paranoid 03:17
It consumes and confuses, all these thoughts of yourself. You might not believe it, but the world wants to kill you. And I don't mean to be that paranoid freak, but you'll find it true when you hear the views of our world. But there is a way, a different kind of way. Just one look and I was on my face. You had me down on my knees, begging for mercy please. I was shown inside my heart I knew I had to die. In a world of madness, you'll find a face that says it all. Wipes away tears of sadness while looking for a coin. Life can be so damn unforgiving, turning hearts to stone and every bone stone dry. But there is a way, a different kind of way. Just one look into this grace and I was on my face. You had me down on my knees, begging for mercy please. I was shown inside my heart I knew I had to die.

Sometimes, it takes a bit of time for you heart to catch up with your mind. The flip-side of the coin is at times you're gonna feel things first, and thats fine. How you gonna give it to me this time? Life's moving quick, can you slow down time? It aint the road I've been given, it's the way that I walk it, the fall got me losing my mind. I'm sick and tired of the enemies lies pushing me to live a life not mine. Stop me from committing this crime. Tear down my boxes and renew my mind. Do you need the sea to split to be in a place that you can call good? What's good? Everybody moves to a different tune. My liberty no it never came cheap, a life was laid down, fierce love ransomed me. You wore a crown of thorns for me. Yeah I've tasted and I've seen. I looked the devil in his eyes, I wont lie, I looked for satisfaction. A bitter interaction, a fatal attraction. No wonder why I was never satisfied, I was looking in the wrong place I was walking blind. Yeah I've tasted and I've seen. Yeah I've tasted and I've seen I've been, down to the bottom of barrels deep, I've seen, what darkness is. Yeah I've tasted and I've seen I've been, down every acid lane I've seen, what madness is.

lose control 03:03
I'm moving on down this line they call time. And although it wont wait for no one it invites us all inside. Yesterdays, quick become our today's tomorrows. While some they sing a song of joy, others hum the sound of sorrow. Let it go. Let it go . I saw a man walk on by right by another. The one he was a homeless man much unlike the other. See they both served the same god but neither of them loved each other. See I'm fine with this damn money thing unless money gonna kill my brother. Let it go. Lose control. It's one or the other. Let it go. It's love or the other. Let it go. City living got me feeling like I don't know where I belong. In the city living's not so easy, the days are cold and nights are long. An the city got me singing a different kind of song but I know it's still written by my God.

lazarus 03:51
The question that is what if? it can ruin a man right down to the darkest deep. Like a weed in a garden, if you leave it it'll grow until no longer you can breath. But when the honeybee stings it dies it can't follow me. No when the honeybee stings it dies it can't follow me. Your heart is the garden and love is the keeper but the gate is it open or closed? I've got weeds in my garden and I need them to come out but love I wont let close. Don't let that honeybee sting of life come follow me. Don't let that honeybee sting of life come follow me. Blossoming gardens, flowers dressed to the nines. Colors in chaos, scales have fallen from eyes. He rolled the stone away for you and for me. Like the honeybee that stings until it dies it'll try, but no it can't follow me. But still there's those moments filled with fear when I say are you there? Then you sing. Will the Lazarus of my heart rise to his feet. While he weeps he whispers me, death has no sting. When you're filled with despair and it's all black in here, hold on tight to the words that he bled. He's spoken believe it there's no lies underneath it, look around, because heaven is near. Will the Lazarus of our hearts rise to their feet. When the honeybee stings it dies it can't follow me. Blossoming gardens, flowers dressed to the nines. Colors in chaos, scales have fallen from eyes. He rolled the stone away for you and for me.

wolf 03:11
When the sun came up, my mind was wired, the night was a fallen scene. I was filling voids and blaming broken dreams. I picked me up and I called me fine while I wiped off my bloody knees. I's just a blind man following a world that couldn't see. Couldn't see, can you see? Is this a picture that you can believe? Couldn't see, can see? Have you got a picture that you want to believe? Now I was told that I had gone too far and that there aint no hope for me. But that was just a wolf in sheep's clothing telling lies with religious speech. But it weren't too long since my heart turned cold and my eyes saw a different scene. I saw a different scene. There was a man named Paul chief sinner of all, he got saved he got set free. Is this a picture that you can believe? I am free. Are you free? Is this a picture that you can believe? I am free. Are you free? Have you got a picture you want to believe?
