Invisible

My child,

You see we've dug a hole so deep
We cant get out

We shoot for the stars
And now, were on our way down

And I've got to let you know, see youve been told, otherwise
And I know youre letting go
But tonight, hold on tight

Cos you are not
Invisible
Give us time
To look beyond ourselves
You are not
Replaceable
Give us time
To place it all together now


My child,

You see we got lost somewhere
In the progress
We all know

Were in this beauty chase
That we looked pass
The perfection on your face

And I've got to let you know, see youve been told, otherwise
And I know youre letting go
But tonight, hold on tight

Cos you are not
Invisible
Give us time
To look beyond ourselves
You are not
Replaceable
Give us time
To place it all together now
You are free



"I dont need no machinery
I just need a place to call my home

I dont need no breaking speed
I just need a hand to hold

I dont need no machinery
I just need someone to take me home

I dont need no breaking speed
I just need to find my soul"

Chasing

I know I've been here before
So many times before

I think you don't wanna see me no more
With my face flat on the floor
Please tell me I'm wrong

Surrender
Is not a decision I made
Its a choice I have to make
Not a gamble I took
Its the only chance I have to take
Is not a prize I claim
Its a place I wanna be
Cos the only time I stand firm
Its when I'm down on my knees

and giving…
What isn't mine in the first place

I'm not the steady kind of guy
And I burn, with no steady kind of fire

But steady, is not what you require
Persistance, is all that you desire
In chasing your heart

Surrender
Is not a decision I made
Its a choice I have to make
Not a gamble I took
Its the only chance I have to take
Is not a prize I claim
Its a place I wanna be
Cos the only time I stand firm
Its when I'm down on my knees

and giving…
What isn't mine in the first place



Why does it get harder each time
It gets harder to lie
You see right through the very worst in me
You seeing through the very worst in me

Surrender
Is not a decision I made
Its a choice I have to make
Not a gamble I took
Its the only chance I have to take
Is not a prize I claim
Its a place I wanna be
Cos the only time I stand firm
Its when I'm down on my knees

and giving…
What isn't mine in the first place

Sirens

We're so scared to fall
But fear is what that brings us to the bottom
We're sleeping with the pain
We've come to think we can't live without it
You see we're all finding our way
And victims to this human nature
Were counting down our days
Just hoping it'll be worth the wait

I hear the sirens pass me by
I say why oh why
I hear the crying in the night
I say poor boy please don't die
Next moment I wake up, the voices ask me if I am alright
You had a close one, and you barely made it out of here alive
Then I realize, I'm the one thats being saved tonight

Its not how many times you fall
Or how you jump back on your feet again
You see its not about you burning
Its about the fire your'e breathing in

I hear the sirens pass me by
Im singing why oh why
I hear the crying in the night
Im singing poor boy please don't die
Next moment I wake up, the voices ask me if I am alright
You had a close one, and you barely made it out of here alive
Then I realize, I'm the one thats being saved tonight

Its more than my breaking, its about the sacrifice you made
So as the blood enters my veins, I am awake
I am awake


Hallelujah
I'm falling to my knees
Sing Hallelujah
I'm falling to my knees
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
