I've been building these walls
Framing these defenses
To keep you from
seeing what I've become
I've become a plague!
I’ve become a plague!
A parasite to all that I touch
A parasite!
The hull of my vessel
can never be shattered
but the winds with which I wrestle
Leave my sails torn and tattered
So I tie my ship to yours
and a blindfold for my eyes
as you guide me through these shores
I believe all your cunning lies
A beggar in a world of thieves
I've cheated more than death as I've ravaged the halls of innocence.
These hands have buried more than the truth.
The lies I created have turned into demons, haunting my dreams.
WE ARE LEGION, for we are many
WE ARE LEGION, they beckon me!
I am a dead man, where is the end?
I am a dead man, where is the truth?

Please don't hate me for what I'm about to say:
We are all degenerate
We are all degenerate
The products of a dying world in which we fight to survive
For emptiness we strive, chokes out our lives
We wander aimlessly
Running in this world
Run by dying men
Endlessly seeking favor
We count, gather
Pilage and spend
But the plagues that haunt us
Have no price tag
No easy send
And as we’ll grow to see
We only live long enough
to meet our end
This is the only thing the binds me!
A slavery to the only truth I’ve known!
Freedom from the bonds of ignorance
I’m free to see His countenance.
Keep it together
Or your passions will misinform your mind
Keep it together
Or your passions will misinform you mind
Oh how great
The Father’s
Love
For us.
This is the only thing the binds me!
A slavery to the only truth I’ve known!
Freedom from the bonds of ignorance
I’m free to see his countenance.

Oh how deep the Father’s love for us
How vast beyond all measure
That He would give His only Son
To make this wretch His treasure.

This what drives us, our minds are given to see this world as gain.
Our lives have become an endless cycle to a never ending game.
Seeking to find ourselves filled by this void so vast.
But in the end this world was never meant to last.
I am here to show you
This is not the end
This life is more than diamonds and gravestones
When you see that we are
Meant for some greater purpose
Then you will see this world through my eyes
Are we so blind, that we can't see?
This world is never what it seems to be.
We've given in to their deceit
Like lambs to slaughter
The "gods" of this nation have
drained every ounce of our humanity
I am here to show you
This is not the end
This life is more than diamonds and gravestones
When you see that we are
Meant for some greater purpose
Then you will see the world through my eyes
You see, we all have this tendency to seek fulfillment in ourselves
But there we find none for we are broken!
And these rattling bones and this dying flesh
Could never make us whole
Oh where is your peace
Do you even sleep
Are you weary from running
for the prize, for the crown
the crown of life!
The crown that He wore
The sorrow He bore
For the sake of your soul!
