Bloodbath

I'm ready to bury you six feet under
Out of everyone
You mean nothing to me
You mean nothing to me


If looks could kill
This would be a massacre
Bloodbath
And you'd be at the heart of it
If I die
You'll never get this right
You'll never get this right


Down, down
Everybody just calm down
Here, here
I've got something to say
Die, die
Everybody just drop dead
Now, now
Everybody scream and shout
Everybody scream and shout


If looks could kill
This would be a massacre
Bloodbath
And you'd be at the heart of it
If I die
You'll never get this right
You'll never get this right


Limelight
I'm in the spotlight now
Tonight
Everyone's going out
Out of style
Out of town
You, you
You're hiding in the dirt
What now?
You know you're not breathing
HA HA
I told you this would happen
Laugh, laugh
Cause now we're at the end

More To Me



The make up's all off now

Let's talk face to face

No more charades

I'm over exposed

But you already knew that

You know me too well

But not who I really am


You bought the lie

You thought I was shy

You thought I was cute

And funny too

But that's not the half of it

There's so much more to me


I'm head over heels

Trying to deal with the face

You don't seem to like me much

At least not the way I'd like

I'm much more complex

Just try me, you'll see

There is so much more to me


You bought the lie

You thought I was shy

You thought I was cute

And funny too

But that's not the half of it

There's so much more to me

You're leaving I know

I'll be sad when you go

Your whole other life

Without me by your side


You bought the lie

And it kills me inside

You'll never know me for who I am


I'm head over heels

Trying to deal with the face

You don't seem to like me much

At least not the way I'd like

I'm much more complex

Just try me, you'll see

There is so much more to me

Backwards Fairytale


Slept my life away
Cause dreams are better then reality
My knight in shining armor
I only see him in my sleep
I've become Sleeping Beauty
Waiting for my prince to come
I'll keep dreaming till the day he comes
And wakes me from my sleep
I've become so used to seeing you in my dreams
To see you face to face is... overwhelming
Overcome with emotions I can't name
I'll grasp your hand
My angel in the darkness
My knight in shining armor
Take me out of here
He takes my hand as we run
And open field
A pure white stallion
Majestic in all his glory
His noble steed to whisk me into the sunset
But not all is how it seems
Drops of poison cloud my glass
She speaks of treachery and betrayal
Who she is I haven't a clue
But who I am she seems to know
She tells me I took a terrible fall
Been in a coma for more then a while
So it was all a dream?
I'm not so sure
I can see his face
I can see his horse
I can picture the field
I hear him calling but I can't respond
'Wait for me my prince' I yell
She says he can't hear me
He's under a spell
So it was real
Bat magic's been used
It's a trap
That much I can tell
Everything is backwards
Nothing is as it seems
But I'll save you my prince
Just hold on till morning
I'll be there in your dreams....

When Is It My Turn?

I know I'm ment for more then this
Ment for more then broken hearts and shattered dreams
Ment for more then just living day to day
More then just sitting on the sidelines
Watching life pass me by
I know I'm ment for something greater
But when is it my turn?


I see all these couples in love and holding hands
Rockstars with big dreams that came true
Life with a purpose
Something more then useless
I know it's written in a perfect plan
But God, when is it my turn?

Sometimes I just wanna run away
Don't wanna see another day break
Some days just feel so pointless
Like why waste it?
I wanna live, and live big
Carpe diem

Siezing my dream

Cause now it's my turn
And I'm not gonna run away
Holding Your hand
I know I can
A big dream coming true
Cause now I know You
My life has a purpose
So much more then useless
My perfect plan in action
Now it's my turn
God, now it's my turn

Scream!


You betrayed me
You've doomed us all
Doomed us all to a bloody, fiery death
And what did you gain?
A lifetime to spend alone
I won't be here to help you
I'll be long gone
In an inferno of tears


So keep walking
Till your feet fall off
And drop to your knees
While on your knees, pray!
Pray for someone to save you
Pray till your knees are bloody
Pray so that one day you may see
Just how bad you treated me


You'll never escape the voices in your head
They'll always remind you what you did
You can claw at your ears
But we will never shut up!
You can scream
But your conscience will always scream louder
We will not be silenced


So keep walking
Till your feet fall off
And drop to your knees
While on your knees, pray!
Pray for someone to save you
Pray till your knees are bloody
Pray so that one day you may see
Just how bad you treated me


Now scream!
But you can't escape it
Apologize!
But you will never be forgiven
Cry!
But you will never find rest

Just keep walking
Trekking through with bloody feet
Keep walking till you realize
I'm in a better place
You're the one in the inferno
You're the one who's doomed
You betrayed yourself
You're alone
I'm in the arms of my Saviour
And you're the one holding on to broken bones
So keep screaming!
Cause you can't escape it anyways

Clean Break


'A clean break is what you need'
The final words I heard as you left me
Your heart must be made of stone
Oh, you've turned so cold, my love
So steal my breath and break my bones
How could you leave and take all of me?
You're a cold-blooded killer
Taking from an unarmed girl
And leaving like you never felt anything
You took everything from me
Even what was left of my sanity
And all you left me was the gaping hole
This gaping hole in my chest
Chills me to my very core
You should've known better then to leave me alone
I still can't breathe without your arms around me
I miss you
Do you miss me?
Can you feel anything?
If you knew what was best you'd come back to me
I know that won't happen
You're so far gone
You've moved on
And forgot all about me
But all I have left to say is...
Please come back my dear
I miss you

Light At The End Of The Tunnel


Hey little beauty queen
How does it feel to be so loved at only eighteen?
Must be nice to have all eyes on you
Oh but the pressure to be perfect
Wait till the curtain closes
That's when it turns real
No lights
No glamour
And you're standing in the rain
The only one left to love you is yourself
And you don't even know how

No one knows your secret life
The pills you take
In the nights you shake
You're so alone
The scars you bear
And the whole time your heart aches
Would it be so hard for someone to come to your rescue?
You can pick your poison
But you can't choose the way you die

He lied to you didn't he?
'I love you baby'
Weren't those the words that spilled from his lips?
Since they sounded so sweet
You gave in didn't you sweetheart?
Now what's left?
Is anything sacred?
Do you even know who you are anymore?


No one knows your secret life
The pills you take
In the nights you shake
You're so alone
The scars you bear
And the whole time your heart aches
Would it be so hard for someone to come to your rescue?
You can pick your poison
And you just chose the way you're gonna die


I've been where you are
And let me tell you something
When it feels you're at the end of the rope
Nothing left to give or take
Keep holding on
He will comfort you if you only ask
When all you see is the headlights of a train coming
I see the Light at the end of your tunnel
Trust in Him
Believe me, I know

No one knows your secret life
The pills you take
In the nights you shake
You're so alone
The scars you bear
And the whole time your heart aches
Would it be so hard for someone to come to your rescue?
You can pick your poison
And you just chose the way you're gonna die


You can find a new life
One full of life and love
No wilted roses
Just gardens of blooming flowers
One without pain
The Creator of the universe knows YOUR name
And He has a plan
Just trust in Him
He will bring you comfort
You'll see rainbows on your darkest days
When the clouds cover the skies
Just trust in Him
Believe me, this I know
You'll find Life

Out Of Commission


Cried my last tear
Oh honey you bled me dry
Thought I was perfect
Well well well
You had it wrong
Time to show you who I really am


My halo's out of commission for the night
Go elsewhere if you're looking for an angel
No more trying to be perfect
I gave all that up today
Time to embrace the darkness
No more little princess
No more innocent little girl
She is long gone
See if you like me now


Delusional and on the fence
Hallucinations of a perfect world
Horns hold up the halo now
I'll be coming back for you
What a hollow hollow life you lead
Believing this whole lie
You'll be the perfect end to a perfect meal
Perfect to satisfy my appetite

My halo's out of commission for the night
Go elsewhere if you're looking for an angel
No more trying to be perfect
I gave all that up today
Time to embrace the darkness
No more little princess
No more innocent little girl
She is long gone
See if you like me now

Clouds


Now is when I feel alone
I let you go
Now there's a battle between flesh and spirit
And it's not looking to good for me
So I'm taking off
I'll fly away home
I'm headed to the clouds
And even you can't stop me now
But darling I'd love to see you try


I'm sitting in the clouds
And you're the first to pull me down
'Keep your feet on the ground' you say
'Stop hiding in the clouds'
But it's the only place I feel safe

You don't know what I've been through
Through these thoughts and the pain
When the night gets the darkest is when it starts
I scream into my pillow
And pray for the sunrise
I need the start of a new day
Something new to take away my pain
Blast the music to drown out silence
But everything about this place still feels hollow


I'm sitting in the clouds
And you're the first to pull me down
'Keep your feet on the ground' you say
'Stop hiding in the clouds'
But it's the only place I feel safe
I wish I knew what was real
Hallucinations of a better tomorrow with you
If you still want me in my broken state
I wouldn't blame you if you left me here
But baby I pray you won't
Stay by my side till the morning comes
Cause when I see that sunrise
I know that there is hope for me yet
Just stay with me till then
And I can promise youI'll change for the better

Falling For You (Hold Me Tight)


So this is how falling for you feels
I swore it wouldn't happen
I swore against being another love sick puppy
But I know this time it's different
One look in those deep baby blue eyes
And boy, you know you got me


Hold me tight
Kiss me love
Say you'll do anything I ask
You know you're my only one
I don't want anyone else
It sounds so cliche, but it's all I know


Those long summer nights
With you by my side
Those drives by the lake
Those silly songs we listened to
With the windows down
And the volume up
Singing at the top of our lungs
And that's when I knew you were mine
The moment no one else mattered
And all I could see was you

Hold me tight
Kiss me love
Say you'll do anything I ask
You know you're my only one
I don't want anyone else
It sounds so cliche, but it's all I know
Hold me through the storms

The thunder and lightning can be so frightening
Hold me through the winter nights
The snow so cold
But a smile so warm it can melt through the chill
Hold me during the summer days
Laying on the beach
Hold me in the chill autumn air
Leaves blowing everywhere
None of it matters
As long as you're by my side


Hold me tight
Kiss me love
Say you'll do anything for me
And I'll love you forever and beyond

Never Back Down!


Been under the covers too long
Afraid to see my own shadow
Cowering in fear from something unknown
It's my time to stand up
My time to take authority over this
It's my time to stand up and never back down

When all your hope has disappeared
When you've given into your fears
In the dark you're all alone
And your heart needs a home
Don't give in
Break out of the mold
Scream the words you feel


Don't let the enemy bind you
Don't let his lies bind you
We have the power to take him down
We need to learn to stand our ground
Learn to never back down

When all your hope has disappeared
When you've given into your fears
In the dark you're all alone
And your heart needs a home
Don't give in
Break out of the mold
Scream the words you feel

Keep holding on
Even when it seems there is nothing to hold on to
Stand your ground
Don't let your guard down
Let out a battlecry
And charge the gates
Rattle the bones
And slay your enemy

Just remember this
You're much to strong to back down
Even when all hope has disappeared
Even when you gave into those fears
If you're in the dark
I'll come and rescue you
Just stand up
Fight back
And never back down!

Quick Fix


Just for once I'd like to be perfect
Just for once I'd like to not be ugly
Just this once I don't want to be a monster
Just for once I want to be alone
Just for once I want to feel
Just this once I want to be with you


I'm just looking for a quick fix darling
Nothing to last so long
Nothing addictive baby
Just something to get me through the night
Just a quick fix darling
Nothing addictive baby

Adrenaline coursing through me
What is this feeling?
Got me hooked
Now there's no turning back
No going back to how it used to be
We're in it for the long haul
Weather you like it or not
You're stuck with me now


I didn't want anything addictive
Just a quick fix darling
Now we're in so deep
Too deep for ever looking back
Look to the future and all I see
All I see is you and me
Got me hooked
Now there's no turning back
And all I see is you and me

Breath Of Life


I've been digging my own grave
Writing my own eulogy
Just a ghost waiting to scatter my ashes
Walking dead, waiting to come alive
Make me come alive!


Roam the graveyard
Examine the masses
Choke back your tears
How could I end up here?
I feel so unclean
Why can't I be free?


Alone and dying
I hear myself screaming
Give me air!
Give me Your life!
Give me all of You!
Give me the breath of life!


Who left me here?
A shell of myself
A fraction of who I could be
With no way to change
And end in sight
No way to know where I went wrong
I can't find my way home
Just leave me here


Alone and dying
I hear myself screaming
Give me air!
Give me Your life!
Give me all of You!
Give me the breath of life!


Not all stories have a happy end
I'm thankful that mine does
You gave me the breath of life
Now I breathe freely and easily
No longer alone and dying
I'm alive and whole
No longer a shell of a man
In Your presence I'm becoming whole
I've found a way to change
And I've found a path that leads me home
I've found the only thing that will make you whole
I'm eternally thankful
For the breath of life!

Sleep Tonight


I couldn't sleep tonight
Cause you were on my mind
I'm sorry it ended this way
I just couldn't be here another day
So I packed up and ran away

I'm just a coward
A liar
A loser who couldn't face the music
I'm just sorry
Cause you were the best thing that ever happened to me


I can't sleep tonight
Too much on my mind
I can't sleep tonight
I've compromised myself
I've let it bleed me to death
Too much on my mind
No way I'm sleeping tonight


I'm just a coward
A liar
And a loser who couldn't face the music
I'm just a sinner
I'm so ashamed


I couldn't sleep tonight
Everything on my mind
A heart in my hands
Opportunities I could have had
I can't sleep tonight


I'm a coward
A liar
A loser
A sinner
I don't deserve this
I don't deserve anything
I'm unlovable
Unchangable
Unforgivable
Unbelievable

But You don't see that
How I'll never know
In Your eyes
I'm brave
I speak Your truth
A winner
And forgiven


My heart's been changed
Melted by Your power
Loved like no other
I've found a place where sleep is sweet
You alone Lord make me dwell in safety
Bold as a lion, gentle as a dove
And I wanna fall asleep in Your arms

The Price Of Freedom




This blood bath is over
Bury the dead
The fight was won
Sound the trumpets
We're coming home

And that's just the price of freedom
Taking and killing with no remorse
The price of freedom is paid
But at what cost?
The lives of thousands
The hearts of few
We're stronger then this
And all we paid was the price of freedom

Broken on a cross
Blood dripped down His forehead
Died so we could live
He paid the price so we wouldn't have to
Paid the price so that we would know the truth

Lay down your arms
This blood bath is over
Bury the dead
The fight was won
Sound the trumpets
We're coming home

Lay down your arms
This price was paid
Damnation slayed
All paid the price of freedom

One day we'll see the end
No more suffering for anything
No more paying for our freedom
You paid the ultimate price
So just lay down your arms
This blood bath is over
Bury the dead
The fight was won
Sound the trumpets
We're coming home

Burn


It's like a fire shut up in my bones
And I'm about to let it go!


If tomorrow never comes
It'll be a day too soon
This regret I've been living with
Will eat me out of house and home
Straight to my core it goes
And burrows deep into my soul

This headache it's been giving me
The light so blinding I can't see
I need a strong hand to hold me up
While I burn my past
I want something that will last


If tomorrow burns away
With ash and soot
My problems will be far behind me
Or at least that's what you told me


But you could have told me
Problems aren't gone with the flick of the wrist
But they are solved with forgiveness


I need a strong hand to hold me up
While I burn my past
Dear God
Oh God give me something that will last...

Tomorrow finally came
And I'm not scared
I've finally found something that lasts
And that's all I need
I've burned my past
Lost all regrets
And all it took was a little forgiveness


I'll live to see a few more years
I'll live my life without fears
And all it took was forgiveness

Stupid Girl (Stupid Boy)


I think I just lost a friend
A powerful ally in this race ahead
Was I to bold?
Did I come on to strong?
Just tell me what I did wrong

I told you the truth
But you just don't get it
You stupid girl
He doesn't love you and never could
He's just a boy playing his games
He doesn't care if he breaks you again
You're just a trophy to show to his friends
But I've been here all along
I've seen you hurt, I saw you cry
Only I know what you sreamed to the night
I can't be here to pick up the pieces again
I'm done

I told you the truth
But you just don't get it
You stupid girl
He doesn't love you and never could
He's just a boy playing his games
He doesn't care if he breaks you again
You're just a trophy to show to his friends

Two months later
Down the road
He broke your heart like I said he would
You wouldn't believe me
You stupid girl
You can pick up the pieces this time
I'm done

Cause
He didn't love you and never could
He broke your heart like I said he would
He was just a boy playing his games
He didn't care if he broke you again
You were just a trophy to show his friends
Well congratulations you succeeded
You didn't see her broken and bleeding
Broken was the way she came
Now all she feels is shame

You stupid boy you didn't see her
A beautiful girl
A delicate creature
You lied to her you did mistreat her
You didn't love her, and never could

You broke her heart like I said you would
You were just a boy playing games
You didn't care if you broke her again
She was just a trophy to show your friends

This is where the story ends...

Now all that's left is two broken souls
A stupid boy and a stupid girl

A House Divided Against Itself Cannot Stand



Another night you made me cry
Another tear stained face
Another night I'm all alone
When did I fall from grace?


I don't want to hear it anymore
I'm tired of this lie
I don't like you, you don't like me
So why do we even try?
I don't like you, you don't like me
So why even try?
Why even try?


You act like it's alright
I know it's not
When are you gonna see
You try to cover up this pain
By placing all the blame on me
But I'm done with this lie
I'm getting out
Cause...


I don't want to hear it anymore
I said I'm tired of this lie
You said you loved me when you don't....
I don't like you, you secretly hate me
So why do we do this to ourselves?
I'm getting out tonight
I'll see you someother time
Maybe you can forgive me for everything I've done


I didn't mean to hurt you
But that's what it came down to
I hope you can forgive me someday
One day we'll get over this
I never ment to hurt you
I'm so sorry
I'm sorry
That's all I have to say

One Man


My Mind...
Is my worst enemy
It takes the things I thought
And turns it into what it's not
Because...

I am but one man with one plan
And one life
To do the best I can
I fall down
I may get bruised
But I get back up and sing for You
My Lord, My King
I let Your praises ring
You are my God

My heart's...
Still beating, beating for you
Use it as you can
Cause You took me
A bruised and battered man
You love me more than words can express
So I'll just exclaim Your holiness
Because...

I am but one man with one plan
And one life
To do the best I can
I fall down
I may get bruised
But I get back up and sing for You
My Lord, My King
I let Your praises ring
You are my God

Dear Lord


Dear Lord,
I don't know where to start
It's been way too long
I've been in the dark
Away from Your light
Too far into the night

I can't do it on my own
Getting out of this black hole
Some call my soul

I've been this way for far to long
An empty space, a hollow hole
Take me back and let's be friends
This isn't where my story ends

It took the strike of tragedy
For me to know I need You!
Lord I need You!
No one else will do!
I need the love that never ends
I need the gentle guidance of a friend
The still small voice that speaks to me
That peace to always surround me

I can't do it on my own
Getting out of this black hole
Called my soul

I've been this way for far to long
An empty space, a hollow hole
Take me back and let's be friends
This isn't where my story ends

This is the beginning of a new chapter
The beginning of a new life
I've thrown the old me away
I'm here to live it Your way
The beginning of a new life
Take my old one, I don't want it
I'm solely Yours
Take me, use me
I'm Yours!
