Альбом Trading Yesterday

Open up my eyes
To dreams that should have died
I was made for more than this

Take away my name
For I will never be the same
I have not begun to live

For Eden's sons engulf my eyes
Bringing my heart to life

I will be a revolution
Be a voice beyond these lies
If it takes my life
And I will not be lost in silence
I will not let darkness hide
This hope beyond my sight
The revolution

A criminal's reward
Is all that I lived for
Until these broken years were healed

The shadows of a shattered life
Only returns to light

And I will be a revolution
Be a voice beyond these lies
If it takes my life
And I will not be lost in silence
I will not let darkness hide
This hope beyond my sight
The revolution

For every lie I believed
Brought me to Him
For I have been set free
To live again
(the shadows of a shattered life only returns to die)

And I will be a revolution
Be a voice beyond these lies
If it takes my life
And I will not be lost in silence
I will not let darkness hide
This hope beyond my sight
The reason for my life
The revolution

Using every single breath
Crying out for hope...

The Revolution

If you'll be my source of strength
All I'm living for.

For I have been set free
To live again

If I could change the currents of our lives
To make the river flow where it's run dry
To be a prodigal of father time
Then I would see you tonight

If I could find the years that went away
Destroying all the cruelty of fate
I must believe that love could find a way
Tonight

Lonely finds me
One day you will come
But I'll wait for love's sake
One day to me, love

If I could see beyond the here and now
If you could hear me calling you somehow
If I could know that love is reaching out
To find you with me tonight

Then hope could make these promises come true
Beyond what I could say, what love can do
With every moment leading me to you tonight

Lonely finds me
One day you will come
But I'll wait for love's sake
One day to me, love

I will stay forever here to wait for your love

If I could change the currents of our lives
To make the river flow where it's run dry
To be a prodigal of father time
Then I would see you tonight

Lonely finds me
One day you will come
But I'll wait for love's sake
One day to me, love

Lonely finds me
One day you will come
But I'll wait for love's sake
One day to me, love
One day to me, love
One day to me, love

I will stay forever here to wait for your love

If all the flowers faded away
And if all the storm clouds decided to stay
Then you would find me each hour the same
She is tomorrow and I am today

And if right is leaving I'd rather be wrong
She is the sunlight and the sun is gone

If loving her is a heartache for me
And if holding her means that I have to bleed
Then I am the martyr and love is to blame
She is the healing and I am the pain
She lives in a daydream where I don't belong
She is the sunlight and the sun is gone

And if right is leaving I'd rather be wrong
She is the sunlight and the sun is gone
She is the sunlight and the sun is gone

Shadow days come to haunt me here
To wrap around me
Dark and cold to hide the sunlight from my eyes

I can not see beyond these clouds surrounding
I will not forget that this is not the end

Under my skin
Under these scars
Take me again
Tear me apart
Cause I wanna see
Everything you are
Til all that's left
Is not myself

This is life every second here
Gripping tighter
Empty praise to all the things I fear inside

But I know that you will rise up from these ashes
Tomorrow will be the light that guides me

Under my skin
Under these scars
Take me again
Tear me apart
Cause I wanna see
Everything you are
Til all that's left
Is not myself

Take away everything
Burn away all of me
As I break I believe
You will come to rescue

Under my skin
Under these scars
Take me again
Tear me apart
Cause I wanna see
Everything you are
Til all that's left
Is not myself

Under my skin
Under these scars
Take me again
Tear me apart
Cause I wanna see
Everything you are
Til all that's left
Is not myself

Take away everything
Burn away all of me
As I break I believe
You will come to rescue

You will come to rescue...

And there you stand opened heart--opened doors
full of life with the world that's wanting more.
But I can see when the lights start to fade,
the day is done and your smile has gone away.

Let me raise you up.
Let me be your love.

May I hold you
as you fall to sleep,
when the world is closing in
and you can't breathe.
May I love you.
May I be your shield.
When no one can be found
may I lay you down.

All I want is to keep you safe from the cold...
to give you all that your heart needs the most.

Let me raise you up
Let me be your love

[chorus]
May I hold you (hold you)
as you fall to sleep.
When the world is closing in
and you can't breathe,
may I love you. (love you)
May I be your shield.
When no one can be found,
may I lay you down.

[bridge]
All that's made me (made me)
Is all worth trading (worth trading)
just to have one moment with you.
So I will let go (will let go)
all that I know (that I know)
knowing that you're here with me.

For your love is changing me.

[chorus]
May I hold you
as you fall to sleep.
When the world is closing in
and you can't breathe,
may I love you.
May I be your shield.
when no one can be found
may I lay you down

I've got to walk away while there's still hope
Learn to erase the love I know
And let you go
'Cause what I thought was love was only lies
Taking what you want, left me behind
As my heart dies

So here we are again
Knowing this will never end
So I must let go

This is my last goodbye
Leaving all the memories of you behind
I will not wait here
And waste my whole life
Waste my whole life

I can see you now with opened eyes
When you come around I realize
That I don't need you to survive

I will not begin
The fight that we could never end
So I am letting go

This is my last goodbye
Leaving all the memories of you behind
I will not wait here
And waste my whole life
Waste my whole life...

My passion, my poison
The life and death of me
I can't take you taking everything
From a love never meant to be

This is my last goodbye
Leaving all the memories of you behind
I will not wait here
And waste my whole life

This is my last goodbye
This will be my final tear for love to die
I will not wait here
And waste my whole life
With my last goodbye

Emily will find a better place to fall asleep
She belongs to fairy tales that I could never be
The future haunts with memories that I could never have
And hope is just a stranger wondering how it got so bad

I die each time you look away
My heart, my life will never be the same
This love will take my everything
One breath, one touch will be the end of me

You could be the final straw that brings me back to earth
Ever-waiting airports full of the love that you deserve
Wishing I could find a way to wash away the past
Knowing that my heart
Will break, but at least the pain will last

I die each time you look away
My heart, my life will never be the same
This love will take my everything
One breath, one touch will be the end of me

Emily will find a better place to fall asleep
Maybe she will save me in the oceans of her dream
And maybe someday love
Maybe someday love
Maybe someday love

If I hold my hand
would i change where you're standing now?
Just come back to me

Leave all you've found
that's keeping your heart on the ground
just come back to me

So afraid for love to come around your heart again
when it's the only thing you need
just come back to me

Calling out your name
wishing you could do the same
just come back to me

whatever it takes
i will wait until my dying day
just come back to me

so afraid for love to come around your heart again
when it's the only thing you need
just come back to me

this is my only hope
that the love that will not let me go
will find its way back into your life
so i will not close my eyes
until i see you by my side
loving me tonight

If i hold out my hand
would it change where you're standing now?
Just come back to me

Blinding darkness surrounds me
And I am reaching for you only
This hopelessness that drowns all that I believe
Will be the one thing that I need
For you only

There's a hunger slowly growing
And chasing shadows but never knowing
If all that I have done is keeping me from you
Can the arms of mercy bring the rescue to return to you

But I'm so far
But I'm so far
But I'm so far
So far from home

Keep on running farther, faster
Keep on searching for this haunting has an answer
And I know you will find me, in orbit
For I am breathing only for this.
For you only. For you only. For you only

But I'm so far
But I'm so far
But I'm so far
So far from home

Wait, waiting for a sign, crying to the sky
For love to come around so hope won't let me down
Shadows carry on, the light is all but gone
Your promise calls to me, a love so rescue me

There is a hope beyond this night
There is a Savior in the sky
Giving His life to set this world on fire

Here, before the flames begin, may passion burn within
Our anthem as we wait, for love to save the day

There is a hope beyond this night
There is a Savior in the sky
Giving his life to set this world on fire

So as the darkness closes in
Know that the sun will shine again
Bringing salvation to a world on fire

As our king you will bring, Your truth, to guide and keep us
All of hell, can not prevail against Your love

May Your light (waiting for a sign)
Take my life (crying to the sky)
Set my heart (for love to come around)
On fire (so hope won't let me down)

There is a hope beyond this life (May Your light)
There is a Savior in the sky (Take my life)
Giving his life to set this world on fire (Set my heart on fire)

So as the darkness closes in
Know that the sun will shine again
Bringing salvation to a world on fire

I haven't seen the sun in seven days
I can't remember when I saw your face
But I still believe that you led me through the wilderness
And you have not forgotten me through all of this

A million miles have led me to this place
Where all I've ever loved has been erased
Changing my song to a disenchanted lullaby
With a name I never really felt was mine

But I have learned that I can't earn any love you've given
So I'm finding hope in letting go of all that I have made

Because the pain defining me is holding me lifeless
So I am waiting patiently for you to change my name

Open up to my heart's surgery
The waiting room's of my reality
Where I still believe there's a purpose to this pain inside
And you are not, not leaving me here to die

But formless hope will never know while the storm is raging
So I will strive to stay alive in these waves

Because the pain defining me is holding me lifeless
So I am waiting patiently for you

Because the pain defining me is holding me lifeless
So I am waiting patiently for you
I am waiting for you to change my name
To change my name

Watch your step, love is broken
I am every tear you cry
Save your breath, your heart has spoken
You already have my life

For I am finding out that love will kill and save me
Taking the dreams that made me up
And tearing them away
But the same love will take this heart that's barely beating
And fill it with hope beyond the stars
Only love

Another day, another sunrise
Washing over everything
In its time, love will be mine
The beauty and the tragedy

For I am finding out that love will kill and save me
Taking the dreams that made me up
And tearing them away
But the same love will take this heart that's barely beating
And fill it with hope beyond the stars
Only love
Only love, love, love

For I am finding out that love will kill and save me

Yesterday I died, tomorrow's bleeding
Fall into your sunlight
The future's open wide beyond believing
To know why hope dies
Losing what was found, a world so hollow
Suspended in a compromise
The silence of this sound is soon to follow
Somehow sundown

And finding answers is forgetting
All of the questions we call home
Passing the graves of the unknown

Reason clouds my eyes, with splendor fading
Illusions of the sunlight
A reflection of a lie will keep me waiting
With love gone for so long

And this day's ending is the proof of time killing all the faith I know
Knowing that faith is all that I hold

Yesterday I died, tomorrow's bleeding
Fall into your sunlight
