You found me east of the park
Just after dark
When the sky was still dyed red

No sign of external abuses
Just bruises
From my heel to my head

You knew you'd postpone this death
Though I didn't want to be
You drew your own life breath
And breathed into me
I rolled and choked on life as it stung
Air cold broke like a knife to the lungs

I looked into eyes I'd never known,
And saw a debt I could never own.
But you just smiled and sent me home.
Today gravity gave way
The lost finally flew home
You led them on parade
From your grave to your throne

The bolted gates gave way
On both the sides of death
And she was dismayed
As she took her final breath

Oh... The day between dark and life
Oh... The day between death and light
Where the world thought all was lost,
and you left death double crossed

Oh... we took a sabbath's rest
Oh... while you overcame the test
Our works for heaven done,
the lamb of God has overcome.

They thought the light went out
It was just shining underground
You'll clear all of their doubts
When tomorrow comes around

The day before today
They ran from where you died
Soon they'll be running to the grave
To take their places at your side

Oh... The day between dark and life
Oh... The day between death and light
Where the world thought all was lost,
and you left death double crossed

Oh... we took a sabbath's rest
Oh... while you overcame the test
Our works for heaven done,
the lamb of God has overcome.

We are the second man
On the second day
Every second we're here
Till he comes again
Is all for his glory

Oh... The day between dark and life
Oh... The day between death and light
Where the world thought all was lost,
and you left death double crossed

Oh... we took a sabbath's rest
Oh... while you overcame the test
Our works for heaven done,
the lamb of God has overcome.
Easter is coming
You took one step closer
and two steps back
well if it's over
you can't go back

Look over your shoulder
It's still a fact
When it's over
You can't go back

Who do you think you are
Who do you think you scarred
Who do you think fell for who
Who do they say I am
You'll never understand
Just who walked away from whom

I took one step closer
Two steps back
Still going nowhere
That's a fact

Ooh I'm never gonna get home

One step closer
To where I was
Still going nowhere that's because
Ooh... I know I've never been home

Who do you think you are
Who do you think you scarred
Who do you think is falling for who
Who do they say I am
You'll never understand
Just who walked away from whom

One step closer
Two steps back
Still going nowhere
That's a fact

Ooh I'm never gonna get home
You're never gonna get home
We're never gonna get home
Your skin feels like whiskey
And I'm thirstin' for a taste
I'm dying to touch and see
How much before I waste
The sense to know purpose
But I can feel your preface
Slip between the surface
Beneath drunk and awake
Hear our heart beats shake
Like ice spins in liquid fire
And cools the heart's desire
Between skin and sin we pull
**And sink the cup that is half full
I
Found
You shining
Like crystal at noon
And you lit up my room
And put rainbows on my walls
Until I didn't feel my heart
Was as cold as a stone
The beats started
To drone and
Sing of
you
&
I
He sat in the periphery of his own life
(And asked 'are you okay?')
And he didn't know how to answer
Or who was asking for that matter

(Why won't you go away)
He whispered back to himself
And sat in silence

Outside and within
And watched the red light
Flicker across the window pane
(Am I okay)
He asks himself,
Really meaning, will things ever change.
Her hands were tired creased with lines that ceased to feel and felt to find the things that warmed the skin and lit her fingers crimson.
Like when she was ten and hid a torch in her hand to feel the warmth of light, and marvel at the light inside.

But the batteries have died,
The light's burnt out.
Her hands have gone numb.

The heat of the dawn and she closes her eyes to the sun, (was the sky ever this bright?) She looks through closed eyes at the crimson gold and flecks of dust, and touches her cheeks.

Warmth, was always within.
And her her eyes try to cool the flame,
as her fingers tingle.
