See heavy in the skies tonight
See heavy in the world outside
See heavy in the people's eyes
Can you lift my head
When the sun outside refuse to shine
Can you raise this dead
When the heavy thoughts weigh down my mind
Clouds heavy, it comes raining down
Pit-patter, it's a heavy sound
Breathes life unto a heavy ground
Can you lift my head
When the sun outside refuse to shine
Can you raise this dead
When the heavy thoughts weigh down my mind
Clouds forming behind heavy eyes
Grow heavy as the old world dies
Rains down and brings the dead to life
Can you lift my head
When the heavy thoughts weigh down my mind
Can you raise this dead
As the hands hang heavy by my side

"You Don't Give Love A Chance To Grow"
You don't give love a chance to grow
You're so quick to uproot the flower
To have it for yourself
It's pretty but it never stays
It shrivels and fades away
You could have a garden
You could have a garden
But you don't want to put the time in
You could have a garden
You could have a garden
But you don't want to put the time in
Love needs both sun and rain
But you only give it sunny days
Won't be long before the warmth outside
Is its detriment to life
Leaves turn in anticipation
Petals gaze up at the sky
Don't tear it from its foundation
To be the apple of your eye
It'll wither and die
You could have a garden
You could have a garden
But you don't want to put the time in
You could have a garden
You could have a garden
But you don't want to put the time in
You're so quick to uproot the flower
To have it for yourself
It's pretty but it never stays
It shrivels and fades away
You could have a garden
You could have a garden
But you don't want to put the time in
You could have a garden
You could have a garden
But you don't want to put the time in
Love needs both sun and rain
But you only give it sunny days
Won't be long before the warmth outside
Is its detriment to life
Leaves turn in anticipation
Petals gaze up at the sky
Don't tear it from its foundation
To be the apple of your eye
It'll wither and die
You could have a garden
You could have a garden
But you don't want to put the time in
You could have a garden
You could have a garden
But you don't want to put the time in
"A Filling Fire"
When the world has shaken me
Singing, why have you forsaken me?
When I've gotten out my blasphemies
Tell me what do you expect of me
Cause I've heard all the words you say
And I've tried to put them on display
When I've fallen short in every way
Tell me what do you expect of me
When I come to Your feet
Saying take all of me
And I mean it truthfully
But the days feel so heavy
When the world has blinded me
Oh so woefully reminded me
Of the person that I used to be
Tell me what do you expect of me
Do I deny all that I comprehend
Try to compromise and make amends
I've striving to be genuine
Tell me can you bring it to an end
When I come to Your feet
Saying take all of me
And I mean it truthfully
But the days feel so heavy
Trying to live righteously
Stepping back to let You lead
Wondering why, not joyfully
It starts to feel so empty
But You are a fire, a filling fire
That I need so desperately
Be my eyes, by my sight, so I can see the end of me
So I can leap from my breach
To the safety of Your reach
I'm so in need, so sow in me
The everlasting
Singing, why have you forsaken me?

The everlasting
"In Complete"
I am incomplete
I am in complete love with you
For all your promises are new
Every morning
Help me to see them
Clear as day
I am incomplete
I am in complete love with you
Though I am blinded by the night
And the doubts of this present time
I'll be waiting for the light
To cover me
I fell in the street
Cold hands and gravel meet in need of you
Another call of desperation
To the ground
Even lost in the frustration
You're with me now
I am incomplete
I am in complete need of you
I'm reminded in the stillness
And in the waking of forgiveness
And I won't survive without Your life
Your Words are guiding me
I am the bride of Jesus Christ
I've found missing piece
Complete, complete, complete me
Complete, complete, complete me
Complete, complete, complete me
Complete, complete, completely
I am in complete love with you
For all your promises are new
Every morning
Help me to see them
Clear as day
I am incomplete
I am in complete love with you
Though I am blinded by the night
And the doubts of this present time
I'll be waiting for the light
To cover me
I fell in the street
Cold hands and gravel meet in need of you
Another call of desperation
To the ground
Even lost in the frustration
You're with me now
I am incomplete
I am in complete need of you
I'm reminded in the stillness
And in the waking of forgiveness
And I won't survive without Your life
Your Words are guiding me
I am the bride of Jesus Christ
I've found missing piece
Complete, complete, complete me
Complete, complete, complete me
Complete, complete, complete me
Complete, complete, completely
"Good Soil"
Some fell upon the path
Some fell among the rocks
Some fell among the thorns
Some eaten by the birds
Some dried up by the sun
Some choked out by the thorns
But you who stay upon the good soil
You who rooted deep
In the promise you received
You who rest upon the good soil
You who hear and see
Will bear a fruitful tree
Some fell upon the path
Some fell among the rocks
Some fell among the thorns
Some eaten by the birds
Some dried up by the sun
Some swept up in the storm
But you who stay upon the good soil
You who rooted deep
In the promise you received
You who rest upon the good soil
You who hear and see
Will bear a fruitful tree
Not all who cry out
Singing "Lord, Lord"
Will enter into the kingdom
Not everyone who cites
His Word, Word
Will truly know its freedom

"Do You Ever Wonder Why You're So Alone?"
A message that you sent
With no recipient
A bottle that you tossed
Into the lapping sea
If someone came along
To read it and respond
And found a blank page
Would you keep on waiting?
When you know, know
That something's gotta show
But it keeps on passing over
You never seem to see, see
That what you really need
You just keep passing over
A whisper in your heart
That shines itself out of the dark
A glimmer that you show
Just for a moment
When someone gets a glimpse
And tries to read your lips
Don't pull away
The timing's golden
When you know, know
That something's gotta show
But it keeps on passing over
You never seem to see, see
That what you really need
You just keep passing over
Do you ever wonder why
You're so alone
Could it be you're
Tensing up like stone
So nobody can reach your heart
When you know, know
That something's gotta show
But it keeps on passing over
You're where you need to be
You only have to see
You let it pass you over
Don't let it pass you over
With no recipient
A bottle that you tossed
Into the lapping sea
If someone came along
To read it and respond
And found a blank page
Would you keep on waiting?
When you know, know
That something's gotta show
But it keeps on passing over
You never seem to see, see
That what you really need
You just keep passing over
A whisper in your heart
That shines itself out of the dark
A glimmer that you show
Just for a moment
When someone gets a glimpse
And tries to read your lips
Don't pull away
The timing's golden
When you know, know
That something's gotta show
But it keeps on passing over
You never seem to see, see
That what you really need
You just keep passing over
Do you ever wonder why
You're so alone
Could it be you're
Tensing up like stone
So nobody can reach your heart
When you know, know
That something's gotta show
But it keeps on passing over
You're where you need to be
You only have to see
You let it pass you over
Don't let it pass you over
"Dial-Up"
We've
Got a bad
Connection
So like a Youtube video
I'll pause and wait for you
To catch up
To me
I'll close the other tabs
If that's what it takes
To keep this thing running
Now we're up to speed
But oh, don't lower
The quality
Don't compromise clarity
Keep it at 1080p
So we can see things clearly
All these 1's and 0's
Numbers I could dial up
So we could stop
Speaking in binary
Tests and trials of
Long suffering
But it seems we're always buffering
Oh, it seems we're always buffering
We're
Both
Straddling the line
We're either on or off
The connection's
Never good enough
So we give each other signals
And frequent bars
Hoping that a satellite can save us
