A cycloid is the curve traced by a point on the rim of a circular wheel as the wheel rolls along a straight line. It is an example of a roulette, a curve generated by a curve rolling on another curve.
The cycloid is the solution to the brachistochrone problem (i.e. it is the curve of fastest descent under gravity) and the related tautochrone problem (i.e. the period of an object in descent without friction inside this curve does not depend on the object's starting position).
It was in the left hand try-pot of the Pequod, with the soapstone diligently circling round me, that I was first indirectly struck by the remarkable fact, that in geometry all bodies gliding along the cycloid, my soapstone for example, will descend from any point in precisely the same time.
The cycloid was first studied by Nicholas of Cusa and later by Mersenne. It was named by Galileo in 1599. In 1634 G.P. de Roberval showed that the area under one arch of a cycloid is three times the area of its generating circle. In 1658 Christopher Wren showed that the length of one arch of a cycloid is four times the diameter of its generating circle. The cycloid has been called "The Helen of Geometers" as it caused frequent quarrels among 17th century mathematicians.
I walk through the desert, hide from the sun
All that I desire is You
Occasional water cools my thirst
All I that I desire is You
I don't want to live dying on the inside
I breathe so softly, don't feel too content
Apathy whispers and makes me think
Am I just another man whose time went fast
What does it take to be called great
I don't want to live dying on the inside
Because Your love is better than life
Because Your voice heals me inside
Because my soul is satisfied
Because Your love keeps me alive
I cannot be silent, Im crying out
My soul is cold, my heart is numb
I break from my old self and step into You
You complete what was never enough
Because Your love is better than life
Because Your voice heals me inside
Because my soul is satisfied
Because Your love keeps me alive
Keeps me alive with the strength to speak
This generation is dying to see
Who You are and how You free
Come Lord Jesus come
I've seen lots of dead men walking around
Make my heart alive
Because Your love is better than life
Because Your voice heals me inside
Because my soul is satisfied
You're powerful
You're unshakeable
You're powerful
You're unshakeable
You wreck me
You rule me
You turn me upside down (ya know)
Your glory
Pervades me
You conquer without a sound
You shake me
You break me
You make me whole again (ya know)
Your nature
Unchanging
All fails, but You remain
And when the ground begins to shake
And when my courage starts to fade
I let my fears go
When You
Breathe
The lifeless rise up
Invade me
With violence
And heal me
You're mighty
You take my rights away
You take control, No stopping You
You take my rights away
I can take it
See me let it go
You are in control
Suffer as we grow
And we say - we say we don't want to
Holding nothing
You take everything
You're worth anything at all
Anything at all
You define me
With your identity
Lose my life in You
If I wasn't here tomorrow
Would anybody care
If my time was up I'd wanna know
You were happy I was there
If I wasn't here tomorrow
Would anyone lose sleep
If I wasn't hard and hollow
Then maybe you would miss me
I know I'm a mess and I wanna be someone
Someone that I like better
I can never forget
So don't remind me of it forever (forever)
What if I just pulled myself together
Would it matter at all
What if I just try not to remember
Would it matter at all
All the chances that have passed me by
Would it matter if I gave it one more try
Would it matter at all
If I wasn't here tomorrow
Would anybody care
Still stuck inside this sorrow
I've got nothing and going nowhere
I know I'm a mess and I wanna be someone
Someone that I like better
I can never forget
So don't remind me of it forever
What if I just pulled myself together
Would it matter at all
What if I just try not to remember
Would it matter at all
All the chances that have passed me by
Would it matter if I gave it one more try
Would it matter at all
I know I'm a mess and I wanna be someone
Someone that I like better
Can you help me forget
Don't wanna feel like this forever, forever
What if I just pulled myself together
Would it matter at all
What if I just try not to remember
Would it matter at all
All the chances that have passed me by
Would it matter if I gave it one more try
If I left tomorrow
Would anybody care
Stuck in this sorrow
Going nowhere
All the chances that have passed me by
Would it matter if I gave it one more try
As I fall to sleep
Will you comfort me
When my heart is weak
Will you rescue me
Will you be there
As I grow cold
Will you be there when I'm falling down
Will you be there
When I'm in retreat
Can I run to you
Will my pain release
At your mercy seat
Will you be there
As I grow cold
Will you be there when I'm falling down
Will you be there
My heart grows cold
Will you be there when I'm falling down
Are you saying yes
I gotta believe it
Are you saying yeah
When your love comes down I can rest my eyes
Feel your grace and power flood into my life
As my brokenness and your strength collide
When your love comes down
Falling Down
As I fall to sleep
As I grow cold
Will you be there
My heart grows cold
Despite the lies that you're making
Your love is mine for the taking
My love is just waiting
To turn your tears to roses
Despite the lies that you're making
Your love is mine for the taking
My love is just waiting
To turn your tears to roses
I will be the one that's gonna hold you
I will be the one that you run to
My love is a burning, consuming fire
No, you'll never be alone
When darkness comes
I'll light the night with stars
Hear my whispers in the dark
No, you'll never be alone
When darkness comes
You know I'm never far
Hear my whispers in the dark
Whispers in the dark
You feel so lonely and ragged
You lay here broken and naked
My love is just waiting
To clothe you in crimson roses
I will be the one that's gonna find you
I will be the one that's gonna guide you
My love is a burning, consuming fire
No, you'll never be alone
When darkness comes
I'll light the night with stars
Hear my whispers in the dark
No, you'll never be alone
When darkness comes
You know I'm never far
Hear the whispers in the dark
No, you'll never be alone
When darkness comes
I'll light the night with stars
Hear my whispers in the dark
No, you'll never be alone
When darkness comes
You know I'm never far
Hear the whispers in the dark
Whispers in the dark
Whispers in the dark
Whispers in the dark
Talking to God
Hearing what he wants
He moves in violence
I stand in silence
Who can question You, who can fathom You?
In your presence, who can stand?
Worlds spin around and kings crumble down
There's no escape what Youve planned
Winds approaching, clouds are forming
God in his power
Is swirling around me
Calling me, and you know my name
So jump in or be taken, yea I can't
Run long enough, or go far enough
To escape the screaming rain
It's alright
It's alright
Jump in the whirlwind
I'm letting go
My world's at stake
I want to break
Stop the striving
Start the dying
I'm thrown into it
It's so imminent
There's no arguing what You say
I gotta keep fanning it, I keep fanning it
I keep fanning the fire to flames
It's alright
It's alright
Jump in the whirlwind
I'm letting go
Master and Savior, Sustainer and Creator
You move in power
And winds and thunder
It's alright
It's alright
Jump in the whirlwind
Letting go
When I feel you close to me
It's easy to believe
To the depths and back again
To find that I'm still needing
Feel the fear dissipate
When you are everything you are
Feel my soul come awake
You carry me away
When I hurt, when I bleed
You're holding me
Feel you scratching at the surface
Under my skin
Oh, under my skin
Oh the sweet serenity
I'm beautifully addicted
You are more than I can take
I crave you undiluted
You calm the ache, I come awake
When you are everything you are
Feel the fear dissipate
You carry me away
When I hurt, when I bleed
You're holding me
Feel you scratching at the surface
Under my skin
Oh, under my skin
Oh, yeah
Could I be lost
Could I disappear
Could I be lost
Would you find me here?
Could I be lost in a secret place?
Could I rest in the shadow of your face
Oh the sweet
(Could I be lost, could I disapper?)
Serenity
(Could I be lost, would you find me here?)
Beautifully
(Could I be lost in a secret place?)
A part of me
(Could I rest in the shadow of your face?)
When I hurt, when I bleed
You're holding me
Feel you scratching at the surface
Under my skin
I remember when we used to laugh
About nothing at all, it was better than going mad
From trying to solve all the problems
We're going through, forget 'em all
'Cause on those nights we would stand and never fall
Together we faced it all, remember when we'd
Stay up late and we'd talk all night
In a dark room lit by the TV light
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
We'd listen to the radio play all night
Didn't wanna go home to another fight
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
I remember when we used to drive
Anywhere but her, as long as we'd forget our lives
We were so young and confused
That we didn't know to laugh or cry
Those nights were ours, they will live and never die
Together we'd stand forever, remember when we'd
Stay up late and we'd talk all night
In a dark room lit by the TV light
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
We'd listen to the radio play all night
Didn't wanna go home to another fight
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
Those nights belong to us
There's nothing wrong with us
Those nights belong to us
I remember when we used to laugh
And now I wish those nights would last
Stay up late and we'd talk all night
In a dark room lit by the TV light
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
We'd listen to the radio play all night
Didn't wanna go home to another fight
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
Stay up late and we'd talk all night
In a dark room lit by the TV light
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
We'd listen to the radio play all night
Didn't wanna go home to another fight
Through all the hard times in my life
Those nights kept me alive
Those nights belong to us
Love me like no other
You have been the Savior of my life
You know my weakness
But see me beautiful through Your eyes
And You're the One that I need
The One who makes me complete
And You're the One who is strong
When I am crying and weak
And You're the One that I love
The One who never gives up
And You're the One that I need
You're the One, You're the One
Love me like no other
You make it easy for my heart to believe
And when I'm drowning
You're on the way to rescue me
I carry on without knowing how
I've never needed how I'm needing now
You're the one
Love me like no other
You come to me with scars on your wrist
You tell me this will be the last night
Feeling like this
I just came to say goodbye
Didn't want you to see me cry
I'm fine but I know it's a lie
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be
The last night you'll spend alone
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go
I'm everything you need me to be
Your parents say everything is your fault
But they don't know you like I know you
They don't know you at all
I'm so sick of when they say
It's just a phase, you'll be okay, you're fine
But I know it's a lie
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be
The last night you'll spend alone
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go
I'm everything you need me to be
The last night away from me
The night is so long when everything's wrong
If you give me your hand, I will help you hold on
Tonight, tonight
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be
The last night you'll spend alone
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go
I'm everything you need me to be
I won't let you say goodbye
And I'll be your reason why
Take my strength, take my pride,
Take my selfishness away
Take my rights, take ambition,
Capture me, make me a slave
Break the walls, break my bones,
Break my hardened heat
Rip my rule, rip my will,
Rip independency apart
Breathe Your life,
Breathe Your love,
Breathe You breath and Im sustained
Take my hate, take my hurt,
Express healing to my pain
Take my flesh in all its arrogance, my stability away
Take my life, bring fire, «til only You remain
Laid out on my face (yea)
My tongue hanging out to taste (yea)
Of You and Your death (yea)
And to know Your name (yea)
Accept my gifts, take my crowns,
I spread them at your feet
When I bleed, I bleed with joy as I taste Your suffering
Flood life, flood peace, speak acceptance to my shame
Allow to kneel, allow to praise,
Give the right to speak Your name
Laid out on my face (yea)
My tongue hanging out to taste (yea)
Of You and Your death (yea)
And to know Your name (yea)
Laid out on my face
My skin is my disguise
I'm more than a man
I smile at my demise
Ask who I am
More than a man
More than a man
More than a man
More than a man
My skin is my disguise
I'm more than a man
I was sent to rule on Earth
Ask who I am
I wreck, I wreck, I wreck
I wreck with every prayer
Ask who I am
'Cause I'm stronger, yeah
Than the Devil, yeah, yeah
'Cause I'm stronger, yeah
Than the Devil, yeah, yeah

The fear tries to take me
The flesh tries to pull
Blackness all around me

For Him to arrive

I'm done, wonder where you've been
All night long when you're out with your friends
All you say that the matter's over
But now that chapter's over
I'm done trusting you it's ended
Even after I catch you red handed
You could've been my only one
But now your chance is gone
You should've when you could've
You're gonna miss my love, girl
You should, it would've been so good
You should've when I would've
Now I know I've had enough
Better luck next time, girl
You should, it would've been so good
I'm done chasing you all over
May as well be chasing after thunder
Play hard to get if it makes you happy
For a change now you can start chasing me
Don't cry 'cause I ain't, you're sure thing
It ain't my fault you don't know a good thing
You could've been my only one
But now your chance is gone
You should've when you could've
You're gonna miss my love, girl
You should, it would've been so good
You should've when I would've
Now I know I've had enough
Better luck next time, girl
You should, it would've been so good
Don't you understand?
Don't wanna be your backup plan
Now I won't be here to clean up when it hits the fan
You tried to kick me on your leash
It's time you started chasing me
I'm done acting like I won't be
Sitting here still wishing you wanted me
Don't say that I never told you
Take some advice from somebody who knows
You should've when you could've
You're gonna miss my love, girl
You should, it would've been so good
You should've when I would've
Now I know I've had enough
Better luck next time, girl
You should, it would've been so good
You should've when you could've
You're gonna miss my love, girl

Learning inside, I will be safe with You tonight
[Incomprehensible] cause a smile and the teardrops in my eyes
Locked inside Your every movement, will I stand or will I fall?
Trapped inside Your walls of glory, I am just as the dead leaves fall, yeah
Safe with You
Safe with You
Chaos in my head, the whole universe is at rest
When I'm in Your arms is when I feel the best
Locked inside Your creative being, whirled about in Your unfailing truth
Attacked with power by ferocious love, salvation alone belongs to You
Safe with You
Safe with You
Safe with You
Safe with You
Lifting up my voice to the God who really sees
The God who is consumed with loving thoughts of me
The screaming winds and the crashing of the oceans
Shifting sands and the changing of the seasons
As I stand in awe and wonder
Nothing in the world has prepared me for You
No nothing prepared me for You
Safe with You
Safe with You
Jesus, Jesus I'm safe with You
Jesus, Jesus I'll be safe with You
Safe with You
Go, go, go
Go, go, go
Go, go, go
Go, go, go
They say Jesus is doing nothing
They say evolution took His place
There's no God that created the world
And no Savior for the human race
They say God is powerless
He laughs aloud as we cry in pain
It's just a part of His sick, sick humor
Forcing us to appreciate
You say that God is dead but you're rippin' me off
You can't infect my mind with your vanity
You say that God is dead but you're rippin' me off
You can't infect my mind with your vanity
You're rippin' me off
You're rippin' me off
You're rippin' me off
You're rippin' me off
Go, go, go
Go, go, go
Go, go, go
Go, go, go
They say God doesn't even exist
We made Him up just to numb our pain
They can't believe in a loving God
Who doesn't believe in atheists
You say that God is dead but you're rippin' me off
You can't infect my mind with your vanity
You say that God is dead but you're rippin' me off
You can't infect my mind with your vanity
You're rippin' me off
You're rippin' me off
You're rippin' me off
You're rippin' me off
Go, go, go
Go, go, go
Go, go, go
We take too much
We take too much
We take too much
We take too much
You say that God is dead but you're rippin' me off
You can't infect my mind with your vanity
You say that God is dead but you're rippin' me off
You can't infect my mind with your vanity
You say that God is dead but you're rippin' me off
You can't infect my mind with your vanity
You're rippin' me off
You're rippin' me off
You're rippin' me off
Everything I am is resting in my jar
Holding nothing back from entering my jar
My hopes and dreams I put into my jar
You find my jar as beautiful
Deep the sorrow and pain I put in my jar
Times seem so hard I put them in my jar
My violence burns Youve consumed my heart
Desperation ends with desertion in
A moment of intimacy my life explained and unpronounced
Falling at Your feet I kneel perpetually
Staring at my jar I proceed to pour it out
The loss and gain goes on and on and on
You're in the blood and you're all around
Beauty speaks without a sound
Raging flood, Youre the peace I need
Down, pour down
All my fears and needs I put in my jar
I'd give everything to know who You are
The open space around Your feet
Becomes my resting place, my destiny
The loss and gain goes on and on and on
You're in the blood and you're all around
Beauty speaks without a sound
Raging flood, Youre the peace I need
Down, pour down
And all You're, is all I need
You're all I need
A moment of intimacy my life explained and unpronounced
Falling at Your feet I kneel perpetually
Staring at my jar I proceed to pour it out
The loss and gain goes on and on and on
You're in the blood and you're all around
Beauty speaks without a sound
Raging flood, You're the peace I need
Down, pour down
You're in my blood, in my blood
We take a walk in the garden
We share the fruits of life
We live beneath this canopy
Why did we take that bite?
We cover up our shame
We walk in black and white
We turn this ground for hunger
Why did we take that bite?
Paint me with an endless sunrise
Paint me, yeah
Paint me in open eyes
Paint me with the color of love
You took a walk on the planet
You gave us shade and light
You create mood and substance
How can I can take a bite?
Paint me with an endless sunrise
Paint me, yeah
Paint me in open eyes
Paint me with the color of love
Paint me, mark me up
In these frail, dot-to-dot lines
Color me from one red stream
From which all others flow
Take my black and white and yellow
Brown and pink and pain and sorrow
Take my black and white and yellow
Brown and pink and hate and sorrow
Paint me with an endless sunrise
Paint me, yeah
Paint me in open eyes
Paint me with the color of love
Paint me with an endless sunrise
Paint me, yeah
Paint me in open eyes
Paint me with the color of love
Paint me with the color of love
Paint me with the color of love
Paint me with the color of love
Paint me with the color
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
In the dark with the music on
Wishing I was somewhere else
Taking all your anger out on me
Somebody help
I would rather rot alone
Then spend a minute with you
I'm gone, I'm gone
And you can't stop me from falling apart
'Cause my self-destruction is all your fault
How could you, how could you, how could you hate me?
When all I ever wanted to be was you?
How could you, how could you, how could you love me?
When all you ever gave me were open wounds?
Open wounds
Downstairs the enemy sleeps
Leaving the TV on
Watching all the dreams
We had turn into static
Doesn't matter what I do
Nothings gonna change
I'm never good enough
And you can't stop me from falling apart
'Cause my self-destruction is all your fault
How could you, how could you, how could you hate me?
When all I ever wanted to be was you?
How could you, how could you, how could you love me?
When all you ever gave me were open wounds?
Tell me why you broke me down
And betrayed my trust in you
I'm not giving up, giving in
When will this war end?
When will it end
You can't stop me from falling apart
You can't stop me from falling apart
You can't stop me from falling apart
'Cause my self-destruction is all your fault
How could you, how could you, how could you hate me?
When all I ever wanted to be was you?
How could you, how could you, how could you love me?
When all you ever gave me were open wounds?
How could you, how could you
How could you, how could you
All I ever wanted to be was you
Speak, and my heart starts aching
Reach, and the numbness dims
Beat, still my minds uncertain
Breathe, it begins again
You are the One Real Thing
You are the One True Thing that I know
You are the One Real Thing
No matter what the future brings
You're the One Real Thing
Stay, locked within Your presence
Truth, renew in my mind again
Rest, cuz I know You're faithful and I
Trust, cuz I know Your name
You are the One Real Thing
You are the One True Thing that I know
You are the One Real Thing
No matter what the future brings
You're the One Real Thing
I get down on my knees and I
Feel Your love wash over me (One Real Thing)
Speak, and my heart starts aching
Reach, and the numbness dims
Beat, still my minds uncertain
Breathe, it begins again, again...
You are the One Real Thing
You are the One True Thing that I know
You are the One Real Thing
You are the One True Thing that I know
You are the One Real Thing
No matter what the future brings
You're the One Real Thing
I get down on my knees and I
Tick tock, hear the clock countdown
Wish the minute hand could be rewound
So much to do and so much I need to say
Will tomorrow be too late?
Feel the moment slip into the past
Like sand through an hourglass
In the madness, I guess, I just forget
To do all the things I said
Time passes by, never thought I'd wind up
One step behind, now I've made my mind up
Today, I'm gonna try a little harder
Gonna make every minute last longer
Gonna learn to forgive and forget
'Cause we don't have long, gonna make the most of it
Today, I'm gonna love my enemies
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
'Cause tomorrow could be one day too late
One day too late, one day too late
Tick tock, hear my life pass by
I can't erase and I can't rewind
Of all the things I regret the most I do
Wish I'd spent more time with you
Here's my chance for a new beginning
I saved the best for a better ending
In the end I'll make it up to you
You'll see, you'll get the very best of me
Time passes by, never thought I'd wind up
One step behind, now I've made my mind up
Today, I'm gonna try a little harder
Gonna make every minute last longer
Gonna learn to forgive and forget
'Cause we don't have long, gonna make the most of it
Today, I'm gonna love my enemies
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
'Cause tomorrow could be one day too late
Your time is running out
You're never gonna get it back
So make the most of every moment
Stop saving the best for last
Today, I'm gonna try a little harder
Gonna make every minute last longer
Gonna learn to forgive and forget
'Cause we don't have long, gonna make the most of it
Today, I'm gonna love my enemies
Reach out to somebody who needs me
Make a change, make the world a better place
'Cause tomorrow could be one day too late
One day too late, one day too late
Do you know what it's like when
You're scared to see yourself?
Do you know what it's like when
You wish you were someone else
Who didn't need your help to get by?
Do you know what it's like
To wanna surrender?
I don't wanna feel like this tomorrow
I don't wanna live like this today
Make me feel better, I wanna feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender
Never surrender
Do you know what it's like when
You're not who you wanna be?
Do you know what it's like to
Be your own worst enemy
Who sees the things in me I can't hide?
Do you know what it's like
To wanna surrender?
I don't wanna feel like this tomorrow
I don't wanna live like this today
Make me feel better, I wanna feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender
Make me feel better, you make me feel better
You make me feel better, put me back together
I don't wanna feel like this tomorrow
I don't wanna live like this today
Make me feel better, I need to feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender
Put me back together
Never surrender, make me feel better
You make me feel better
Stay with me here now and never surrender
Your touch, your ways
Leave me dumb without reason
Your love, my cage
My prison so pleasing
I spend my days
Tangled in thoughts of you
Stuck in this place
Resigned to be your fool
I thirst no longer
Drenching my soul
Pour out like water
You're my only infatuation
Don't leave me stranded
In my obsession
My purpose, my possession
Live and die in my obsession
My obsession
Come down to me
Don't ever say that it's over
I kiss your feet
Worship the air you breathe
Your love, my gift
You go and I will follow
My dream, my wish
Don't leave me here so helpless
I thirst no longer
Drenching my soul
Pour out like water
You're my only infatuation
Don't leave me stranded
In my obsession
My purpose, my possession
Live and die in my obsession
My obsession
Am I a lunatic?
I'm going crazy
For just a word from
For just a touch from you
And I'm exploding like chemicals
I'm going crazy, can't get enough
I thirst no longer
I thirst, yeah
Drenching my soul
Drenching, oh
I thirst no longer
Drenching my soul
Pour out like water
You're my only infatuation
Don't leave me stranded
In my obsession
My purpose, my possession
Live and die in my obsession
Oh, oh, oh, my obsession
Oh, oh, oh, my obsession
The secret side of me, I never let you see
I keep it caged but I can't control it
So stay away from me, the beast is ugly
I feel the rage and I just can't hold it
It's scratching on the walls, in the closet, in the halls
It comes awake and I can't control it
Hiding under the bed, in my body, in my head
Why won't somebody come and save me from this, make it end?
I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I hate what I've become, the nightmare's just begun
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
My secret side I keep hid under lock and key
I keep it caged but I can't control it
'Cause if I let him out he'll tear me up, break me down
Why won't somebody come and save me from this, make it end?
I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I hate what I've become, the nightmare's just begun
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
It's hiding in the dark, it's teeth are razor sharp
There's no escape for me, it wants my soul, it wants my heart
No one can hear me scream, maybe it's just a dream
Maybe it's inside of me, stop this monster
I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I hate what I've become, the nightmare's just begun
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I've gotta lose control, he something radical
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
Another world collides, will we open the door
A message to the world it seems like
Everyone has a god standing up for what we think we know
Do we know?
We've got so far to go from here
And we've got so much to lose
With American eyes, yeah
And curious hearts, we've got so much to learn
So we find, we find
When you kill me, do it slowly
When we've come undone
When you kill me, please do it slowly
Send a message to the world (A message to the world)
Another war will rise, will we open the floor
Listen to the words it seems like
Everyone has a cause fighting for a world we think we own
But do we know?
We've got so far to go from here
And we've got so much to lose
With American eyes, yeah
And curious hearts, we've got so much to learn
So we find (we find!)
When you kill me, do it slowly
When we've come undone
When you kill me, please do it slowly
Send a message to the world (A message to the world)
Send a message to the world
There's so much more to learn
There's so much more to live for (So much more to live for)
More than we will ever know
It's a message to the world
Yeah!
When you kill me, do it slowly
When we've come undone (It's a message to the world)
When you kill me, please do it slowly
Send a message to the world (A message to the world)
Send a message to the world (A message to the world)
Send a message to the world
Hey Lucy, I remember your name
I left a dozen roses on your grave today
I'm in the grass on my knees, wipe the leaves away
I just came to talk for a while, got some things I need to say
Now that it's over, I just wanna hold her
I'd give up all the world to see
That little piece of Heaven looking back at me
Now that it's over, I just wanna hold her
I've gotta live with the choices I made
And I can't live with myself today
Hey Lucy, I remembered your birthday
They said it'd bring some closure to say your name
I know I'd do it all different if I had the chance
But all I got are these roses to give
And they can't help me make amends
Now that it's over, I just wanna hold her
I'd give up all the world to see
That little piece of Heaven looking back at me
Now that it's over, I just wanna hold her
I've gotta live with the choices I made
And I can't live with myself today
Here we are, now you're in my arms
I never wanted anything so bad
Here we are for a brand new start
Living the life that we could've had
Me and Lucy walking hand in hand
Me and Lucy never wanna end
Just another moment in your eyes
I'll see you in another life in Heaven
Where we never say goodbye
Now that it's over, I just wanna hold her
I'd give up all the world to see
That little piece of Heaven looking back at me
Now that it's over, I just wanna hold her
I've gotta live with the choices I made
And I can't live with myself today
Here we are, now you're in my arms
Here we are for a brand new start
I got to live with the choices I've made
And I can't live with myself today
Me and Lucy walking hand in hand
Me and Lucy never wanna end
I've got to live with the choices I've made
And I can't live with myself today
Death until the dust, and we're waiting
Ruined in the rust, of our craving
It feels like, it feels like
Don't you know the cost, of your betrayal?
You're the one that's lost, you're gonna fail
It feels like, it feels like you're gasping with all your might
You can't take away my strength
Fix these broken veins
There's nothing left to fight (Live free or let me die)
You can't take away my pride, I won't be denied
There's nothing left to fight (Live free or let me die)
Insects walk below, I'm on a wire
Fire will burn below, but I am higher
It feels like, it feels like
Don't you know the cost, of your betrayal?
You're the one that's lost, you're gonna fail
It feels like, it feels like you're gasping with all your might
You can't take away my strength
Fix these broken veins
There's nothing left to fight (Live free or let me die)
You can't take away my pride, I won't be denied
There's nothing left to fight (Live free or let me die)
Do you remember how
You became who you are now?
Do you remember how
It felt to breathe without
Gasping with all your might?
You can't take away my strength
Fix these broken veins
Nothing left to fight
You can't take away my strength
Fix these broken veins
There's nothing left to fight (Live free or let me die)
You can't take away my pride, I won't be denied
There's nothing left to fight
Nothing left to fight (Nothing left to fight)
Live free or let me die
Live free or let me die
Break my bones and reset me
Piece by piece you break me
Pick up the cross 'cause it's killing time
How can I scream when the pain is
Such a release I get the courage
To pick up the nails 'cause it's killing time
Kill me, heal me
Kill me, heal me
On and on
Kill me, heal me
Kill me, heal me
On and on
Breathing your love
You're ferocious
You're in my lungs
Resuscitate
Craving your electricity
Feet to my pain you give
Wings to my fear your peace
Inhabits my blood
Your love is thick
Kill me, heal me
Kill me, heal me
On and on
Kill me, heal me
Kill me, heal me
On and on
I can't live without it
I can't live without it
I can't live without it
I can't live without it
Kill me, heal me
Kill me, heal me
On and on
Kill me, heal me
Kill me, heal me
On and on
Kill me, heal me
Kill me, heal me
On and on
Kill me, heal me
Kill me, heal me
Let's get the story straight
You were a poison
You flooded through my veins
You left me broken
You tried to make me think
That the blame was all on me
With the pain you put me through
And now I know that
It's not me, it's you, it's not me, it's you
Always has been you
All the lies and stupid things
You say and do, it's you
It's not me, it's you
All the lies and pain you put me through
I know that it's not me, it's you, you, you
It's not me, it's you, you
So here we go again
The same fight we're always in
I don't care so why pretend?
Wake me when your lecture ends
You tried to make me small
Make me fall and it's all your fault
With the pain you put me through
And now I know that
It's not me, it's you, it's not me, it's you
Always has been you
All the lies and stupid things
You say and do, it's you
It's not me, it's you
All the lies and pain you put me through
I know that it's not me, it's you
Let's get the story straight
You were a poison flooding through my veins
You're driving me insane
And now you're gone away
I'm no longer choking
From the pain you put me through
And now I know that
It's not me, it's you, you, it's not me, it's you
Always has been you
All the lies and stupid things
You say and do, it's you
It's not me, it's you
All the lies and pain you put me through
I know that it's not me, it's you, you, you
(It's not me, it's you)
It's not me, it's you, you
(It's not me, it's you)
It's not me, it's you, you
(It's not me, it's you)
It's not me, it's you, you
(It's not me, it's you)
You're worth so much
It'll never be enough
To see what you have to give
How beautiful you are
Yet seem so far from everything
You're wanting to be
You're wanting to be
Tears falling down again
Tears falling down
You fall to your knees
You beg, you plead
Can I be somebody else
For all the times I hate myself?
Your failures devour your heart
In every hour, you're drowning
In your imperfection
You mean so much
That heaven would touch
The face of humankind for you
How special you are
Revel in your day
You're fearfully and wonderfully made
You're wonderfully made
Tears falling down again
Come let the healing begin
You fall to your knees
You beg, you plead
Can I be somebody else
For all the times I hate myself?
Your failures devour your heart
In every hour, you're drowning
In your imperfection
You're worth so much
So easily crushed
Wanna be like everyone else
No one escapes
Every breath we take
Dealing with our own skeletons, skeletons
You fall to your knees
You beg, you plead
Can I be somebody else
For all the times I hate myself?
Your failures devour your heart
In every hour, you're drowning
In your imperfection
Won't you believe, yeah
Won't you believe, yeah
All the things I see in you
You're not the only one
You're not the only one
Looking on the sad times, the guilt and all the shame
I have learned to submit my existing hurts and pains
All the grief I've learned to set aside
'Cause I am, I am, I am
Feeling underooted feeling undermined
Can this grace of God cover me this time?
When I feel the pain I know why I feel strange
When I hear the rooster crow I am ashamed
Jesus on the cross and this cross upon my back
I have learned to submit then I whine about my lack
Sometimes I drop my cross, deserve a little rest
That's when I run to you and I nail your feet and your wrist
I'm feeling underooted feeling undermined
Can this grace of God cover me this time?
Do you really love my soul, even after I hated you?
Do you really know my name, can I really come to you?
Are you really more faithful than the changing of the seasons and the morning sun?
Do you really know my name, can I really come to you?
I can, I don't care if the rooster crows
I'm just a step away
I'm just a breath away
Losing my faith today
Falling off the edge today
I am just a man
Not superhuman
I'm not superhuman
Someone save me from the hate
It's just another war
Just another family torn
Falling from my faith today
Just a step from the edge
Just another day in the world we live
I need a hero to save me now
I need a hero, save me now
I need a hero to save my life
A hero will save me just in time
I've gotta fight today
To live another day
Speaking my mind today
My voice will be heard today
I've gotta make a stand
But I am just a man
I'm not superhuman
My voice will be heard today
It's just another war
Just another family torn
My voice will be heard today
It's just another kill
The countdown begins to destroy ourselves
I need a hero to save me now
I need a hero, save me now
I need a hero to save my life
A hero will save me just in time
I need a hero to save my life
I need a hero, just in time
Save me just in time
Save me just in time
Who's gonna fight for what's right?
Who's gonna help us survive?
We're in the fight of our lives
And we're not ready to die
Who's gonna fight for the weak?
Who's gonna make 'em believe?
I've got a hero, I've got a hero
Living in me
I'm gonna fight for what's right
Today I'm speaking my mind
And if it kills me tonight
I will be ready to die
A hero's not afraid to give his life
A hero's gonna save me just in time
I need a hero to save me now
I need a hero, save me now
I need a hero to save my life
A hero will save me just in time
(I need a hero)
Who's gonna fight for what's right?
Who's gonna help us survive?
(I need a hero)
Who's gonna fight for the weak?
Who's gonna make 'em believe?
I've got a hero
I need a hero
I can't escape it,
Help but celebrate it,
Brace before i get the shakes
You're like a drug and
All I'm thinking of is
How to get another taste.
[Chorus]
And I was born for this
And I was born for this
Yeah i need it, yeah i need it, yeah i need it in my veins.
Yeah i need it, yeah i need it, Heaven in my veins.
Divinity appeals to my need
To feed my veins with life
I cry to God to feel that every nature
Sink into this piece of life
And I was born for this
And I was born for this
[chorus]
Now let me go
Fly higher and higher
I lose control
All of me into you
I'm sitting with my heart out on the table
I'm doing a face to face with God
He picked up my heat and said
"What you want Me to do with this?"
I just blinked my eyes, no smile, no laugh
No tears, no shrugging my shoulders
It crossed my mind, yeah I got an idea
You could take my heart and put it in a padlocked box
What if they grab too hard or smash it or throw it down
I'm scared of being hurt, I just want to live, live a happy life
You want to, you want to soak my heart in gasoline
Light a match and consume me
Soak my pride in gasoline, all of you and none of me
I was reminded my heart reeks of gasoline
It bears the mark of a slave committed to life
Anyone who wants it will have to grab it
From a real big God, try to touch me
You'll be consumed, you'ÂÂll be consumed I want to, I want to
I'm sitting here with my heart out on the table
Next to a bloody mess that was once a man's heart
I looked at God and said, "What do You want me to do with this?"
Forgive me now 'cause I have been unfaithful
Don't ask me why 'cause I don't know
So many times I've tried but was unable
This heart belongs to You alone
Now I'm in our secret place
Alone in Your embrace
Where all my wrongs have been erased
You have forgiven
All the promises and lies
All the times I compromise
All the times You were denied
You have forgiven
Forgive me I'm ashamed, I've loved another
I can't explain 'cause I don't know
No one can take Your place and there is no other
Forever Yours and Yours alone
Now I'm in our secret place
Alone in Your embrace
Where all my wrongs have been erased
You have forgiven
All the promises and lies
All the times I compromise
All the times You were denied
You have forgiven
I get down on my knees
Feel Your love wash over me
There will never be another
You're the only one forever
And You know, I'm Yours alone
I'm in our secret place
Alone in Your embrace
Where all my wrongs have been erased
You have forgiven
All the promises and lies
All the times I compromise
All the times You were denied
You have forgiven
You have forgiven
Forgiven, forgiven
Forgiven, forgiven
Forgiven, forgiven
Never reaching what I want to reach
Never being who I want to be
Blaming me when I fall and fail
All my dreams splintering
Under my fingernails
Under my fingernails
I'm empty, lonely, and accused
Accused without a word
My fingernails are chipping down
From clawing in the dirt
I'm so lost, lost and confused
I threw it all away
How can I be beautiful
When I am so afraid
Never reaching what I want to reach
Never being who I want to be
Blaming me when I fall and fail
All my dreams splintering
Under my fingernails
All my dreams out of reach
Under my fingernails
I watched it all slip through my hands
My brokenness revealed
I'm so proud, I'm so proud
I'm crying to be filled
I'm killing, destroying the plague
That's killing me away
I've got to live, I've got to love
Like I am unafraid
Never reaching what I want to reach
Never being who I want to be
Blaming me when I fall and fail
All my dreams splintering
Under my fingernails
All my dreams out of reach
Under my fingernails
I'm wasting, wasting every moment
I want to be tasting
Tasting every moment with you
I'm suffering, I'm bleeding, on my knees
Who's going to save me?
Suffering, bleeding
Save me from this pit of frailty
Never reaching what I want to reach
Never being who I want to be
Blaming me when I fall and fail
All my dreams splintering
Under my fingernails
All my dreams out of reach
Under my fingernails
I thought distinctly
Different from now
Wonder dramatically
All about everything always
All my pushing
Becomes nothing I shake the fear
I used to compensate
For what I couldn't achieve
I conquered dreams
Forgetting what they were
All my pushing
Becomes nothing
All my falling
Is into You
Jump over on (Everybody now)
Dive over in (C'mon yea-yea)
'Cause it's just not enough
To stand at the edge (You gotta dive over in)
Now I am voiceless
Senseless at Your mercy
You draw me wildly
All my remainder
All my pushing
Becomes nothing
All my falling
Is into You
Jump over on
Dive over in
'Cause it's just not enough
To stand at the edge (you gotta dive over in)
All my pushing
Becomes nothing
All my falling
Is into You
Jump over on
Dive over in
'Cause it's just not enough
Tonight I'm so alone
This sorrow takes a hold
Don't leave me here so cold
Never want to be so cold
Your touch used to be so kind
Your touch used to give me life
I've waited all this time
I've wasted so much time
Don't leave me alone
'Cause I barely see at all
Don't leave me alone
I'm falling in the black
Slipping through the cracks
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
Dreaming of the way it used to be
Can you hear me
Falling in the black
Slipping through the cracks
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
Falling inside the black
Falling inside, falling inside the black
You were my source of strength
I've traded everything
That I love for this one thing
Stranded in the offering
Don't leave me here like this
Can't hear me scream from the abyss
And now I wish for you my desire
Don't leave me alone 'cause I barely see at all
Don't leave me alone
I'm falling in the black
Slipping through the cracks
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
Dreaming of the way it used to be
Can you hear me?
Falling in the black
Slipping through the cracks
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
Falling inside the black
Falling inside, falling inside the black, black, black, black
Falling in the black
Slipping through the cracks
Falling in the black
Slipping through the cracks
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
Dreaming of the way it used to be
Can you hear me?
Falling in the black
Slipping through the cracks
Falling to the depths can I ever go back
Falling inside the black
Can you hear me?
Falling inside the black
Can you hear me?
Falling inside the black
Can you hear me?
Falling inside
Falling inside
Falling inside
Falling inside the black
One man, one mission
One plot to save the world
Reclaim all races
And embrace our destiny
Changing history when the colliding comes
Where will you run
Come with us if you want to live
Join us in the army that's arising
The truth invades your mind
Every day the Kingdom is advancing
The earth invasion has just begun
Without a sound, without fear
It attacks the heart and soul
To rule all life and display His government
Join us in the army that's arising
The truth invades your mind
Every day the Kingdom is advancing
The earth invasion has just begun
Join us in the army that's arising
The truth invades your mind
Every day the Kingdom is advancing
The earth invasion has just begun
The earth's frustration
To be whole again
We'll see a nation
Living without sin
The earth invasion
One man, one mission
One plot to save the world
Join us in the army that's arising
The truth invades your mind
Every day the Kingdom is advancing
Crashing, covered with debris
Dwelling in my own pity
Cry like I have not
Dig like I had not
I start to claw
Gotta get outta here
I've got to, gotta get out
I am, I am, I am on a higher ground
You are, You are my cure from the cycle down
Sinking in a sea of self
Deception never sold so well
Regret like I have not
Pain like I don't want
I start to claw
Gotta get outta here
I've got to, gotta get out
I am, I am, I am on a higher ground
You are, You are my cure from the cycle down
Down
I'm so cold and I wonder
How'd I make it this long without You
Pull me out, out from under
On the cycle back to You
I am, I am, I am on a higher ground
You are, You are my cure from the cycle down
Things are coming down
Things are coming down I can tell you
Beautiful the sound
Of things coming down 'cause I heard him say
Hey, hey, hey
Division is coming down
I saw peace on a white horse riding
Love is spreading around
The most contagious disease we've ever known
I will drink from the well of the One who gives me life
I will eat of the bread of the One sacrifice
I will breathe of the breath of the body of God
I will dive to the depths and I will raise a new man
Hey, hey, hey
Racism's coming down
Not from the law but a change in perception
Revival's spreading around
I hear the sound of reapers already say
I will drink from the well of the One who gives me life
I will eat of the bread of the One sacrifice
I will breathe of the breath of the body of God
I will dive to the depths and I will raise a new man
Hey, hey, hey
[Incomprehensible]
Our knees are going down
To the One who brings fear to my every bone
His Kingdom's reigning down
Who can stop the plans of the Lord?
I say, "I will drink from the well of the One who gives me life
I will eat of the bread of the One sacrifice
I will breathe of the breath of the body of God
I will dive to the depths and I will raise a new man"
I will drink from the well of the One who gives me life
I will eat of the bread of the One sacrifice
I will breathe of the breath of the body of God
I hate feeling like this
I'm so tired of trying to fight this
I'm asleep and all I dream of
Is waking to you
Tell me that you will listen
Your touch is what I'm missing
And the more I hide I realize
I'm slowly losing you
Comatose
I'll never wake up without an overdose of you
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe
'Less I feel you next to me
You take the pain I feel
(Waking up to you never felt so real)
I don't wanna sleep, I don't wanna dream
'Cause my dreams don't comfort me
The way you make me feel
(Waking up to you never felt so real)
I hate living without you
Dead wrong to ever doubt you
But my demons lay in waiting
Tempting me away
Oh, how I adore you
Oh, how I thirst for you
Oh, how I need you
Comatose
I'll never wake up without an overdose of you
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe
'Less I feel you next to me
You take the pain I feel
(Waking up to you never felt so real)
I don't wanna sleep, I don't wanna dream
'Cause my dreams don't comfort me
The way you make me feel
(Waking up to you never felt so real)
Breathing life, waking up
My eyes open up
Comatose
I'll never wake up without an overdose of you
I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe
'Less I feel you next to me
You take the pain I feel
(Waking up to you never felt so real)
I don't wanna sleep, I don't wanna dream
'Cause my dreams don't comfort me
The way you make me feel
(Waking up to you never felt so real)
Oh, how I adore you
(Waking up to you never felt so real)
Oh, how I thirst for you
(Waking up to you never felt so real)
Oh, how I adore you
The way you make me feel
(Waking up to you never felt so real)
I stand here closed and open
Praying for the summer rains
Reaching in to pull back the curtains
Ruling in this desolate land
I will let me go my walls melt away
You have no boundries You cross my borders
You have no boundries You crash my borders
I lie here clothed and naked
Dam bursts to cool ocean waves
Black water cleans the highway
Resting in the washing away
I will let me me go my walls melt away
You have no boundries You cross my borders
You have no boundries You crash my borders
You are more than all that is outside of me
You are more than that which is inside of me
You have no boundries I have no borders
From You
Feel your every heartbeat
Feel you on these empty nights
Calm the ache, stop the shakes
You clear my mind
You're my escape
From this messed up place
'Cause you let me forget
You numb my pain
How can I tell you just all that you are
What you do to me
You're better than drugs
Your love is like wine
Feel you comin' on so fast
Feel you comin' to get me high
You're better than drugs
Addicted for life
Feel you comin' on so fast
Feel you comin' on to get me high
Feel you when I'm restless
Feel you when I cannot cope
You're my addiction, my prescription
My antidote
You kill the poison
Ease the suffering
Calm the rage when I'm afraid
To feel again
How can I tell you just all that you are
What you do to me
You're better than drugs
Your love is like wine
Feel you comin' on so fast
Feel you comin' to get me high
You're better than drugs
Addicted for life
Feel you comin' on so fast
Feel you comin' on to get me high
How can I tell you just all that you are
What you do to me
Feel your every heartbeat
Feel you on these empty nights
You're the strength of my life
You're better than drugs
Your love is like wine
Feel you comin' on so fast
Feel you comin' to get me high
You're better than drugs
Addicted for life
Feel you comin' on so fast
Feel you comin' on to get me high
Feel your every heartbeat
Feel you on these empty nights
Feel you comin' on so fast
Feel you comin' to get me high
Feel your every heartbeat
So you come to get me high
Feel you comin' on so fast
Feel you comin' on to get me high
To get me high
Shrouded in proof, You're the mystery
You're the truth that lives within the world we see
You're the hand that holds destiny
And I can't pretend i don't know
And I can't leave it alone (yeah, yeah)
You're the best kept secret in my generation
The best kept secret of all time
You're the best kept secret in my generation
And I found you out
You're the hope over the centuries
You're the cosmic force that rules the galaxies
You're the evidence that demands our belief
And I can't live for myself
I can't keep this all to myself (yeah, yeah)
Let it out
Let it out
Let it out
Let it out, yeah!
And I can't pretend I don't know
I'm still trying to figure out
How to tell you I was wrong
I can't fill the emptiness inside
Since you've been gone
So is it you or is it me?
I know I said things that I didn't mean
But you should've known me by now
You should've known me
If you believed when I said
I'd be better off without you
Then you never really knew me at all
If you believed when I said
That I wouldn't be thinking about you
You thought you knew the truth
But you're wrong
You're all that I need
Just tell me that you still believe
I can't undo the things
That led us to this place
But I know there's something more
To us than our mistakes
So is it you or is it me?
I know I'm so blind when we don't agree
But you should've known me by now
You should've known me
If you believed when I said
I'd be better off without you
Then you never really knew me at all
If you believed when I said
That I wouldn't be thinking about you
You thought you knew the truth
But you're wrong
You're all that I need
Just tell me that you still believe
Is it you or is it me?
I know I said things that I didn't mean
You should've known me by now
You should've known me
If you believed when I said
I'd be better off without you
Then you never really knew me at all
If you believed when I said
That I wouldn't be thinking about you
You thought you knew the truth
But you're wrong
'Cause you're all that I want
Don't you even know me at all?
You're all that I need
I see you standing here
But you're so far away
Starving for your attention
You don't even know my name
You're going through so much
But I know that I could be the one to hold you
Every single day
I find it hard to say
I could be yours alone
You will see someday
That all along the way
I was yours to hold
I was yours to hold
I see you walking by
Your hair always hiding your face
I wonder why you've been hurting
I wish I had some way to say
You're going through so much
Don't you know that I could be the one to hold you?
Every single day
I find it hard to say
I could be yours alone
You will see someday
That all along the way
I was yours to hold
I was yours to hold
I'm stretching but you're just out of reach
You should know
I'm ready when you're ready for me
And I'm waiting for the right time
For the day I catch your eye
To let you know that I'm yours to hold
Every single day
I find it hard to say
I could be yours alone
You will see someday
That all along the way
I was yours to hold
I was yours to hold
Every single day
I find it hard to say
I could be yours alone
You will see someday
That all along the way
I was yours to hold
I was yours to hold
I'm stretching but you're just out of reach
