowning,
when
he found me
treading
water
I
was sinking down down down
but
I know now,
just
where I've been
but
can I so easily
place
my trust in my skin?
(chorus)
I need healer
someone
wash me anew
and
I need lover
to
heal this broken body
and
stop the bleeding too.
and
I need...
Whispered,
and
my ears burn
I
can tell somebody's
on
their knees
and
while I'll sleep
I
hope and hope
that
these nightmarish
thoughts
won't return to
linger
and poke.
(chorus)
(bridge)
and
I need a healer
and
I need a lover
and
I need a savior
to
heal this broken body
and
stop the bleeding too
and
I need You
the
heavens' sing
I
am so free
and
they know your glory,
they
know.
(chorus)
from dust
I
come
from
dust
I'm
grown
the
heavens' sing
I
am so free
and
they know your glory...
I
broke the chain
you
gave me to restrain
I
can't exactly explain
the
way I want to touch
your
heart
So
why don't I just touch your heart?
(chorus)
Isn't it great
the
way I ruin you
Can
we escape?
or
would we even want to?
Paul
said something
about
being lead
my
desires, I've read
are
what pull me from you.
They're
what pull me away from Jesus
(chorus2)
Isn't it great
the
way I ruin you
Can
we escape?
or
would we even want to?
I
can't believe
the
way I ruin you
Jesus
please
forgive
me again (and again)
(bridge)
Why can't I just touch you with my heart?
and
not with my hands
It
doesn't make much sense
because
in the end
I'm
empty
I'm
guilty
without
you my God
without
you my God
Oh
my Lord (chorus3) isn't it great
the
way I ruin you?
But
in the end,
the
grace covers me
and
you!
Flesh Chief
Shannon wrote this
Are you like me,
Have you ever been caught?
Staring at the light
Standing in the dark
Do you know the hurt
Have you felt the pain
Of a tummy lurch
and a belly strain?
(chorus)
Flesh Chief,
Paul, said it all
Flesh Chief,
Paul, said it all
Flesh Chief,
Paul, said it all
My God, He's not so small
We owe so much
we cannot repay
Will I take what I deserve?
I need your grace.
I stand in rain
This grace smells sweet
I'm dancing in the puddles
at your feet.
(chorus)
oh wretched man that I
am
who can save me from this body
of death
I guess, I'll let you guess.
What I want to do
I don't do
What I hate
That's what I do
3...2...1
(chorus)
hold my head under the
water
if it will let me live again
I've been falling down so much
lately
can't seem to pull myself out
of this spin
(chorus)
switch me off
to set me free
I know the situation's bleak
if it's all the same to
you
I think I'll trade away this
grief
There's nothing I hate more
Than a fitfull night of sleep
he's been whispering his lies
and I've been buying them wholesale
and this "home" I've built with
all my "newfound friends"
is feeling like a cell
(chorus)
When all is said and I'm
undone
Lord please tie me to your rock
because I know I will let go
and I'm so scared of being lost...
Bleed Me Real
Shannon wrote this
Made a covenant with my
eyes
but I can't say I'm trusing
them or me
I don't know, where to go or
what to do
to leave these things that pull
from you
but I think I know the truth
chorus:
It's the way I long to heal
but the nails just don't appeal
yet I know my wrist and legs
will have to
bleed me real
Can't exactly remember
the day
when I first saw you so clear
But I remember hope like yesterday
I felt the "new" and "clean"
the way
you touched my face
chorus
Homesick
Shannon wrote the words, Zech
wrote the music...
you held me
i felt your arms
you saw the beauty beneath me
scars
you called me
i heard your word
and I wept with joy when i learned
i was cured
(chorus)
and now
i feel so
so homesick for you
it kills
and i am left to seethe
it drains me so I'd die for
relief
(chorus) (bridge) you said
way...
you said true...
you said life...
now we're waiting we're aching,
we're so homesick for you...
