This song got me through some really hard times. I hope it does the same for you.
A thousand times I've failed
Still your mercy remains
Should I stumble again
Still I'm caught in your grace
Everlasting
Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending
Your glory goes beyond all fame
Your will above all else
My purpose remains
The art of losing myself
In bringing you praise
Everlasting
Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending
Your glory goes beyond all fame
My heart and my soul
I give you control
Consume me from the inside out, Lord
Let justice and praise
Become my embrace
To love you from the inside out
Everlasting
Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending
Your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart is to bring you praise
From the inside out
Lord, my soul cries out
From the inside out
Lord, my soul cries out to you ♪ ♫ ♪
I can make you mad
I can make you scream
I can make you cry
I can make you leave
I can make you hate me
For everything
But I can't make you come back to me
I can make a world
Out of broken dreams
I can make you say things
You don't mean
I can unmake
All we were made to be
But I can't make you come back to me ♪ ♫ ♪
When all you gotta keep is strong
Move along, move along like I know ya do
And even when your hope is gone
Move along, move along just to make it through ♪ ♫ ♪
Do you have the time to listen to me whine
About nothing and everything all at once?
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it
Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?
Or am I just stoned? ♪ ♫ ♪
Laughing like we're crazy
Nothing mattered
Nothing fazed me
We were younger then
So much younger then
Everything seems rotten through
The eyes of the forgotten
And we were dumber then
So much dumber then
Well have I judged a book by how its bound
Am I lost or am I found
And are you with me?
Are you with me now
Come back from the dead
You've been inside your head for too long
Are you with me now
Find the places that scare you
Come on I dare you
Are you with me ♪ ♫ ♪
This bitterness inside is an empty space I hide
It never satisfies living my life in a lie
Love on borrowed time will never be yours nor mine
I'll just close my eyes, and it will be alright
Oh, it's good to be true
If our hopes and dreams come true
Wish that I had more
Of this borrowed time
If only it would last a lifetime ♪ ♫ ♪
I usually try to avoid sharing songs from the same band one after another, but man this song cannot be ignored. Ever since I heard this last week, I've been listening to it at least once a day. It's that good. If you like My Chemical Romance, especially the songs from their Danger Days album, then you will most likely love this one.
The Funeral Portrait is easily my best rock band discovery this year.
We're never getting out
Never getting out of here
They say just settle down
You're never getting out of this place
Welcome to Suffocate City
You think you've had enough
But, boy, that's just the half of it
That's when they pull the plug
You're never getting out of this place
Welcome to Suffocate City ♪ ♫ ♪
Dare I say this song aged well. Such a simple song with simple lyrics. Would have been a Throwback Thursday track, except it's only Tuesday, so whatever. Still sounds so good!
Alone at last
together in a photograph.
Our eyes are always open
devoted to perfection through silence.
What am I supposed to do?
Should I sit wait for you?
Listen to me screaming more. ♪ ♫ ♪
It's so hard to say that I'm sorry
I'll make everything alright
All these things that I've done
Now what have I become and where'd I go wrong?
I don't mean to hurt, just to put you first
I won't tell you lies (I'm sorry)
I will stand accused with my hand on my heart
I'm just trying to say
I'm sorry, it's all that I can say
You mean so much
And I'll fix all that I've done if I could start again
I'll throw it all away to the shadows of regrets
And you would have the best of me ♪ ♫ ♪
Another great song from The Funeral Portrait. The transition from the verses to the chorus, oh my, this songs sounds so good! I do hope that whoever wrote this song, or who has to deal with the same issue, that they do not let their dark thoughts get to them.
Can't drink, can't drug, can't drown 'em away
Can't sleep, can't think, can't find an escape
From these dark, dark thoughts in my mind, oh
Oh my head, my head, my head is a prison
No one ever visits
It's just you and me 'til the end, the end
Waiting out my sentence
If I find an exit, will you still follow me?
