A Way Out It is a prison that was formed in my heart from the moment of my conception It is an illness that has made its stay, filling my life with its deception It takes me high and low. Oh my mind, it loses control The moment I let it have it's way, I play a deadly game with my soul
I know this poison. I feel it around me The moment it closes in I'm reminded
You created a way out You created a way out In my darkest of times You created a way out
Now with this penalty that's set in stone for my life of dereliction I sit here waiting for my fate to fall under the weight of my conviction But payment long ago gave me might to overthrow Now with authority to traverse the well because You claimed my soul
I knew that poison. I felt it around me The moment it closes in I'm reminded
My way out, You are my way out My way out, You are my way out My way out, You are my way out My way out, You are my way out
Vices It all begins when I wake. The curtains rise, the show begins I play my part out to perfection with inward illness existing Though freedom's at my disposal, my heart longs for verbal approval That never seems to satisfy. The need for it just multiplies
Cause all we see is, what's on the surface Nobody's talking, but everybody's got their vices Everybody's got that thing that they've been fighting
The thought of it is distressing. The minutes, hours, and days accumulating With self fulfilling pleasure. But was it truly fulfilling Cause one thing leads to another, and my vindication is deceptive comfort That never seems to satisfy. The need for it just multiplies
We gotta work We gotta work it out This is a battle We gotta work for something better
I Have it all Corporation declining all the while selling a lie Community at a stand still while we wait for life to satisfy I'm convinced there is more to the picture than what is before my eyes So from this day moving forward I'll delight in my heart's desire
I have it all Lord I have it all Even when there is nothing in my life to call my own I have it
Infection spread to the body with no remedy in sight An operation is needed to remove what does not glorify I'm convinced there is more to the picture than what is before my eyes So from this day moving forward I'll delight in my heart's desire
You are, you are You are by my, by my By my side, by my side Because of you Lord
One Thing She stands waiting as I walk along with mystery in her eyes She's searching for her next victim from her dwelling. Her words are filled with lies
She only wants one thing. shes got that hypnotize She only wants one thing. It will cost you your life
One by one I see them slip away into the dark of night As she seduces, her words so illusive. She convinces them its right
What is given cannot be regained It's here today and gone tomorrow Her heart cold with emptiness And it feeds on other's pain and sorrow
It Was You Looking back to the moment selfishness arrived It entered discreetly but soon nothing else could survive It made my decisions whether or not I was aware I'm grateful to One who felt that I was not beyond repair
All the things I called my own at one time These are the things given with purpose and design
It was You Oh Lord it was You It was You all along
I didn't know it. I could not see with my own eyes I needed a healer to remove the things I idolized My own achievements and bringing glory to my name Because of the healer my life will never be the same
