FALLSTAR LYRICS

1. Hunters

We give you violence
Circumstance means nothing when you're sleep walking
I'm locked inside this brutal war that I must win

Heaven advances forcefully
And violent men lay hold of it
Brothers brace yourselves, for your bodies will be torn
But I won't cut and chant, for an unburnt offering

Everything I've ever done I leave it all behind
While the skeptics and the critics jade their minds and loose their sight
I would give my life tonight, I will always
Search and scrape and hunt and fight 'cause salvation's my prize

Oh my God make me a killer
Oh Jesus help me to set aside my will

Increase so I decrease
Don't stop until I'm like you
Lest they think you're not a God or you're fast asleep
Lest they say that, I am not your son

Oh my God make me a killer
Oh Jesus help me to set aside my will

Everything I've ever done I leave it all behind
While the skeptics and the critics jade their minds and loose their sight
I would give my life tonight, I will always

2. Black Clouds

My God my God. I clench my teeth. Waiting for your grace to shine through these blackened clouds leanding teh way. Leading the way. And I will follow you. My God, my God shelter us. My God my God, I wear this world like a gash to the cehst and lines on my wrist. It bleeds me... I saw a man leave the city with the world on his shoulders. He looked me in the eyes and I knew he's not coming back. We march to our own funerals. I will lfollow you always. It bleeds me dry. I've been wearing my organs on the outside. I saw a man leave teh city with the weight of the world on his shoulders. He looked me in the eyes and I knew he's not coming back. Take what I am. Take my life. And you, I will follow.

3. Reconciler

I feel it in my heart of hearts
And it swallowed me
Like designer drugs and gasoline it moves me
This must be love

I think I'm waking up this time (with every breath)
My hands now move like you

You swallowed waves that kept me pushing backwards
You changed my name and made me in your likeness
My heart once was cold but now it's pumping fire

We killed God
And tried to find him
But there was no body to be found
I felt his spirit inside me
And now I'm looking like him

I think I'm waking up this time (with every breath)
My hands now move like you

You swallowed waves that kept me pushing backwards
You changed my name and made me in your likeness
My heart once was cold but now it's pumping fire

I... have...been...

Reconciled

My hands they lift to praise you
My body moves to please you
My hands wait for your words
You'll know us by our works

LOVE HAS SWALLOWED ME WHOLE.

4. Horse Without A Rider

Morning song elixir. With a spinal tap addiction. Culture shock injection to a monotone inflection. Horse without a rider with a golden message for the steeple. Carpet bomb “prosperity” to the poorest congregations. Send in the man. Send in the face. Our itching ears sifting for what we want to hear. Send in the man. Send in the face. Usher us to a veneer of a truth that is truer than true. Hit the floor. Hit the floor. Change the face of the world as we know. Won't let go. Can't Ignore. See the need. Regard those on the outside. Hit the floor. Hit the floor. Change the face of the world as we know. Won't let go. Can't Ignore. To seek the will of my God is the joy of my being. A Kingdom void of currency. Messiah with no bed to sleep. Cling to wealth and surely sink. Autonomy I gladly leave. For the promise that he made me satisfies. His welcome never does deny the broken tyrant and smallest child. He satisfies.

5. Saratoga Springs

So I press my ear to the ground. For when the Great Spirit speaks. I will move with the wind. What it took me to learn I cannot read the skies. What it took me to learn the smoke in my eyes was signals and signs. Where the willow trees sing out by the water’s edge. You were tending your garden in the sun. Whoa. We raise with colored crowns. He calls us from the ground. He gave us the dance, the movement the wings. He gave us a song to sing, to scream. In my heart’s a battle, it’s long and must be won. He gave us a song to sing, to scream. All other gods lie prostrate before you sobbing and professing their inadequacy. His name is Donner. His name is Blitzen. I will move. Magma recreate. May this earth be born again.

6. Lurchers

Your voice is a thunderstorm. Give me a volcano for a heart. I was raptured out of the exodus of broken men. I will be an awful weapon in your hands. Refiner make me, make me gold, pure as glass. I am found in places I don't want to be. Oh my God it's all the same. Erase my name. I'm changing my face. The truest of colors just bring me to shame. Oh you can turn these kings around, lay them down. They end with my heels snapping their necks. I am coming clean. May spirit drain flesh just like glass grates on skin. My shadow withers like a corpse as I run towards the sun, I'll never stop. I will never ever stop. He makes me gold, pure as glass. Stop. I'll never stop. We won't stop. Until our bones break and our hearts just stop. We won't stop. Until our bodies warm the ground and the night is called by the howling of these dogs. Lurchers. We're becoming, we're becoming lurchers. Oh turn these kings around, lay them down. They end.

7. Drunkaholics Anonymous

So they know we know, they know our stomachs are on fire. I've tasted distances before so I chase you like a lover. I am blurred dry-heave drunken stupors. I can't pick up myself. And I raise my hands up, I wanna touch you. Course through my veins and capillaries you know I don't see straight. And I raise my hands up, I wanna touch you. I wanna drink you. I spin ceiling to the floor, just holding on chairs to keep me standing, but you put me safely to bed. You washed out my hair. How can we lose... We played the flute you did not dance. We sang a dirge you did not cry. And I raise my hands up, I wanna touch you. If you were a glutton and a drunk so may that name be mine. And I raise my hands up, I wanna touch you. Can I drink you? How can we lose our self in you? How can we lose ourselves? It's in your name that we come.

8. Face The Floor

Humbly I come. For who am I but a child? You delight in my prayers. You seek out requests. From my cries gain answers. And righteous words are weighted. You make nations crumble. You give lepers new hands, yeah. You captivate me. Beginning and the end. Trembling, I approach your throne yeah. My king was torn. My king was torn for us so that we might never die. Pardon me. Excuse me. Pardon me but I'll just face the floor, yeah. 'Cause I have no words, yeah. Burden me. Consume me. Burden me so I can speak your words, yeah. Open my throat, yeah. Throat, yeah. Open my throat, yeah. Disclose your heart. Enoch what was it you did in seeking God, that made him unable to wait? I search like a starving wolf, and I tread where I've seen you walk. Take these hands. Use them freely. My prayers persist until you satisfy me. With boldness I approach your throne, yeah. Confidently I approach your throne, yeah.

9. Contortionist

My love came back to me broken closed and confused. The second I turned away my nose started to bleed and every step I walk away I loose my chains. I loose my chains. I walked into your room. I saw you gluing on your face. I stared that demon in the eye. Feast after feast you consume but you just swallow... swallow more mouths. I need to leave. You know I cannot compete with your dreams and the flickering screen. They let you down. You lied to me. Like so many times before, we're tangled and torn. My love was dancing in the sunlight. She cut me like a rudder in the sea. I put my hand in the palm of an angel, when she turned around I saw demon's wings. Oh how these black clouds surround, I saw them pouring from her mouth. I saw her change before my eyes. You've nothing left to offer me. Your pretty face is just a ring in the snout of a pig. Give up the pig. Blessed is the one who never looks back. Hold fast like a man and walk away.

10. Windows

I'm asking Please! Where are you? 'Cause I've never heard your voice before. I believe there's truth, I'm wanting it so bad because these movements are windows. Though I cannot understand their origins. These words are walls, because I cannot understand their meanings. You are always asking always searching for something. So I sent my son to lead you to my love. His life to set fire to your weary bones. So look to me and I will give you... Rest. Rest your weary bones. I feel I am hunger I am thirst. Was I born a rat just to taste gutters? I wander with my cuts. And I will not end my life in broken wrist fist fights. Savior bring me truth.
It's hard for me to see how you see anything in me. Though honestly I guess I have no right to disbelieve, but I've looked in the mirror and nothing in those eyes show anything worth chasing though I am constantly pursued. My brothers, I'm sorry. I see your faith and doubt, though what I've seen is lovely it turns ugly in my eyes. I don't think I feel what it is you feel, and only for that reason I still question if it's real. Though you worry less, and smile more than anyone I've seen before, and all because you say you've died, your life is not your own. But how is this done? I know I'm alive because I was born. How do I set free a life when its all I've ever known? Well I prefer not to be alone, I'd rather have some company. I've been feeling a little restricted though these coins they all cry liberty. And they call you a God, but what does that mean? I've heard that word so many times I wish I'd never heard it at all. So I'll call you a friend, because from friends I've seen love. But my friends they betray me and have tendancies to leave. So I'll try you as father, and I'll try not to bother you if you are busy or you're taking a nap. If you've given me nothing to call you by what name should I scream as I'm facing the sky? What name should I call when I notice I'm falling? You know us humans, we've never been too good at flying. And from what I've seen, if you love me you must want something in return. Sir, I'm only a boy, I've got nothing to offer. There was one I loved with everything though in the end, I lost her.
Beautifully as breeze you gently whisper please. Please, please, just spend some time with me. That's all I ask, that's all I need. Call me your friend, call me your brother. Call me your father, call me your mother. I gave you all of these so you could catch a glimpse of me, if any of them ever loved you, boy I promise that was me. And while they turn their backs on you, boy I swear I'll never leave. So please, please, just spend some time with me.
