It's never just a one time thing It gets hidden in everything It'll follow you all the way to death And maybe even after that So keep your hands safe and clean And it wouldn't be such a bad thing If Sundays were for Church and everyone Could just work some other day So don't get caught Trying to impress all the rest There's no point For you to waste your breath Look towards the open road Decisions you make decide where you go The outcomes of your actions reflect the thought You put in them before they happened So don't get caught Trying to impress all the rest There's no point For you to waste your breath There's no point For you to waste your breath There's no point For you to waste your breath They start off as such small threats Soon develop and quicken their attack The outcomes of your actions reflect the thought You put in them before they happened

The moon just looked like another stoplight swayin' in the wind. And your dark brown hair hides your face like your feelings hide within. Because you know what I've been thinking and it's that same old thought again. Sometimes you must forget in order to love again, in order to trust again. Oh darling just hold my hand. Trust that is built on sturdy ground never succumbs to doubt. But your trust I have built it on shifty sand because I just can't figure it out. 'Cause I don't know what you are thinking, so if you could just spell it out, and I will learn I'll change, just open your mouth. Just let the words run out. There's no need to shout. The fox has its holes and the sparrow its nest but the Son of Man has no place to rest in this world, no place to lay his head (Matthew 8:20). And the ignorant in mind choose the shadow that's bent 'cause the Son of Man is no sacrament in their heads. No price to pay with death. No reason to relent. No sacrifice for them. And I want to let him rest Yes I want to pay my debt (Sung in the background) They say it's easy They say it's hard They say it's easy They say it's easy They say it's different They say his love They say it's everything They say he loves us They think he does They say he loves us They think he doesn't They say he loves us We know he does They say he loves us We know he does

I'm not so sick that I will just let it be my fault it'll never be I'll never let it be my fault And I'm not so scared that this nightmare disguised as a dream Will turn to my reality I'll never let it become my reality Is this the problem that's been crippling us? The same problem that I saw in a dream once? The problem that will come back to haunt us? Unless we leave behind the dust that so easily chokes us up. So easily chokes us up. When you and I were kids did you ever see a thing so beautiful As where we are now and where we're gonna be? I have to admit that I never saw a thing until you shed His light on my reality Oh God now I can see

When nine and ten meet It brings me peace like a calm breeze On a Blue Ridge mountain peak The beauty that's so steadfast in your ways Brings me joy like your smile On a cool spring day When the tears start rushing down your face It's like the shrill of freezing water Just rushing through my veins But you let me know that it's all gonna be okay Sometimes joy and sadness Are expressed in the same ways I am but a child of the flatlands With a love for the mountains The blue-ridged span And like any form of art, they didn't form by chance Behind every work worth admiration There's an impressive set of hands Tired with the way this always turns out Every long journey ends With ever increasing doubt But the assurance is in your smile, it's in your voice Oh God you never bring us sadness Without any Joy But we put ourselves behind closed doors That we've created for ourselves With the empty thoughts of the world All the while we're searching for something more What we never realize Is what we want is behind the door Want's not just a word it's a curse so stay away Be content with what you have. Be thankful for everyday We'll never know how much this life of ours can change Be content with what you have. Be thankful for everyday

I'm tired with the way I always speak Because most often times it's not what I mean But if I just put more thought into my words I'd save myself some trouble and you some hurt I'm tired of ripping your heart from your chest Like it's some game that I can simply reset Distance will never do us part As long as our love grows strong, and we keep Him in our hearts I'm tired of hurtin' you with my words It's time that I change for better and not for worse And if by chance I forget your feelings let me know And I will try to change the words that I spoke This is goodbye to the words that I spoke And I will try to change the words that I spoke This is goodbye to the words that I spoke

Stop the speeding hollow Thoughts behind the world's soot There's no need to bellow Over money if you could Just do what you love And not care what anyone else does Days pass and memories to sort Some good, most bad Don't let it resort to this Getting old and looking back At what you could've had And what you wish you would've done Fifteen years of nothing you love For a lifetime of I wish I would've Stop the connotations of age Getting old is not all bad Wrinkles upon your face Show the smiles that you had When you were young 'Cause you don't care what anyone else has done I can't wait for that day When my youthful joy shows upon my aged face Don't let another year go to waste Livin' miserable lives thinking that it's money you should chase Don't let another year part ways Unless you learn that you can dream while still awake Learn to stay awake (Hallelujah)
