Or is it the beginning Of a new and brighter birth? So how do you measure the worth of a man In wealth or strength or size? In how much he gained or how much he gave? The answer will come The answer will come to him who tries To look at his life through heaven's eyes BETTER THAN I I thought I did what's right I thought I had the answers I thought I chose the surest road But that road brought me here So I put up a fight And told you how to help me Now just when I have given up The truth is coming clear You know better than I You know the way SKULLS When all of our friends are dead and just a memory And we're side by side, it's always been just you and me For all to see When our lives are over and all that remains Are our skulls and bones let's take it to the grave And hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms I'll be buried here with you THIS IS HOME Belief over misery I've seen the enemy And I won't go back Back to how it was And I got my heart set on what happens next I got my eyes wide it's not over yet We are miracles and we're not alone This is home FOREIGNER'S GOD Screaming the name Of a foreigner's god The purest expression of grief All that I've been taught Every word I've got Is foreign to me COME AWAY TO THE WATER Come away little lamb Come away to the water To the arms that are waiting only for you Come away little lamb come away to the slaughter To the one appointed to see this through SINNER And I heard the walls are paper thin From where you are to where I am But I don’t feel a thing, If you are keep pulling strings And send on down a message please Light a boat, go home my dreams I’d just like to know That you hear me, that you're close |
