Lemme tell you 'bout a boy from Utah County Born with a vision of clarity Used to have a couple heroes, now they're dead to me Blow my voice out 'til you get the concept I'll bare my soul for the real to witness Come take a listen, it's time to get lifted You wanna be somebody else? You wanna run from all this hell? You ain't got no spine I'll fight a million men (Fight a million men) I'll fight a million more (Fight a million more) Push me to the limit, baby, I was made for war If I'ma pass the test (Pass the test) I'ma need a miracle, my God, my God My God So you really think I deserve it? Even though I'm not the man I used to be Well, I found a new sense of purpose (Purpose) And it's in something that you can't see When I show up at the gates of Hell I'm gonna walk up to the fallen star and take his horns When the pigs throw me in jail I'll annihilate the walls that keep me in Lotus echoes in an endless realm of choice Hear the wind behind a still, small voice Father, make me certain You wanna blame all of your pain on things you can't even explain? You're so weak and dying out I'll fight a million men (Fight a million men) I'll fight a million more (Fight a million more) Push me to the limit, baby, I was made for war If I'ma pass the test (Pass the test) I'ma need a miracle by God, my God My God I won't ever give up on you I won't ever give up on you I won't ever give up on you Ooh I can't imagine what it's like to always call it quits Passing judgement like you ain't a fucking straight up bitch My bravado knows no bounds, it's why they call me the king But you can barely talk, what makes you think you can sing?

Imagine you're a constellation drifting through the firmament Wouldn't it be lovely floating endlessly? This life is full of complications, it's easy to be malcontent Wouldn't it be funny if we changed our point of view? To lose ourselves inside the divine And find our way back home from the petals of the lotus left behind All this light in the prism, all this love that we have found We are immortal, we are invincible All this grace we've been given, all our lives are a work of art I am immortal, I am invincible Tell me that you love me, say it to my face Another breath, another touch, another warm embrace I said that I can hear your heartbeat from the edge of space Ride the ripple of an echo till my Revelation Everyone is worthy of a sacred place Because no sin is great enough that it can't be erased To be enraptured in your wisdom is the cost of grace To ride the ripple of an echo 'til my Revelation You saved me (You saved me) You saved me (You saved me) You saved me from myself again (Revelation) You saved me (You saved me) You saved me (You saved me) You saved me from myself again (Revelation) I lose myself along the endless sighs And find my way back home with the voice you use that only I recognize All this light in the prism, all this love that we have found We are immortal, we are invincible All this grace we've been given, all our lives are a work of art I am immortal, I am invincible 'Cause I am immortal I am invincible 'Cause I am immortal So humor me, why don't you hear me out? What if I could erase your pain? Get rid of all your doubts? What if I knew of a place where you and I could be free? A place where we belong until our kingdom come A secret we keep safe, revival we create with our purpose In my Father's house we'll shine, until the end of time Until the end of time I'll love you, I'll love you

My will is a fortress of fate No matter what the pessimists say Hate me but I won't ever let up I embrace all the things I believe And I don't care who sees Come get me, coward Have you ever felt like you were chosen? A feared lion, among the swine Have your enemies encircled you and pierced your limbs? I heard the call (Thе call) Now I'm shining like a lantern Burning to the millionth dеgree I can be your remedy, I'll never fall Like an idol at the altar, eating all of your misery I'm a pearl in a dead sea If you focus on what could have been, you'll never be what could be We all need a shoulder to cry on If I could sort the mess of the thorns that wrap around your heart With calloused hands I'd choose to bleed And pull apart this web of teeth Designed to bite by the hands of God I guess that crown just ain't what you thought Life's a train wreck in slow motion I'm the penny on the track Have you ever felt like you're abandoned? A mere child among the giants Have your confidants deserted you in all your sins? I heard the call (Just try, just try to stop me) Now I'm shining like a lantern, burning to the millionth degree I can be your remedy I'll never fall (I'm not like you, I'll never cave) Like a lion at the altar, eating all of your misery I'm a pearl in a dead sea Had enough, picture my life Think you're tough? You don't know strife Fathered a kingdom, built a legacy I poured my heart out but it won't stop beating Had enough, picture my life Think you're tough?

I'm over throwing stones, judgement is for the weak I'd rather break my bones than live my whole damn life asleep Show me how you've grown, take a fearless leap I'd rather be unknown than a pariah to the sheep Put the knife in my back, watch me writhe I can smell the blood in the water Lord knows my hands ain't clean Do you still believe in redemption? Is there some reprieve from the fallout of all of our past lives? I relive them every time You sit up on your throne, pretend that you ain't tired Of hungry, crooked teeth that gnaw on those that you've admired How can we atone for the wickedness transpired? Endless generations died, got sent down to the fire When is enough enough? When is enough enough? When is enough enough? When is enough enough? I can smell the blood in the water Lord knows my hands ain't clean Do you still believe in redemption? Is there some reprieve from the fallout of all of our past lives? I relive them every time Who will carry my burdens? Who will carry my burdens? Who will carry my burdens? Who will carry my burdens? I can smell the blood in the water Lord knows my hands ain't clean Do you still believe in redemption? Is there some reprieve from the fallout of all of our past lives? I relive them every time At last the falling rain drops wear the stone The idol exposed A fragmented man, a luxurious life Trade it away for some peace inside When will we see? The brighter we shine, the darker it gets Constantly dreaming of freedom while sleeping

Wake up from a neon dream Cold sweat dripping from my brow The world came apart at the seams So many died to give it meaning I've been searching for you for so long Late nights bleeding into dawn A lit cigarette fills my lungs How much time do I got left? Did I do it all for nothing? Did I do it all for nothing? Show me a miracle, show me a miracle I got what it takes to give my life Wanna be the change I wish to see Wanna be the man I'm supposed to be I deal in the spiritual (I deal in the spiritual) I got what it takes to believe I'm ready to learn, I'm rеady to know What it means to be alone Thе cathedrals are all empty now I keep my head tilted down Mother Mary, can you hear our cries? Show me a miracle, show me a miracle I got what it takes to give my life Wanna be the change I wish to see Wanna be the man I'm supposed to be I deal in the spiritual (I deal in the spiritual) I got what it takes to believe I'm ready to learn, I'm ready to know What it means to be alone The cathedrals are all empty now I can't get back all the things I lost All the ones I left behind I can't get back all the things I lost All the ones I left behind

There was a time when I believed in myself But those days are over, I'm overwhelmed No reason to fight for a world that couldn't care less If I'm alive or if I'm dead I'm a lighthouse in the ocean with all the bulbs burnt out I'm an amaryllis wilting in the middle of a drought I'm a statue in a mausoleum, name engraved in silt I'm a hopeless romantic, that's the way that I was built Remember all the times we shared? Well, I hope that it was worth it, еvery pleasure, еvery pain If there's a God out there somewhere Well, I hope He can restore me to the man I was before I lost my way I'm a flame that's all but faded, feels like the walls are caving in I was jaded and pissed, overworked so I quit I couldn't atone for all my sins Now there's a lighthouse built before me Showing me everything I wanna believe But I'm a criminal, too stressed, I feel subliminal Just tryna make it through the goddamn day I pray you found a way back to solid ground Remember all the times we shared? Well, I hope that it was worth it, every pleasure, every pain If there's a God out there somewhere Well, I hope He can restore me to the man I was before I lost my way I'll get this off of my chest I've been waiting for a sign 'Cause I've been giving up, giving up slowly I ain't got no peace of mind You're on the outside, and I'm looking in When you're giving up, giving up slowly There's no way to win There was a time when I believed that the world was ready to be saved Well, I was wrong If you read this a thousand years from now This song is a gift to the misled

Is it getting any better or does it feel like it's not? Now everybody is a fucking critic, I say "fuck the whole lot" I hope you waste all your time, pretend you’re everything you're not Then maybe you'd know what it’s like to be me You'd fold every single time you walk away from all your mistakes And I'm betting down that you dropped the crown Come on, now show me what you'd do better Prove me wrong, you fucking parasites So hold my feet to the fire (Fire) I can be thе enemy you need, like a paradigm falling out of voguе My legend won't be stopped (Be stopped) So next time you see me you better get right, get right or get gone You better get right, get right or get gone, oh-oh-oh I know the reasons why you can't accept me as I am I'm a reflection of all the things that you could never be Oh beautiful demise, erase the light inside my eyes I need to know, is it worth it to go ahead and cross that line? I wish that I could escape the bitter end in my own fate But I will always start again, I will find a way to mend So hold my feet to the fire (Fire) I can be the enemy you need, like a paradigm falling out of vogue My legend won't be stopped (Be stopped) So next time you see me you better get right, get right or get gone Delusionary disappointed optimist No empty sky to tether your chains to What a generous empty promise when the mountain falls A handshake in the front, a knife in the back A tragic irony juxtapose disciples graciously Oh beautiful demise, erase the light inside my eyes I need to know is it worth it to go ahead and cross that line? I wish that I could escape the bitter end in my own fate But I will always start again, I will find a way to mend So hold my feet to the fire (Fire) I can be the enemy you need, like a paradigm falling out of vogue My legend won’t be stopped (Be stopped) So next time you see me you better get right, get right or get gone
