Lyrics don't have to
rhyme, so I spend a lot of time trying to make them do it
against their will. |

Stumbling without
destination
I've walked this road before
Thumbing through the invitations
Knocking at my door
In the distance, shadows forming
Fighting to resist temptation
Dig a deeper hole
Stealing from the poorest nation
To redeem my soul
Sliding closer to the edge
Trading sorrow for regret
Broken but unbending I can never get enough
So I search for greater love
Spoken for pretending mere affection is enough
As I search for greater love
Justified as medication
Used to lick my wounds
Objects of infatuation
Play me for the fool
Voice inside me, almost shouting
You can be a new creation
I can feel your pain
There's no sense in this sensation
You need more than shame
I admit I need some help
I can't fight this by myself
Broken but unbending I can never get enough
So I search for greater love
Spoken for pretending mere affection is enough
As I search for greater love
Father I'm tired of playing these games
And of making pretend
That my life has been changed
I know that you saved me
I need you to change me

Who trusts a golden
heart
To one who stands in tarnished armor?
Who looks for new romances
In the broken hearted masses?
Whose love will always wait
Through shades of faith infatuated
It's a beautiful contradiction
It's the mystery in the friction
It's a heavenly inhibition
It's the nature of grace I can never escape
There goes my armor plated alibi
Can't sleep when I'm alone
Cause you are everything
Anyone could ever be to me
There goes unsatiated appetite
Through no fault of my own
You are everything
Anyone could ever be to me
Who braves the fire to bear the flame
Illuminating everything?
This is desire without restraint
This is how worlds are rearranged
It's a beautiful contradiction
It's the mystery in the friction
It's a heavenly inhibition
It's the nature of grace I can never escape
There goes my armor plated alibi
Can't sleep when I'm alone
Cause you are everything
Anyone could ever be to me
There goes unsatiated appetite
Through no fault of my own
You are everything
Anyone could ever be to me |

It's a kind of
self-obsession
She can't help herself at all
Sliding deepening regression
Staring at the wall
Every day she asks the question:
"How can anyone love me
If they see in my reflection
What I see?"
Brought to her knees
By shadows she tries to please
Oh please, can you help her now
To see that she's so beautiful
To me
It's just a whisper
But every mirror magnifies the voice
Tries to tell her that the world
Doesn't love this little girl
And how I miss her
But my opinion's drowning in the noise
Try to tell her that the world
Doesn't know this little girl
She's on her knees
I know you hear her plea
Oh please, can you help her now
To feel you love somehow
Oh please, can you help her
To see she's so beautiful
Mirror, mirror on the wall
You've said your fill tonight
Seven years a bargain, a small price to pay
To save her life
Cause she's so beautiful
I hope she stands but if she falls
I know she'll be all right
Seven years a bargain a small price to pay
To save her life
Cause she's so beautiful

It's time to go
I've been surprised
How much you can hide
Behind a smile
I wonder who you think you're fooling
You're scared, I
know
Try not to care
But you can't help thinking
A smile
Could be all the good you bring
You can face it now or never
Move to sever the lies that hold you back
You've been given the power to choose
What you believe
And I'm not afraid of that
Each day you spin your circles
Battles you fight, you lose, you win
Each night you wonder why
God loves you much more than you can
He loves you much more than you can
He knows you need him to love
He knows you need him too
He knows you need him
He knows you need
He knows you
He knows
You can face it now or never
Move to sever the lies that hold you back
You've been given the power to choose
What you believe
And I'm not afraid of that
And when it's time to cross that line
I'm not afraid, not afraid
Each day you spin in circles
Battles you fight, you lose, you win
Each night you wonder why
God love you much more than you can
He loves you so much that you can move |

March the
Unafraid.mp3 (Old School TMD) |

Carnival, carousel
Spins me around
I can't reach the ground
As the time slips away
Growing up, it's hard to stop
Spinning around
My feet drag the ground
As I watch the parade
Then a voice in the crowd
Spins me around
I'm lost or I'm found by what I heard today
I'm lost or I'm found as the Spirit did say |
In the parade
March the unafraid
Footsteps shiver
Up and down my spine
Circle spinner
Searching for a line
Love delivers
Heart and soul and mind
And I'll conquer the world
When I conquer my fear of
Losing myself in this surrender
Tender mercy, never failing grace
Eternal Love
Shadows splinter
One step at a time
Summer's winter
Purpose redefined
A still voice whispers
Heart and soul and...
As I concede
One more part of me
(your love will set me free)
I truly live
And I'll conquer the world
When I conquer my fear of
Losing myself in this adventure
This December kiss
It's not too late
Be unafraid
And I'll conquer the world
When I conquer my fear of
Losing myself in this surrender
March the unafraid
Live the unafraid
Love the unafraid |

Picasso.mp3

She's got amethyst
eyes
And the sweetest smile
And love to sweep me away
Her voice could answer the phone in heaven
I leave my number every time I pray
I would sing you a love song
But love will not be constrained
By stumbling words and devotion inferred
But I love her, just the same
She's got nothing to hide
And the mystery
Will somehow remain
We are 2 hearts frozen in mid-emotion
The last time I saw her is where I'm gonna stay
Though oceans may separate lovers
Love will not be constrained
By distance and time and the dotted lines
And choices we have to make
Oh the choices
Sometimes they break me
I would sing you a love song
But love will not be constrained
By stumbling words and devotion inferred
But I love her, just the same
I love her, just the same
She sweeps me away |
You're a Picasso
And you rock and roll
At the art show
In your dreams
You're a superstar
You know who you are
Is that your fancy car?
Your limousine?
You're an angel with guilty wings
Held together by bits of string
But you were made to fly
On wings of grace personified
In love
You're an athlete
With the smelly feet
At the track meet
You're a machine
You're a diet cop
In a donut shop
The guilt trip never stops
Try one with cream
You're an angel with guilty wings
Held together by bits of string
But you were made to fly
On wings of grace personified
In love
You're a Romeo
Our of mistletoe
Your cup overflows
With Listerine
I'm a misfit
But I'm ok with it
Cause I'm not perfect
But I'm me
We're all doing our best
At being ourselves
But not today
God takes me as I am
But loves me too much
To let me stay that way |
