Sanctus Real Album

It is not safe to assume that I am like me... in anyway.
I do not even like the taste of broken words or my broken promises.
I will not even waste my time here.

I know what I've been called to be
I know it won't include me
You're trouble, You're wasted
You know I just won't take this
Sink or Swim

There is no place for you in what I am called to do
Heart undergraced, I do not understand the way...
You curse, you bend my words,
you just praise Jesus to be heard.
When will we ever learn?

I know what I've been called to do
I know it won't include you
You're trouble, You're wasted
You know I just won't take this
Sink or Swim

You're trouble,
You're wasted.
You're trouble,
You're jaded.

Where did you go?
How have you been?
We'll be right here.
Where did you go?
How have you been?
Are you still my best friend?

And we've seen best of times,
And we've heard worst of lies,
But here we stand... Still we stand.
And we've heard worst of lies,
And we've seen best of times,
But here we stand...Still we stand.

Where did you go?
How have you been?
We'll be right here.
Where did you go?
How have you been?
I'm tired of remember whens.

And you will take the driver's seat, and I will take the captain's chair,
and you will take the driver's seat, and I will take the captain's chair.

And maybe tomorrow, we'll forget about this year,
And all the things you wish you could change.
Show me some kindness in the midst of the hardships,
Cause things should never be this way.

Say it loud, say it loud and clear.
Forget about, forget about last year.

Stop wishing it were backwards, it is now or never.
Stop wasting all the time we could have spent together
Wishing you would come back here.
Times were better last year.

And all of your reasons, they change with the seasons,
Day by day they're not the same.
And if you would measure all the
Times that we've treasured,
You would see how my heart breaks.

Say it loud, say it loud and clear.
Forget about, forget about last year.

Stop wishing it were backwards, it is now or never.
Stop wasting all the time we could have spent together
Wishing you would come back here.
Times were better last year.

Twenty hour drive through the Rocky Mountains.
Won't be stopping now cause you know we're rocking.
Tell me, what has happened?
The stereo's stuck with the jukebox jammin' now.

Stop wishing it were backwards, it is now or never.
'Cause you've been wasting all the time we could have spent together.
Stop wishing it were backwards, it is now or never.
Stop wasting all the time we could have spent together
Wishing you would come back here.
Times are better this year,
And will be better next year.

So confined to the fear that you hold on to
Time unwinds and nothing seems
Promised you

Hey wait, i want to take you for a ride
Hey wait, i want to catch you
While there's time

Who'll(I'll) pick you up when there's no one
around?
Who'll(I'll) hold you up when your heart
Hits the ground?

So defined by a love that has fallen through
But hope is kind
When you hope in something
You know is true

You're tired and you can't take
Another time around
You know it's hope i'm holding
So i hope i've found you in this

Restless heart
Wait a little while longer
Heaven is holding out for you still
Lay your hand on somebody's shoulder
While you're here show someone you care...
Show them you're there

Inspiration
Is you and I
Changing nations,
Changing lives.

We all feel just a little bit older
As names and faces are passing us by
But there is a reason
Our hearts won't grow colder
There is one thing that won't ever change...
It's always the same

Seems we'll never do enough
To tell the world about God's love
But every soul is worth the fight
'Cause we can change the world
By changing just one life.

Lord you see every part of me
And I'm tired of feeling underground
It's time to take this inside...
And all my insecurity
It always gets the best of me now.

It's time to turn this thing around
It's time to turn this thing around.

You and I will be alright
If there's nothing more to come
'cause Lord I know I sing tonight for
An audience of one

There's something new inside of me
I'm overwhelmed by what I've found
Time to take this inside...
And all my insecurity
I won't let it get the best of me now.

Time to turn this thing around
It's time to turn this thing around


Far from the ordinary way I'll stay
So far from the ordinary way I'll stay

Get a hold of yourself
Try and figure it out...figure it out
There's a way to escape
But the choices you make
Stand in the way

So they say that it's the only way
But now you know how I feel about it

And i can't escape
The way you feel
'Cause it's the way i feel
And it's surreal

Take a look at yourself
Are you wondering how
It's gonna work out?
And there's a way to escape
What you think is your fate
But you say it's too late

And i can't escape the way you feel
'Cause it's the way i feel
And it's surreal
And i cannot change
The way it is
'Cause it's the life that you live
And it's so real
I'm missing you still

I have felt so far from home here
Don't want to stir the waters
Of a restless soul
I'll learn to let this go

There's a way to escape
What you think is your fate
It's never too late

Can I look past the cliche
In every moment?
Can I learn to be amazed by You?
Can I find a simple way to praise you,
Even if it's already used?

Can I put my pride aside
And learn to sing in time
With someone else's praises?

I love You,
I love You,
I love You,
Nothin' new

Can I accept that in a world of changes
You're not impressed with something new?
If I don't understand the language
Of a heart that's after You?

Can I put my pride aside
And learn to sing in time

With someone else's phrases?

So early morning when you come to me
Comfort me
Stop rewind and...
Play back that melody

No early warning when you come to me
Comfort me
I don't know 'cause I've been told
I just believe

You don't want to work 'cause it never works out
You don't want to talk 'cause words get out
Words get around

All I want is to
Bring you back to love
I've got, you've got, we've gotta give it to the
One who made me

So sweetly coming back to memory
Done for me
I've got something that you won't believe

But you don't want to come
'cause you'll never come around
You don't want to love
'cause you never learned
Never learned how

All I have is all I need
All you need is what you see

Give love one to another and
Give love one to each other
We'll be fine
We'll be fine

I feel alone, I feel so cold,
When I'm apart from you for just one night.
You keep me alive, feeling fine
When I've got something as good as you inside.

Got nothing to lose, been hanging in twos,
But I need something to get me through this.
Been hanging in twos, got nothing to lose,
But I need you to get me through this.

There's no better time
Than when I find you in a feeling
And know I'm doing alright.
Nothing to hide, just to confide
When I've got something as good as You inside.

What the world needs now
Is a little know how
To turn itself right upside down

One to another,
One to each other,
And we'll be fine

You never walked away,
You never left or let me down.
You always set me free,
But though You love me I was found

So I won't walk away, away.
And I will follow
You wherever You lead.
I won't walk away.
I will follow
You wherever You lead.
I won't walk away.

You always lead me on
To where You know I need to be.
Forever I will trust in
Where Your wings will carry me.

After today I'll get me out of this place
Into the world so I can set a new pace
Seems I'm on my own from here
Gotta face so many fears
Won't You lay me in Your hands of grace

I've got a funny feeling that I'm gonna go away
Gonna face my future, gonna try to make the grade
I've got a ways to go from here and
Vision doesn't seem so clear but
Praise God He's got a plan and
Understanding isn't my place

After today I'm gonna come face to face
With a new world who knows I'm feeling this way
I've got a ways to go from here
I'm gonna overcome these fears but
Still I'm gonna need Your hands of grace

I'll be a bigger man for, a bigger man for today.
I'll pray a bigger prayer...
I'll dream a bigger dream...
