With Arms Wide Open
Well I just heard the news today
It seems my life is going to change
I closed my eyes, begin to pray
Then tears of joy stream down my face
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
Well I don't know if I'm ready
To be the man I have to be
I'll take a breath, I'll take her by my side
We stand in awe, we've created life
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything ...oh yeah
With arms wide open..wide open
[Guitar Break]
If I had just one wish
Only one demand
I hope he's not like me
I hope he understands
That he can take this life
And hold it by the hand
And he can greet the world
With arms wide open...
With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything..oh yeah
With arms wide open....wide open
Signs
This is not about age
Time served on the earth doesn't mean you grow in mind
This is not about God
Spirtitual insinuations seem to shock our nation
Come with me I'm fading underneth the lights
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me now
This is not about race
It's a decision to stop the division in your life
This is not about sex
We all know sex sells abd the whole world is buying
Come with me I'm fading underneth the lights
Come with me
Come with me
Come with me now
Can't you see the signs?
See the signs now
Can't you see them?
See the signs
You see them
All the signs we see them
Can't you see them?
My Sacrifice
Hello my friend, we meet again
It's been awhile, where should we begin?
Feels like forever
Within my heart a memory
A perfect love that you gave to me
Oh, I remember
When you are with me I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My Sacrifice
We've seen our share of ups and downs
Oh how quickly life can turn around
In an instant
It feels so good to realize
What's in yourself and within your mind
Let's find peace there
When you are with me I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My Sacrifice
I just want to say hello again
I just want to say hello again
When you are with me I'm free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
Cause when you are with me I am free
I'm careless, I believe
Above all the others we'll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My Sacrifice, My Sacrifice
I just want to say hello again
I just want to say hello again
My Sacrifice.
Bullets
Walking around I hear the sounds of the earth seeking relief
I'm trying to find a reason to live,
But the mindless clutter my path
Oh these thorns in my side,
Oh these thorns in my side...
I know I have something free
I have something so alive
I think they shoot 'cause they want it
I think they shoot 'cause they want it
I think they shoot 'cause they want it (!)
I feel forces all around me
Come on raise your head
Those who hide behind the shadows
Live with all that's dead
(Chorus)
Look at me...look at me
(Look at me)At least look at me when you shoot a bullet throughmy head
Through my head
Through my head
In my lifetime when I'm disgraced,
jealousy and lies
I laugh aloud 'cause my life
Has gotten inside someone else's mind
Look at me...look at me
(look at me)At least look at me when you shoot a bullet throughmy head
Through my head
Through my head
Hey all I want is what's real
Something I touch and can feel
I'll hold it close and never let it go
Said why...why do we live this life
With all this hate inside
I'll give it away 'cause I dont want it no more
Please help me find a place
Somewhere far away, yes, I'll go and you'll never see me again
One Last Breath
Please come now
I think I’m falling
I’m holding on to all
I think is safe
It seems I found the road
to nowhere
And I’m trying to escape
I yelled back when I heard thunder
But I’m down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say
Hold me now
I’m six feet from the edge and
I’m thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain’t so far down
I’m looking down
now that it’s over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought
I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in His grace
I cried out heaven save me
But I’m down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me say
Hold me now
I’m six feet from the edge and
I’m thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain’t so far down
Sad eyes follow me
But I still believe
there’s something left for me
So please come stay with me
‘Cause I still believe
there’s something left
for you and me
For you and me
For you and me
Hold me now
I’m six feet from the edge
and I’m thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain’t so far down (2x)
Please come now
I think I’m falling
I’m holding on to all
I think is safe
Creed - My Own Prison
A court is in session, a verdict is in
no appeal on the docket today
just my own sin
the walls are cold and pale
the cage made of steal
screams fill the room
alone I drop and kneel
Silence now the sound
my breath the only motion around
Demons cluttering around
my face showing no emotion
Shackled by my sentence
expecting no return
Here there is no penance
my skin begins to burn
So I held my head up high
hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
We're all held captive out from the sun
a sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one
I hear a thunder in the distance
see a vision of a cross
I feel the pain that was given
and that sad day of loss
A lion roars in the darkness
only he holds the key
A light to free me from my burden
and grant me life eternally
Should have been dead
on a Sunday morning
banging my head
No time for mourning
ain't got no time
Should have been dead
on a Sunday morning
banging my head
No time for mourning
ain't got no time
So I held my head up high
hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
We're all held captive out from the sun
a sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one
I cry out to God
seeking only his decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I’ve created my own prison
I cry out to God
seeking only his decision
Gabriel stands and confirms
I’ve created my own prison
So I held my head up high
hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
So I held my head up high
hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
We're all held captive out from the sun
a sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one
So I held my head up high
hiding hate that burns inside
Which only fuels their selfish pride
We're all held captive out from the sun
a sun that shines on only some
We the meek are all in one
