Anberlin - Safe Here

Later that day we made our way to the old cathedral door
A flame a figure a shadow walked away towards the tower alone
We must be close nearby hope cant her own way through dark
Its cold I'm told its grey there’s a light that never grows dim
But if all can be made right there’s still a chance on new years day
And if grace were here I would love to see her face someway somehow
And if all is well that means there is still a chance in hell
You are safe here in these arms of mine
There is shelter through the mire of life
Claiming sanctuary from the fire that drove you in
You are safe here in these arms of mine
Climbing the stairs towards heaven
Making our own way into the room empty barren not another soul in sight
Then when the moon came crawling there in the night a great divide a
Whisper a motion a calling were the 99 all right

Anberlin - Modern Age

Why so afraid to fall?
That was then, and this is now.
Horizons look different in a modern age.
Are we all lost, are we all lost in here?

Fall asleep alone.
Safer then the off-chance,
Of getting your heart attacked, one more time.
Will you ever come, will you ever come alive again?

Don't we all, want to be loved?
Don't we all, write our own song?
Let our silence break tonight!
Don't we all, learn right from wrong?
And don't we all, want to be loved?
Let our silence break tonight!

Come now, elusive sigh.
Open up their eyes to see,
So many of us, are just the same as you.
Have we all hid, have we all hid ourselves from friends?
So much else to give.
This is Hell, and that is Him.
Close your eyes, imagine they are holding you.
Will you ever find, will you ever find the words to give?

(Sing it!) Don't we all, want to be loved?
(Sing it!) Don't we all, write our own song?
Let our silence break tonight!
(Sing it!) Don't we all, learn right from wrong?
(Sing it!) And don't we all, want to be loved?
Let our silence break tonight! (Let our silence break tonight!)

There's more life, we have to lose here.
The more we give away!
You just will never keep the promises!
If all we hold is yesterday!

Sing it! Sing it! (Let our silence break tonight.)
(Sing it!) Don't we all, want to be loved?
(Sing it!) Don't we all, write our own song?
Let our silence break tonight!
(Sing it!) Don't we all, learn right from wrong?
(Sing it!) And don't we all, want to be loved?
Let our silence break tonight!
Sing it! (Let our silence break tonight!)
Sing it! (Let our silence break tonight!)

Anberlin - Type Three

I have my reasons, for the vices I embrace.
A world of treasons, I'm their only escape.
No one lives here, as conversations are drowning.
Sixteen is nothing, I never will be 'til I'm dead.

Don't bite the hand that feeds you baby. (Oh, oh.)
Take all the hands that need you lately. (Oh, oh.)
I don't wanna wait, I don't wanna wait, on you, anymore.
Don't bite the hand that feeds you baby.

Daydream that the worst sat still, dancing through the fibers of time.
Maybe I just wanna hold? Something that was never meant to be mine.
I look to Heaven to save me! And you call me naive.
Rather be a hopeless lover, then cursed with disbelief.

Don't bite the hand that feeds you baby. (Oh, oh.)
Take all the hands that need you lately. (Oh, oh.)
I don't wanna wait, I don't wanna wait, on you, anymore.
Don't bite the hand that feeds you baby.

Listen carefully now to the words that I choose:
Speak only when you are spoken to. Oh, oh.

Don't bite the hand that feeds you baby. (Oh, oh.)
Take all the hands that need you lately. (Oh, oh.)
I don't wanna wait, I don't wanna wait, on you, anymore. Oh.
Don't bite the hand that feeds you baby. (Ohh, ohhhh.)
Don't bite the hand that feeds you baby. (Don't fight, don't fight the hands.)
Don't bite the hand that feeds you baby. (Don't fight, don't fight the hands.)
Don't fight the hands that need you, lately.

Anberlin - God Drugs Sex

A grand blank look on your face
When you learned it was over
Do you ever question why
What could have been different
We were so comfortable living in each others skin
Meanwhile I was dying from within
Cause God, drugs, and sex don’t mean a thing
To you now do they now baby
I don’t mean a thing
By it now do I now sweetheart
You should have thought about then for now
But I had to leave
Tell me where did you learn to love
Maybe I don’t want to know
Tell me when did your hands grow cold
It might tell me something
If you could go back to yesterday
Would you change it all for me
If you thought we could be together
Let go, let go of me now
I’m not here
Let go, let go of me now
'cause I’m already gone

Anberlin - Innocent

Laying you down one last time.
On the sheets that will never give.
A touch that woke you gently.
I'll never know if you saw me.

Did your eyes ever, meet mine?
We see what we wanna see, sometimes.
I believe now,
Yes I believe.

We are all born innocent.
We were born to run carefree.
You'll live on in the hearts of men, constantly.
We are all born innocent.
We were born to run carefree.
I will hold on 'til the end, there'll never be an end.

There are few words I have left to say,
That have not already been said.
Your shadows, they will follow me,
Long after I've confessed.

Do your lips feel this kiss?
Do your hands feel this touch?
I miss you here,
I miss you so much.

We are all born innocent.
We were born to run carefree.
You'll live on in the hearts of men, constantly.
We are all born innocent.
We were born to run carefree.
I will hold on 'til the end, there'll never be an end. [x2]

Anberlin - Unstable

You came out of nowhere
But who could you hold wild horse unstable
Do you still do as you’re told
Think you’re wild and you’re free now
Think you can cover me, well save yourself
Pretend like you don’t do what you’re told
Come around, let me in
How can I talk you down from that ledge
Unless you let me in?
You heard when I called you
But you still lost your way
Are you able
To do just what you’re told?
Taught me to trust now
Yet you have no faith
in yourself
Why can’t you believe in what you know?
Come around (darling)
Let me in
How can I talk you down from that ledge
Unless you let me in?
How can I talk you down unless you come around,
Come around, come around?
Come around, darling
Let me in
How can I talk you down from that ledge
Unless you let me in?
Come around
Let me in
I’ll talk you down from that ledge
Unless you let me in, lovely

Anberlin - Desires

Now who are you to be the death of me
Stealing what life you need roadside while you watch me bleed
I've got to get out of here (I've got to get out of here)
Well where do you get off that we revolve around your wants and needs
There's no way I would change a one-side catastrophe
You are the only one in this room that is still the same
You're still a one-time catastrophe

A liar, a liar that’s what you made of me
A wire, a wire that’s what we're walking on
Desires, desires, it's all dressed down
Heavy lies the crown

Thought you were the one I figured out
With no creeping doubts no hiding ins or outs
But I was so wrong (I was so wrong)
The knife that’s resting in my back is proof enough for me
That you’re a one-time catastrophe

A liar, a liar, that’s what you made of me
A wire, a wire, that’s what we're walking on
Desires, desires, it's all dressed down
Heavy lies the crown
Heavy lies the crown

A liar, a liar, that’s what you made of me
A wire, a wire, that’s what we're walking on
Desires, desires, it's all dressed down
Heavy lies the crown
Heavy lies the crown

A liar, a liar, that’s what you made of me
A wire, a wire, that’s what we're walking on
Desires, desires, it's all dressed down
Heavy lies the crown

Thought I knew will and self
Thought I could tame the rest of me
Then you waltzed onto the floor
Danced to your own beat
Am I losing control
Make me want this here so much more
It's in the way you move
Am I moving your soul
You are the breath I hold
To every risk that I want to take
The way you spin around
Deadened every other sound
Am I losing control
You make me want this here so much more
It's in the way you move
Am I moving your soul
I want out of control
Make me want you here so much more
Its in the way you move
Am I losing my soul
I want out I want out of control
Want it all mind body and soul
Here and now more than you’ll ever know

Anberlin - Someone Anyone

Thought we were past this
Thought we moved on
But I guess I was wrong
Do we not learn from mistakes?
Do we not have what it takes?
Are you the cure or disease?
Do you still take as you please
Are you the cure? Or are you the disease?

Someone, someone tell me what we’re fighting for
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, no one can walk away truly alive
Someone, someone, tell me why we need this
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, no one can walk away truly alive

So we’ll be fine, yesterday’s gone
Enough hope that I’m wrong
If we don’t learn from their past
We’ll repeat them, history on at last

Are you with us or without?
Seen this ever fading out
Are with us, well are you with us?

Someone, someone tell me what we’re fighting for
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, no one can walk away truly alive
Someone, someone, tell me why we need this
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, no one can walk away truly alive

Are you the cure or disease?
Do you still take as you please?
Are you the cure? Or are you the disease?

Someone, someone tell me what we’re fighting for
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, truly alive (truly alive)

Someone, someone tell me what we’re fighting for
Anyone, anyone, anyone can start a war
No one can walk away, no one can walk away truly alive
Someone, someone, tell me why we need this.
I don’t see a reason, tell me why we need a reason

Anberlin - Otherside

Solitary view, of the other side of a plane we've yet to know,
Will we ever get the chance to walk alone?
In this life, or when we find out that we're home.
What will we hear there?

Love me! Love me!
Why don't you know me? Know me?
Hold me! Hold me!
I am just me, trust me!

When our mission's through,
I can finally forget a past you say you never knew.
I reach my hands to the sky!

Love me! Love me!
Why don't you know me? Know me?
Hold me! Hold me!
I am just me, trust me! [x2]

There's a time at our place.
At no weak end of space.
I can meet out there.
Throw your arms in the air.
Hands towards the sky, and you're here.
Hands towards the sky, and you're here.

Love me! Love me!
Why don't you know me? Know me?
Hold me! Hold me!
I am just me, trust me!

Love me! Love me!
Why don't you know me!? Just know me!
Hold me! Hold me!
I am just me, trust me!

Anberlin - Intentions

They say my vice should be vanity.
But I'll stay calm, and in the street.
I'll motivate you 'til you think I'm right.
I'll be exactly where we started tonight.
Where we started tonight.

My ambition, is all that I have!
There's attention, when you want it so bad!
We remove them, we remove them!
We remove them, we remove them!

I want a love that I don't deserve.
I want the gold that I didn't earn.
I want a fire that will never burn.
I want you there, I want you here tonight.
(I want you there, I want you here tonight.)

My ambition, is all that I have!
There's attention, when you want it so bad!
We remove them, we remove them!
We remove them, we remove them!

Your attention to the matters at hand!
Your intentions, are yet to be had!
We will find you, we will find you!
We will find you, we will find you!

(I want you there, I want you here.)
(I want you there, I want you here tonight.)

My ambition, is all that I have!
There's attention, when you want it so bad!
We remove them, we remove them!
We remove them, we remove them!

Your attention to the matters at hand!
Your intentions, are yet to be had!

Anberlin - Self Starter

Last night rolled over beside my bed
That sort of madness could leave ‘em dead
Our eyes deceive we were on fire
Mistook the love and love desire

I still can’t feel nothing
Just want to hold something
Tell me again what’s real?
Tell me again what to feel?
I still can’t feel nothing
Just want to hold something
Tell me again what’s real
Tell me again what to feel.

Why do you stay until you see blood?
Why does the weight fall upon us?
We’re on the same side in the same war
Why stay til you see blood?

Where are we that we digress
Long for love but then undress
Our hands, no bounds, our hearts detached
We grasp for all that will not last

I still can’t feel nothing
Just want to hold something
Tell me again what’s real?
Tell me again what to feel?
I still can’t feel nothing
Just want to hold something
Tell me again what’s real
Tell me again what to feel.

Why do you stay until you see blood?
Why does the weight fall upon us?
We’re on the same side in the same war
Why stay til you see blood?

Fall
Fall through the matches
Feel
Failure to progress

Why do you stay until you see blood?
Why does the weight fall upon us?
We’re on the same side in the same war
Why stay til you see blood?

I still can’t feel nothing
Just want to hold or something
Tell me again what’s real? (We’re on the same side in the same war)
Tell me again what to feel?
I still can’t feel nothing (We’re on the same side in the same war)
Just wanna hold something (Why stay til you see blood?)
Tell me again what’s real
Tell me again what to feel.

Anberlin - Little Tyrants

Soft spoken straight forward
Tell me all the ways in which you feel
So broken lying helpless can you even tell me whats for real
Great divide great divine
Am I alive someone tell me am I alive
You are the king of an island of one
Alone in a world that lost its only black son
You are the king of an island of one
A tyrant soon to come undone
All hail the king
No motives just cover
Justify the things that come to mind
All pictures no color all the wrong that you think you’ve made right
Dead inside yours is mine dead inside
Are you alive someone help me
Dead inside, yours is mine

You belong here.
You were meant for me.
You belong here.
You were meant to be with me.

You've got the better part of me.
Always have and always will
You've got the better part of me, oh.
And you know that I'm right.
And I know I'm asking too much.
And I know I'm taking control.
But, a heart that's not worth breaking isn't worth much, not at all.
Isn't worth much at all.

You belong here.
You were meant for me.
You belong here.
You belong here with me.
You were meant to be with me.

You are the better part you'll see.
Always have and always will.
You'll be the better part of me, oh, for the rest of my life.
And I know I'm asking too much.
And I know I'm all control.
But, I'll give you all I have.
It isn't much, much at all.
I'm not much at all.

You belong here.
You were meant for me.
You belong here.
You belong here with me.
You belong here (You belong here with me)
You were meant to be with me.

But, I'll give you all I have.
It isn't much, not much at all.
But, a heart that's not worth breaking isn't worth much, not at all.

You belong here.

You belong here.
You belong here with me.
You belong here (You belong here with me)
You were meant to be with me.

Anberlin - Pray Tell

Are you hiding secrets, from me?
Is there more to this life that I can't see?
What will I find out over time?
Waiting for the moment to arrive?

Why are you lying there?
What are you hiding there?

Hide away, why do you hide away from me?
Hide yourself, why do you hide your face from me?
I'm the only one that can save you now.
I'm the only one that can save you now.

Do you like the shadows in there?
Keep me in the dark, now are you scared?
Whether to have ever set you free.
Tell me, will you buckle at your knees?

What are you hiding there?
Why are you lying there?

Hide away, why do you hide away from me?
Hide yourself, why do you hide your face from me?
I'm the only one that can save you now.
I'm the only one that can save you now.

Lie to yourself, don't lie to me.
Lie to yourself, don't hide yourself.
Hide yourself, let me find you.
Find yourself, let me find you.

Hide away, why do you hide away from me?
Hide yourself away, why do you hide yourself from me?
I'm the only one that can save you now.
I'm the only one that can save you now.

Hide away, why do you hide yourself away?

Why do we have it out, for each other?
When all we have, is each other?
Piece by piece, I try to put you back together.
I'm the one who broke you down. (I broke you down.)

Fall down on me now.
Where do we get off?
(We're all we have, we're all we have.)
What's to come of us,
If all we have is gone?
(We're all we have, we're all be have.)
We'd be lost.

When did we start to build these walls?
And is there any way, to storm your gates?
Brick by brick, I try to fill the home together,
But I'm the one who burned it down. (I'm the one who burned it down.)

Fall down on me now.
Where do we get off?
(We're all we have, we're all we have.)
What's to come of us,
If all we have is gone?
(We're all we have, we're all we have.)

Fall down on me now.
Where do we get off?
(We're all we have, we're all we have.)
What's to come of us,

Holding me arms length away?
Are you there, can someone answer me?

Closer, closer, closer.
Closer, closer, closer.

Do you expect me?
To keep from crawling back.
Do you accept me?
When we both know my past.

Am I keeping safe distance?
Pushing you arms length away?
Am I keeping safe distance?
Oh, it's you that feels betrayed.
Are you there, can someone answer me?
Come where I can see.

You make my teeth clench and my hands shake
Do you ever see what you do to me?
You're wearing me out
Just wearing me out
But I'm wearing you down

You're impossible to love or leave
So impossible to win or please
I'm wearing you out
Just wearing you out
But I'm wearing you down

Take what you want from me
It means nothing now
Take everything from me
It means nothing now
Not so easy to forgive; harder to forget
Take what you want

I make your lips wet
And your moans quake
Try to think through what I can do to you
It's wearing me thin,
Can I begin to wear you out?

Take what you want from me
It means nothing now
Take everything from me
It means nothing now
Not so easy to forgive; harder to forget
Take what you want

I'm impossible to figure out
So impossible you had your doubts

Take what you want from me
It means nothing now
Take everything, honey,
It means nothing now
Not so easy to forgive; harder to forget
Take what you want from me
It means nothing now
Take everything, honey
It means nothing now
Not so easy to forgive; harder to forget
Take what you want from me

You would have loved who I used to be
Yesterday, I would have hated the boy you see
When you found me I was at my worst
The best I was is a long forgotten curse

You caught me on the way down
Please hold my hand before I drown
Tie my hands before I burn this town
You caught me on the way down

Feel like a shell of yester-years gone by
Bad decisions like ghosts that just won't die
I'm so sorry that I can't apologize
For what comes next is another long goodbye

You caught me on the way down
Honey, honey
Please hold my hand before I drown
Tie my hands before I burn this town
You caught me on the way down

You caught me on the way down
Oh, honey
Please hold my hand before I drown
Tie my hands before I burn this town
You caught me on the way down
