Verse 1:
The drought is here
Not a cloud up in the atmosphere
The well is dry
The heat beats down there’s no shade to hide
The desert wind blows
On dusty trails that barely show
They place their bets
Wondering is this as good as it ever gets

And I feel it coming down my face
Watch the rain…fall down upon me
And I feel it coming down my face
Watch the rain…fall down…(Fall down upon me yeah)

Never finding the river’s flow
That dying thirst
Will be no more if we get there first

Watch the rain…fall down…(Fall down upon me yeah)

Can you feel it…Come and fill this place
Can you feel it…feel the water come and fill this place

Watch the rain…fall down upon me
And I feel it coming down my face
Watch the rain…fall down…(Fall down upon me yeah)

Verse: 1
You have glass bones…and paper skin
Self-inflicting….the pain within
Always bathing…in the mud
Won’t you drink from, this glass of blood
Pre-Chorus:
There is another way, new life can start today
Open up your eyes…put away all those lies
Chorus:
Take his hand…walk into the light
It’s time to take a stand, It’s time to understand
Verse 2:
You don’t hear me, I don’t make a sound
Burried in rubble, 10 feet under ground
You keep searching, faces in the crowd
Never to be…NEVER TO BE FOUND
Chorus:
Take his hand…walk into the light
It’s time to take a stand, It’s time to understand
My God has given me, Everlasting Love
He gave his only son, It will never be undone

There is another way, new life can start today
Open up your eyes…put away all those lies
Chorus:
Take his hand…walk into the light

He gave his only son, It will never be undone

Verse 1:
Predicted alibi, walking on a tightrope
Honesty subsides, now you‘ve got scapegoat
Distant enemy, temped by a skeptic
Distorted memory, seeking but rejected
Verse 2:
I see the fear in all their eyes not knowing where to turn
I feel compelled to let you know, the lessons I have learned
Along the road of discontent I’ve had my share of doubts
Not in You who lifts me up in the passion that’s run out
Chorus:
After all that’s been said and done, Only one thing…shall remain
All the battles, lost and won…There is a remedy for the pain
Verse 3:
The chairs are full of skeptics , pompous in their demands
Choose for you their thinking, but have lost all their commands
Now looking for some sympathy, they hide behind the fences
Looking through stained-glass windows perched on sacred benches
Chorus:
After all that’s been said and done, Only one thing…shall remain
All the battles, lost and won…There is a remedy for the pain
Bridge:
Disrespect full of madness, the ideas conjured up
Foolishness received with gladness, but now the time is up
Proclaim an independence, freedom to make your choice
Living up to expectations, never knowing the owners voice.
Chorus:
After all that’s been said and done, Only one thing…shall remain
All the battles, lost and won…There is a remedy for the pain
Chorus:
After all that’s been said and done, Only one thing…shall remain
All the battles, lost and won…There is a remedy for the pain

Verse 1:
You’re off to slumber counting 10 to 1
Wondering if there is some place new left to run
You got exactly where you started and there’s nowhere else to find in time
Verse 2:
Its times like these you wish your life was more
Seems like the best of you is someone else’s floor
You know that time is not your… ally and you look for help and you wonder why
Chorus:
Will this happiness I know, help to fill the hole…I feel…inside
But If this happiness I feel, somehow isn’t real…I will… survive.
Verse 3:
Every day is a new start if you know the way
Given the chance you’d find it but this is what you say
The weights of life they start to pull me down…deeper and deeper I sink into the ground
Over my head these feelings that abound, if it was water I know I’d surely drown.
Chorus:
Will this happiness I know, help to fill the hole…I feel…inside
But If this happiness I feel, somehow isn’t real…I will… survive.
Verse 4:
Every day is a new start if you know the way
Given the chance you’d find it but this is what you say
The weights of life they start to pull me down…deeper and deeper I sink into the ground
Over my head these feelings that abound, if it was water I know I’d surely drown.

Verse 1:
In creation we are fighting
In creation we are crying
And I’m wondering why we aren’t smiling…too much lying…mostly dying

In a moment we are ready
In that moment we are deadly
And I’m wondering why it’s so filling…we’re so willing… all this killing
We are…Killing
Chorus:
All out of reasons…why we give it up… we should live it up
All out of seasons…waiting for the next one never living this one
We cannot fight it…we will never win it, without love in it
Time to stop this treason… it starts today with you…what are you gonna do
Verse 3:
We are different…feel the tension
So very different…apprehension
And I’m wondering why we see the broken…it’s not spoken…too much jokin’
We are…Joking
WE ARE…Joking
WE ARE…Killing
WE ARE…Dying
Chorus:
All out of reasons…why we give it up… we should live it up
All out of seasons…waiting for the next one never living this one
We cannot fight it…we will never win it, without love in it
