DEAD TO THE WORLD
20 YEARS WALKING ON THE NARROW PATH
STILL I REAP WHAT I SOW FROM THE SINS OF THE PAST
DEVIL’S GUN TO MY HEAD, DON’T BLINK
LIFE OR DEATH EVERY DAY
THERE’S NO ESCAPING THE HEAT
ONE SALVATION I KNOW
NUMB TEMPTATION, CUT IT OFF
DEATH TO THE WORLD
EMPTY SHELL OF WHAT IT’S MEANT TO BE
PLEASURES ROT AND RUST
DEATH TO THE WORLD
DEAD TO THIS DYING WORLD
DEAD TO THE WORLD

BURNING HEARTS AND HOLY HANDS
THE HEAVENS DESCEND IN SONGS AND SWEAT
UNITED IN YEARNING AND STRIVING FOR HEALING
COMMUNION’S BOND IN REDEEMED AGGRESSION
WE FOUGHT FOR SALVATION, HOPE AND HEALING
ARM IN ARM WE SAW YOU WE FELT IT
BURN, FELT OUR HEARTS BURN
FELT OUR HEARTS BURN
I KNOW, I KNOW YOU FELT IT TOO
BUT WHEN I RAISED MY HEAD AND LOOKED AROUND
I WAS PRAYING ALONE, MY ARMS DROPPED TO THE GROUND
MY FRIENDS HAD GONE, MY BROTHERS MOVED ON
DISPERSED AND DEJECTED, FORSAKEN, NEGLECTED
WOUNDED BY MEN, FORSAKEN BY GOD
I SEE THEM FALL AND FEEL AS MY EYES BURN
FEEL THE TEARS BURN, FEEL THE TEARS BURN
BURN, FEEL THE TEARS BURN, FEEL THE TEARS BURN
WHY DID THIS HAPPEN?
WHY DID WE FAIL?
WHAT COULD I HAVE DONE?
NOW I’M LEFT HERE WITH THIS LONELINESS
THE UNMET WISH FOR WHAT WE COULD HAVE BEEN
BUT THEIR PATH IS ONLY THEIR OWN
WHAT COULD I HAVE DONE?
ONLY YOUR HAND CAN HOLD US FAST
AS THEY CRUCIFY OVER AGAIN
I LOVED YOU AS YOUR FAITH DIED
AND THOUGH IT TORE ME APART WHEN YOU WALKED AWAY
I FEEL YOUR PAIN, I SEE YOUR HURT
MAYBE YOU HATE AND REJECT ME BUT BROTHER
I CAN’T DENY THAT WHAT WE WERE WAS REAL
THIS DREAM WAS NEVER MEANT TO BURN
NOT MEANT TO BURN, NOT MEANT TO BURN
BURN, NOT MEANT TO BURN, NOT MEANT TO BURN
WHY DID THEY LEAVE YOU?
WHAT DON’T I SEE?
WHAT COULD YOU HAVE DONE?
FORETASTE OF HEAVEN NOW MELTING AWAY
THIRST FOR HOLY WATER ON THIS BARREN EARTH
BUT THIS PLACE WAS NEVER OUR HOME
WHAT COULD YOU HAVE DONE?
WE’LL FEAST AND DRINK LIVING WATER AT YOUR THRONE
IT JUST REMINDS ME
IT JUST REMINDS ME
IT JUST REMINDS ME
THIS WORLD IS NOT MY HOME
OUR TIME WILL COME
WHEN ALL IS NEW
DEATH SWALLOWED UP
OUR TIME WILL COME
TEARS WIPED AWAY
DISGRACE REMOVED
OUR TIME WILL COME
OUR TIME WILL COME
TOGETHER UNDER YOUR SUN
OUR TIME WILL COME
HAND IN HAND WE’LL SING YOUR SONGS
OUR TIME TO BURN

PURIFIED
NAILS AND SCREWS CONTORT
DEFORM THESE STINGING NERVES
WRITHE IN PAIN THROUGH THE HAZE
PURGE IMPURITIES AND BLEED
TORMENT FADES TO BLACK
AS MY CONSCIOUSNESS DARKENS
CRUCIFORM
SEPARATED FLESH AND BONE FROM DISLOCATED JOINTS
AND TENDONS TORN THROUGH SHREDDED SKIN
IT SEARS THROUGH AS AGONY
BLINDED BY AFFLICTION
DESPERATE TO DISASSOCIATE
NUMB THIS PAIN
LET ME DIE
PURIFIED
RESTORATION, REJUVENATION
MY STRENGTH RETURNS
BLISTERED PALMS RAISE AGAIN IN PRAISE
I ADMIT I NEVER THOUGHT THERE’D BE SO MUCH BLOOD
BUT I SHOULD HAVE SINCE THEY SHOWED ME THE CROSS
WE DO NOT LOSE HEART
THOUGH SUFFER PERISH AND FADE THE OUTWARD MAN
DAY BY DAY RENEWED
KNOWING GLORY’S WEIGHT BEHIND THE LIFE OF ALL
PURIFIED
BY THIS LIGHT AFFLICTION
CRUCIFORM

YOU CALLED AND I WALKED THROUGH THE SHADOW OF DEATH
A WILLING BURNT OFFERING THAT DIED AND GAVE ALL
OBEYED IN THE SILENCE WHERE FEW OTHERS STOOD
TOOK PRIDE IN MY SACRIFICE
FOOLISHLY JUDGED BY CONTRAST
NO TIME TO KNEEL
CHAINED IN THE DARKNESS
LIGHT WILL REVEAL
DEFIANT AND PROUD IN HOLY GARB
FRONTING AS HUMBLE BUT HOLLOW INSIDE
EASY TO SEE MY BRAVE FACE
IS JUST SHAME COVERED IN WEAKNESS
JADED BEHIND THIS SMILE
HIDING MY HATRED, WEARY OF DOING GOOD
DRANK DOWN THE WELL TO EMPTY
UNINSPIRING, UNFORGIVING
LIVING A LIE AS MY HOME BECAME A LIFELESS SHELL
NO TIME TO KNEEL
CHAINED IN THE DARKNESS
LIGHT WILL REVEAL
HOLY EYES PIERCE THROUGH OUR FACADES
THE NIGHT IS FAR GONE, THE DAY IS AT HAND
EXCUSES WILL MELT IN THE FIRE OF YOUR PRESENCE
I FEEL THE CRUSHING WEIGHT OF EVERY EVIL WORD
CHOKING ON REMORSE, MOURNING CHANCES LOST
THROUGH REPENTANCE TEARS
FOR THE DEBT OF DECEITFUL YEARS
I PLEAD MERCY
EVERY DEED LAID BARE
REVEALED, DISPLAYED, EXPOSED AT THE JUDGMENT THRONE
EVERY DEED LAID BARE
EVERYTHING CONCEALED IN HOLY GARB WILL BE REVEALED
