Out on a limb
Did you see what the cat dragged in
Take it on the chin
Catching fire on a roof of tin
You've learnt to speak and you're professing
The right to teach us our direction
But I found out on close inspection
True imprefection
I'm looking for a new direction
Where in the world am i?
I took the word the word was resurrection
And then you took me out to climb
Higher and higher
Higher and higher
Higher and higher
Kissing the spires
Higher and higher
Higher and higher
Higher and higher
Souls on fire
Inside of my head
I heard what the good lord said
"beware" he said
If you don't you might end up dead
You suck the air right out of me
But though you suck you cannot see
That life and living are not free
Though you live you do not breathe
I'm looking for a new direction
Where in the world am i?
I took the word the word was resurrection
And then you took me out to climb
(repeat) higher and higher...
I have changed
But still my heart
Remains intact
And true love stays
But will our hearts
Retain their lack of
No sense and no direction
Who in the world am i?
I took the word the word was resurrection
And then you took me out to climb
(repeat) higher and higher...
Start confessing
Start confessing
All my evils would be blessed
If to God I did confess
Wipe the slate and see if i
Ate the bread and drank the wine
So as you're leaving I take possesion
I took your photo off the wall
So I wouldn't notice you at all
I walked away and close the door
Not thinking of staying anymore
You're telling me it's over
But I don't know if it right
You're telling me it's dark outside
But I can see the light
If I can make it up to you
If I can't run away then I'll find a new direction
If I can't run away I will find you
If I can't run away then I'll find a new direction
What would you do? Bitterness is nothing new
I made a promise to myself
That I'd wouldn't go to you for help
I want the measures that you do
To keep me from running into you
And now I know it's over
But I still don't think it's right
Your telling me that it's dark outside
But I can see the light
If I can't run away then I'll find a new direction
Because I know if I stay, I'll confine you
If I can't run away and your name's too hard to mention
Right from the start we just build it then break it apart
Ok boys and girls
We're gonna listen to things for you to do
To make yourself a better person
So just listen.....grrrrrarrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Be nice to your sister
Talk to your grandmother
Even though you miss her (cough cough)
Don't play ball in the house
Don't play with scissors
What do you mean it's time.
Time for me to grow up?
I don't want any part.
It's right to follow my heart.
The new kds ran.
Ran out the back door fast and the bands that came before they had their noses
in the air.
Pretending that they care about our scene just because our money's green.
I'll tell you stage dives make me feel more alive than coded messages in slowed
down songs.
Now you're so ashamed.
Now I'm so ashamed of you we believed the same things.
You stand to Decide.
Rebirth of hardcore pride.
It all came true.
Too bad you can't see all the good things that I see.
Back in. Back in the days when I'd wait to see the old bands play.
It didn't seem like wasted days.
I was so sincere.
But now I see more clearly.
Music's only work to them.
It's not to me so I say.
Hats off to bands that change.
Good luck go your own way.
Why play for us if your hearts not in?
Cause what might seem dumb to you is pounding in my heart.
Now you're so ashamed.
Now you're so ashamed of you.
We believed the same things.
You stand to decide rebirth of hardcore pride.
It all came true.
Too bad you can't see.
No you just can't fucking see it.
Now you just turn your back.
You said I don't want it anymore.
Old Friends you attack.
Old pain out of touch.
You don't get it do you?
New stage new ideas.
You don't have to make excuses for us.
Sitting there looking back I'm scared.

I put my finger on the pain
it was nothing, it was just the smell
after the rain
it was nothing, it was
just the warm ground beneath my feet
I put my finger on the pain
it was nothing,
it wasjust the shadow of her ghost,
it was nothing it was just the feeling
that most things are ugly
that most things are ugly round here
- did I ever take my eyes off the horizon?
lead the way from this place
and point me out a new direction
everyone keep saying I'll be fine, fine, fine
I wonder if I'll wake one day to find my life
waisted behind me
I took a peek into the sun
to see if it was true
what the blind girl said:
"if you look long enough,
you will see the dead coming down..."
I took a look into her eyes,
I saw nothing but the sky
and everlasting love
and the feeling I've been blinded ever since
the day I was brought here,
ever since the day I was brought to this place
Did I ever take my mind off something dirty?
always out of range. but I'll be feeling like
this 'til I drop dead,
and everyone keep saying
a lie is just a lie, lie, lie
just hope that I can fool myself,
then I know I'll be alright
so lead the way from this place
Verse 1
Glory, glory, hallelujah.

Arose a great and mighty wind and wave
Twelve men and Jesus Christ the Son
Better known as the Holy One

Hard to steer couldn't change the route
Leader:
The winds were tough and the waves were high
Jesus asleep in a room nearby

And if it does you won't get wet at all

Cause He's your shelter in the time of storm

Look to the hills for where your help comes from

Verse 1
I was messed up, dirty as I could be,
I was on my way to hell;
but I heard the preacher,
preaching the Word of God,
confess your sins and repent.
Chorus
I came to Jesus as I was,
weary, worn, and sad.
I found in Him a resting place
and He has made, made me glad.
Verse 2
I asked the Lord,
'how could He love me,
I have sinned against Your will'.
But He said, 'repent and I will forgive you,
the question's who will you serve''
Verse 3
You might be dirty, messed up inside,
You may even have lost your will to live;
don't be discouraged, don't throw in the towel,
confess your sins and repent so you can be like me.
Vamp 1

Vamp 2
So many nights I've cried,
for better days I prayed for;
but through it all I know
the sun is gonna shine if I hold out,
the sun is gonna shine if I hold out.
Verse 2
Sometimes I feel alone,
no one around to call to on;
I must endure for I know
the sun is gonna shine if I hold out,
the sun is gonna shine if I hold out.
Bridge
Weeping may endure for a night,
trouble don't last always;
joy comes in the morning,
just wait 'til the morning.
Verse 3
I won't let go of my faith
the sun is gonna shine if I hold out,
the sun is gonna shine if I hold out.

Verse:
When I woke up this morning,
my family was doing fine,
then I looked out my window
and saw the bright sunshine.
My hands went up, I started shouting,
a day I've never seen before.
My hands went up, I started praising God
for giving me another chance, yes.
Bridge:
My hands went up
my hands went up.
My hands went up
my hands went up.
Vamp 1:
When I think of what He's done and all He's done for me,
when I think of how He died back on Calvary
my hands go up, my hands go up.
Vamp 2:
My hands go up
Here I am, standing here father
I just wanna take out a little time
A little time to say thank you
Oh thank you

You kept me in your lovin' arms
And I wanna thank you

Verse 1:
I strayed away from You Lord,
I stayed away so long.
Friends have turned their backs on me,
now I'm standing here so all alone.
But You told me to come home,
You forgave me,
You really showed me that?
Chorus:
You love me,
You showed me that You love me.
Verse 2:

Lead me on to a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh
Lead me on, the awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking, lead me on
Shoulder to the wheel
For someone else's selfish gain
Here there is no choosing, working the clay
Wearing their anger like a ball and chain
Fire in the field, underneath the blazing sun
But soon the sun was faded and freedom was a song
I heard them singing when the day was done
Singing to the holy one
Lead me on to a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh
Lead me on, the awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking, lead me on
Waiting for the train
Labeled with a golden star
Heavy hearted boarding, whispers in the dark
Where are they going, is it very far?
Bitter cold terrain, echoes of a slamming door
In chambers made for sleeping forever
Voices like thunder in a mighty roar
Cry to the lord
Singing lead me on to a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh
Lead me on, the awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking, lead me on
Man hurts man
Time and time again
And we drown in the wake of our power
Somebody tell me why
Lead me on, lead me on to a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh
Lead me on, the awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking, oh
Lead me on, lead me on to a place where the river runs
Into your keeping, oh
Lead me on, lead me on, the awaited deliverance
Comforts the seeking, oh
Lead me on, lead me on
To a place where the rivers run
Oh, Lead me on, lead me on
Verse 1:
A song can change the whole atmosphere,
move you to tears, stir up joy within.
A song can speak when troubles weigh you down,
encourage your faith, chase away your doubts.
Do you have a song?
Do you have a song?
Chorus 1:
Don't lose your song, just keep on singing,
when things go wrong, let the melody keep ringing.
Deep in your heart, there's a song that you feel;
let it ring, lift your voice, just sing,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let it ring, lift your voice, just sing,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
sing a song, sing a song,
Verse 2:
A song can lead you to that secret place
where God abides, where you seek His face.
Talking 'bout a song that can call upon the heart of God,
cause Him to move when all is said and done.
Do you have a song?
Do you have a song?
Chorus 2:
Don't lose your song, just keep on singing,
when things go wrong, let the melody keep ringing.
Deep in your heart, there's a song that you feel;
let it ring, lift your voice, just sing,
let it ring, lift your voice, just sing.
A song, a song, a song,
just sing, just sing a song.

A-a-a-a-ah a-ah
A-a-a-a-ah (I've been looking for a new direction)
A-a-a-a-ah a-ah (I've been looking for a new direction)
It seems to me
I cannot breath
When you're around
You leave me there
In the cold
I'm lost and found
I've been lookin for a new direction
there's something you know I've gotta say
I've been lookin for a new connection
With someone who's gonna make me stay
You shouldn't lie
You shouldn't play
Not the kind of girl to look the other way
You shouldn't cry
You shouldn't fake
Just got to tell you straight before I walk away
It's too late
A-a-a-a-ah (I've been looking for a new direction)

A-a-a-a-ah (I've been looking for a new direction)
A-a-a-a-ah a-ah (I've been looking for a new direction)
Needing to
Rediscover my identity
I'm doing fine
Baby don't feel sad for me
I've been looking for a new fixation
Someone who can stimulate my mind
I've been looking for a new sensation
another love you know I'm gonna find
You shouldn't lie
You shouldn't play
Not the kind of girl to look the other way
It's too late

What do you mean it's time, time for me to
grow up? I don't want any part. It's right
to follow my heart. The new kids ran, ran
out the back door fast, and the bands
that came before they had their noses in
the air. Pretending that they care about
our scene just because our money's
green. I'll tell you stage dives make me
feel more alive than coded messages in
slowed down songs.
Now you're so ashamed, now I'm so
ashamed of you. We believed the same
things. You stand to the side. Rebirth of
hardcore pride. It all came true, too bad
you can't see all the good things that I
see.
Back in, back in the days when I'd wait to
see the old bands play. It didn't seem
like wasted days. I was so sincere, but
now I see more clearly. Music's only
work to them. It's not to me. So I say,
hats off to bands that change. Good
luck, go your own way. Why play for us,
if your heart's not in it? Cause what might
seem dumb to you is pounding in my
heart.
Now you're so ashamed, now you're so
ashamed of you. We believed the same
things. You stand to the side. Rebirth of
hardcore pride. It all came true. Too bad
you can't see. No, you just can't fucking
see it.
Now you just turn your back. You said I
don't want it anymore. Old friends you
attack. Our pain out of touch. You don't
get it do you? New stage, new ideas.
You don't have to make excuses for us.
Sitting there looking back, I'm scared.
Don't spoil memories of the way things

Don't spoil memories of the way things
I'm looking in a new direction
I'm searching for a new perspective
I'm hoping that I'll figure out
Which way to go
I'm staring at my own reflection
I'm seeing all my imperfections
I'm hoping that I'll find my way
Before I'm old
Lifes too short it's now or never
Make a change for something better
I hope I can find the way on my own
Life too short I won't stop trying
In my heart there's no denying
I know I can find a place to call home
Sick and tired of the place I've been in
So exhausted from the life I'm living
I can't imagine being stuck here anymore
Everyday's the same, I can't get away
I need to start planning my escape
I'm looking for the door
Cause I want something more
Lifes too short it's now or never
Make a change for something better
I hope I can find the way on my own
Life too short I won't stop trying
In my heart there's no denying
