Broken angel with blackened wing How you found me down to nothing Damage lesson, hardened heart But you stepped in, defenses fell apart No one can trust in a world upside down These iron bars need to hold down, keep you out Play it safe, stay away from your danger But you pull me closer, you’re water in my drought Fall into your world Falling in to you Come the way you are Come the way you are Come the way you are My broken angel with blackened wing Fold around me, comfort bring Now through the darkness, up from the ashes Scars on the surface, forty lashes No one can trust in a world upside down These iron bars need to hold down, keep you out Play it safe, stay away from your danger But you pull me closer, you’re water in my drought Falling in to you I thought I knew the score Love is just self-interest, nothing more No good deed goes unpunished But here you stand without defense, without demand Fall into your world Falling in to you Fall into your world I’m falling in to you Come the way I am Come the way I am Come the way I am Falling in to you

At the darkest hour When the world breaks me Crushed beneath and dragged under And these wounds are growing Listen right now I’ll tell you a story All about how our lives are vain glory A pound of flesh, a fall before me All around our destiny Well it’s easy to conceal when your life’s in line Nice house in the suburb and the kids are growing fine But what’s the point in praying when no answers are conveying Show up here, show up now, if you’re real show me how Where is God? In the pain, where Is God? Where is God? Here in the pain, where is God? At the edge We’re all floating on the surface In a cesspool of life The only hope open eyes now to see through Not as a child, my angel’s made of broken pieces Broken pieces What of these broken pieces? What good are broken pieces? Where is God? What is there to say when it all falls away And the good for the long goes all down the drain? But could it be that this is where I really find the how? Pushed beyond the limit ‘till I lay it all down? Is there something bigger is there something more for me? Is this pain a trigger meant to find a bigger glory? Can life renew my past? Can I write a better story? There’s nothing left to lose, if this is real come and floor me Not faith but knowing Where is God? In the pain, where is God? (Let me in) Where is God? Here in the pain, where is God? (Let me in) You’re not where they claimed you’d be What is your choice to be? It’s everything There’s so much more than meets the mind Are you willing to find a look beyond time? What is your life to mean? There is God At the darkest hour When the world breaks me Crushed beneath and dragged under And these wounds are showing

You’re whispering through me Stillness I draw near Heartbeat of a new me Measured in tears Coming It’s coming to me now Nothing to oppose there is life where He goes Now she loves like water flows Can it be real for me? Can I find, this time? Break the chains of mental games I want to go where the water flows Coming Coming to me now Let go of the wall, it’s nothing at all When love like water falls No position on earth Can touch what it’s worth When this love This love falls Supernatural She says supernatural love is His supernatural It’s a supernatural love Supernatural She says supernatural love is His supernatural Can’t contain it It’s a supernatural love You’re whispering through me Stillness I draw near Heartbeat of a new me Measured out in tears Coming It’s coming through me now No will to oppose there is life where He goes Now he loves like water flows Supernatural She says supernatural love is His supernatural Can’t contain it It’s a supernatural love Like water flows (Supernatural) She’s got a supernatural love (Supernatural) Like water falls (I want supernatural) She loves like water flows (Supernatural) Like water flows (I want supernatural) She got a supernatural love (Give me supernatural) Like water falls (I want supernatural) A love like water flows

The Red 04:34
This is right, that is wrong This is good, that’s a song of evil This is in, that is out This is in, and you’re just sweet as candy And ugly underneath Have you read the red? With an open mind Have you read the red? Are traditions blind? We got it all figured out The truth of all there is? Don’t ask for any answers Not prepared to give We’re cherry picking in a Biblical orchard This is in, that is out This is in, and you can think just like us Welcome to the club But only if you speak and act as we approve But have you read the red? With an open mind Have you read the red? How can we be so blind? Ours the only truth Throughout all of time? Arrogance is not divine And the serpent’s inside Cherry picking in a Biblical orchard Get out of the red chair Have you really read the red? Or are you talking of the dead? Have you really read the red? Or are you talking of the dead? Have you really read the red? Or are you talking of the dead? Have you really read the red? Who are you talking of the dead? Rebel, rebel fighting second-hand stories Rebel, rebel fighting second-hand stories Fighting paper tigers in a world of lies Arrogance denies, cups so dirty Have you read the red? As you walk through the valley Of the shadow of death And look into the eyes The Stranger Have you read the red? With an open mind? Have you read the red? Our traditions blind Claim the only words To name the one divine And miss the bigger find Universal design There is a greater view He’s calling out to you Get out of the red chair

Undeniably wrecked inside Can’t run, no fight can hide, no lie can survive Listen to the life inside your heartbeat In the silent knowing spaces In the everlasting places It’s the ending of self’s faces When life has called our aces Stripped away those false replacements for you Effacement, it’s coming through God’s Love is a steamroller I’m undeniably wreaked inside Broken God’s Love is a steamroller Can’t run, no fight can hide the heart of that Light God’s Love is a steamroller I’m undeniably wrecked inside Broken God’s Love is a steamroller Listen to the fire of the ages Find truth like mystic sages Freed from these locked up cages The horizons of salvation Transcending dark creation And there is no replacement for you Effacement, we’re coming through God’s Love is a steamroller I’m undeniably wrecked inside Broken God’s Love is a steamroller Can’t run, no fight can hide the heart of that Light God’s Love is a steamroller Love Is God’s Love is a steamroller Let it go, let it go, let it go, let is roll, let it roll, let it roll God’s Love is a steamroller Love Is God’s Love is a steamroller Listen to the life inside your heartbeat To the life inside your heartbeat To the life inside your heartbeat
