EVERGREEN TERRACE LYRICS

1. Sweet Nothings Gone Forever

betrayed by a love. sweet nothings gone forever.
please let me go.
you dont know what this has done to me.
i cry for you.
your words hold true though the stainglass windows of my broken soul.
i will stand up strong, reach the end of this quest, one more time.
hold me up again one more time.
praise. hold me up again.

2. Tevis Sux

now i know the consequence of my sins.
take me lord just as i am.
only you can see through into my mind and through all the lies.
and you looking into my heart where we start to breakdown.
peering through my heart now i know the consequences of my sins once before but never again.

3. Failure Of A Friend

through preperation and years of screaming.
it has come down, it has come down to this.
i dismiss all the action taken to scar me.
i'll take it upon myself to bear the pain even as the sale covers the wounds.
and you will never know how this has hurt me
i'll take it upon myself to bear the pain even as the salt covers the wounds

4. Embrace

these walls that we build save me from myself.
in exchange of life for blood i am justified purified made right in your eyes.
for you justified by faith alone in you purified by grace alone.
forgoing the stain of pride with knowing our pain subsides.
we build the walls.
i feel the bite of this world
but i cling to you even under persecution in this world that i hate,
i wait your embrace.

5. Manifestation Of Anger

why do i take my anger and hide in in my heart,
for me to manifest it and it to rot my soul.
pushing out all i had for you now i take my life in your hands.
for i am forgiven.
falling down i cry to you in my hour of darkness.
take my life in your hands for i am nothing without you.
tear the walls down i know that you will in these days
i look away from the light that set forth my freedom.
my heart burns from you to take it all.

6. What Would Jesus Do With A Weapon

the blood that stains your hands will never be washed clean.
shooting victims with the weapon of our design you knew all along teaching us to give in.
so bleed us dry.
i will not be a martyr for your crusades.
this war will never be for you.

7. In My Dreams I Can Fly

im screaming out but you dont hear what i say.
Im grounded now in my dreams i wish to fly away.
i scream with my anger my lungs gasp for oxygen.
when this comes i wont wake up.
i can sleep through lies and infidelity.
i will give all i can.
i will give all i have but i fear its not enough.
im screaming out but you dont hear what i say.
im grounded now in my dreams i wish to fly away

8. Behind My Back

so you think that you are better,
better than this better than all. broken.
you dont know just how i feel.
you dont know just what is real.
so why did you say those things to try and hurt me.
did you think that you were better than this better than all.

9. This Wonderful Hatred

wonderful.
gossip wonders from your mouth to kiss the ground.
did i ask to see you did i ask to follow your words.
its all you want to know.
you let this come between us and your actions break us.
i held onto everyone of your words just to be cut down.
this wonderful hatred finds its way to me
and in your tone i can hear all the lies.
this wonderful hatred towards your words
are like the embers that burn.
it dosent make a difference you want it all.
they turn to ashes and pass us by like the days we never had.

10. Look Up At The Stars And You're Gone

mans fall, a cause for my hatred.
it turns rage and is repressed inside to strike me blind with my anger stricken with rage.
but in me a passion dwells to give all that i have.
i can no longer hide this hate for the world.
i can no longer hide this hate for what you've done.
you take your broken path but never expect me to follow,
ill take your tired lies and shove tham all back down your throat.

11. Sunday Bloody Sunday

[Originally by U2]

I can't believe the news today
I can't close my eyes and make it go away
How long? how long must we sing this song?
How long? how long?
Tonight we can be as one - tonight
Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across a dead end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up, puts my back up against the wall

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday

And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me who has won?
The trenches dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday

How long? how long must we sing this song?
How long? how long?
Tonight we can be as one - tonight
(Tonight) Sunday, bloody Sunday
(Tonight) Sunday, bloody Sunday

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your tears away
(Wipe your tears away) Sunday, bloody Sunday
(Wipe your tears away) Sunday, bloody Sunday

And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die

The real battle yet begun
To claim the victory Jesus won
On Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
