In His Mind He Breaks Down the WallsWell he’s all alone with his soul/The night is here again, he’ll lose control/And he knows it, as he sits there calmly, in his mind he breaks down the walls/It’s a figure of speech, I never meant anything when I said, “I love you man, I hope you’re feeling alright, okay. Feeling better? Alright, okay.”/Well I never said a word I meant to keep, but for you to the Lord I pray I change/It’s Two A.M. his life is on the line, in his mind he breaks down the walls/And he thinks he might have just enough time before the pain makes him too afraid/Quietly he waits through the dark of the night as a tear runs down his face/He begins to pray/Truth be told we never stop, we say, “I’ll pray for you, you’re in my thoughts.”/Oh but we’re so quick to close the door, saying, “I’m holding out hope for the Lord.”/And I can’t watch lest I start to know the agony you feel most every day/So I begin to pray to the Lord who forgives his own, I begin to pray, Lord forgive me now/O Lord, forgive me now/If you can, forgive me somehow, O Lord, forgive me now/It’s a figure of speech, I never meant anything when I said, “I love you man, I hope you’re feeling alright, okay. Feeling better? Alright, okay.”/Well hey I never said a word I meant to keep, but for you to the Lord I pray I change/And sitting here my heart begins to sink as I think about the extent to which you’re brave/Cowardice has been my middle name, but for you to the Lord I pray I change/Oh for you to the Lord I pray I change
The Peace to ComeFigure out the stranger ways, I have seen all of this, over and over again/A broken word, children’s hurt, multiply the pain, over and over again/Hallelujah again/Golden man, shattered heart, fortune wide and anger deep, over and over again/Throw it down, hit the ground, every thought will make a sound, over and over again/Hallelujah again, hallelujah again/So why, why wait if these storms are what we call hope?/Give it up, let it go, over and over again, over and over, over and over again/Images upon a screen, lend an eye and make believe, over and over again/Give it up and turn away, a fool’s attempt in silence kept, over and over again/Hallelujah again, hallelujah again/So why, why wait if these storms are what we call hope?/And why deal with pain if hardships are certain as the rain?/Why, why wait if these storms are what we call hope?/Why deal with pain if hardships are certain as the rain/Give it up, let it go, the peace to come is better than you know/Give it up, let it go, the peace to come is better/The peace to come is better/The peace to come is better than you know/Give it up, let it go, the peace to come is better than you know
