ALTARS LYRICS

1. Opposition

We are the opposition!

2. Advocate

[feat. Chad Ruhlig of For the Fallen Dreams]

Who do you think you are?
I've built my life on belief.
How could I let it slip away, much less without skipping a beat?
I choose to live my life this way.
Some make it look so easy to forget just who who you are, so who wants responsibility?
Just who do you think you are?
You think this holds me back.
You think you know much more.
The things you say hold me back are exactly what make me soar.
Your words are getting old to me.
Build yourself up!
You should just let me be.
This is my hands of hope, and I won't let go.
This is a lamp to my feet.
This is all I know.
You can live your life and let me live mine.
This life is my battle cry.
This is my way, my why.
This hate means nothing to me.
Just pure negativity.
The Grace is all I need.

3. Severance

Sever the ties.
There are things in life that hold us back.
"It's not in me. It's not in me."
If you don't look, you'll fall off the track.
"I can't let it go. I can't let it go."
It is up to you to look away.
"I'll just stay here. I'll just stay safe."
There is an answer.
There is a way.
"I need an answer. I need a way. I cannot stay in this godforsaken place."
Can you not see the hope that lies ahead?
Your sight is stick in the here and now.
There are things in life that hold us back.
You will never learn until you let go.
You only held me back.
Now it's time to let go.

4. The Struggler

Look around!
We're tearing each other apart.
Look around as this world fades away.
Look up!
Look down!
Hope does not paint this picture.
Look around; life dies a little every day.
It seems that we've passed the point of no return.
Should I sit idly by?
We cannot stand for this.
This is a red brick war.
I'm done trying to be what you want me to be.
No longer will I see what you want me to see.

5. Heresy

Let's put ourselves here, here in this world, trying to prove someone wrong.
With reason and doubt, you'll figure out.
You'll find just what you seek.
It's not that easy.
Stop thinking it out.
There's not a way to fathom the world.
As of right now, I am what I am.
I stand where I stand.
When faith is what finds us, our minds are at ease.
My own over-thinking us just my disease.
We search and we search for the cause and result, and with what we'll find are no feelings of hope.
The answer is not in the books.
The answer is in the faith we hold.

6. Volition

It's in your hands.
The choice is yours to change your life, to turn away from all your strife.
It's so easy to see the light.
He gave His life.
Now give Him yours.
This desolate world has nothing in store.
You might think you are in too deep, but now it's time to hear the words we speak.
You might feel like no one's listening, but you've got what it takes to end your suffering!
End your suffering.
Now you have the gift.
It's in your possession.
The gift is in your possession.
What will you do with it?
