MY RANSOMED SOUL LYRICS

1. Conflict

IS THERE HOPE? IS THERE A PURPOSE?
WHERE ARE THE ANSWERS? ARE THERE ANSWERS?

2. A Modern Plague

TIMES HAVE CHANGE AND SO HAVE I, FOR BETTER OR WORSE I CAN'T DECIDE.
THE BOY I WAS IS NOT THE MAN I BECAME; THE QUESTION IS WHO'S TO BLAME?

AS I'VE GROWN, I'VE LOST MY FIRE;
APATHETIC WITHOUT DESIRE.

AM I HAPPY, WITH WHO I AM?
OR AM I LOST, WITHOUT A PLAN?

I SEE NOTHING BUT HEARTACHE,
INSPIRED ONLY BY GREED,
AND I AM NO EXCEPTION,
IGNORING THOSE WHO NEED.

DO WE REALLY LOVE? DO WE REALLY TRY?
OR IS IT SELF-RIGHTEOUS LIVING, NOTHING BUT EMPTY LIES?

AM I HAPPY, WITH WHO I AM?
OR AM I LOST, WITHOUT A PLAN?

WE ARE A PLAGUE, SELF-DESTRUCTIVE, IN OUR OWN WAYS

3. Desensitize

I CAN'T WAKE FROM THIS DREAM

CAN I FEEL OR EVEN SEE THIS CREATURE GROWING INSIDE ME?
AM I DEAF OR EVEN BLIND?
HAVE WE BECOME DESENSITIZED?

DENY EVERYTHING, QUESTION EVERYTHING, IS ANYTHING EVEN REAL?

FEELINGS HAVE GONE LOST AGAIN; CAN I WAKE FROM THIS DREAM?
FEELINGS HAVE GONE LOST AGAIN; CAN I WAKE FROM THIS DREAM?

HAVE WE LOST OURSELVES? HAVE WE DIED INSIDE?
IS THERE SOMETHING MORE? HAVE WE ACTUALIZED?

YOU SAY REALITY IS NOTHING MORE THAN YOU WANT IT TO BE,
I SAY REALITY IS SO MUCH MORE THAN YOU CAN SEE.

REALITY IS MORE THAN PERCEPTION; MY DREAMING EYES HAVE BEEN SOWN SHUT.
HAVE WE LOST OUR VALUES? WILL OUR EYES OPEN UP?

FEELINGS HAVE GONE LOST AGAIN, CAN I WAKE FROM THIS DREAM
FEELINGS HAVE GONE LOST AGAIN, CAN I WAKE FROM THIS DREAM.

MY DREAMS ARE NOW MY NIGHTMARES.

4. Fragile Lives

SWALLOW YOUR PRIDE

HOW HUMBLING,
IS IT TO KNOW?
THAT ALL OF THIS,
MEANS NOTHING

WE FOCUS ON,
SUCH FRAGILE LIVES,
WHEN NONE OF THIS
IS WHAT IT SEEMS

HOW LONG MUST WE, FIGHT FOR NOTHING, NOTHING AT ALL.
OH LOST, GENERATION WHERE ARE YOU NOW?

HOW CAN WE BE SAFE?
WHEN WE ARE UNCLEAN?
HOW CAN WE BE WHOLE?

WE FOCUS ON,
SUCH FRAGILE LIVES,
WHEN NONE OF THIS
IS WHAT IT SEEMS

HOW HUMBLING,
IS IT TO KNOW?
THAT ALL OF THIS
MEANS NOTHING.

CHOKE DOWN YOUR PRIDE.

5. The Sleepless Dreamer

I AM LOSING HOPE, IN EVERYTHING I WANTED MOST

I HAVE GIVEN SO MUCH, YET GAINED SO LITTLE,
ARE MY DREAMS A CRUTCH OR SOMETHING REAL?

I AM LOSING HOPE.

IS THIS WHAT IT’S COME TO? IS THIS ALL WE HAD?
IS THERE SOMETHING TO SHOW FOR THE PROGRESS THAT WE HAD?

WE'VE POURED OUR LIFE INTO THIS, IS THERE SOMETHING WE MISSED?

THIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN OUR HEARTS GOAL, YET WE SEEM TO BE LOSING CONTROL.

ARE THE MEMORIES GOLDEN? IS THIS WHAT WE DREAMED?

IS THIS WHAT IT’S COME TO? IS THIS ALL WE HAD?
IS THERE SOMETHING TO SHOW FOR THE PROGRESS THAT WE HAD?

I AM LOST.

6. The Chains That Bind Us

I'VE BECOME UNINSPIRED, A BROKEN SOUL THAT HAS GROWN TIRED,
I AM A SIMPLE MAN, WITH A HEART THAT HAS GROWN BLAND

WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES, BUT HOW LONG UNTIL WE BREAK?
WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES, BUT HOW LONG UNTIL WE'RE FAKE?

OUR HEARTS ARE CHAINED WITH HATE,
WE FAIL TO SEE WHAT LOVE CREATES.

AM I HEARTLESS, OR AM I NUMB?
(OR AM I NUMB)
I CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT I'VE BECOME.
(WHAT HAVE I BECOME?)

GIVE ME LOVE, MAKE ME INSPIRED,
I NEED THIS MORE THAN ANYTHING I'VE DESIRED.

OUR HEARTS ARE CHAINED WITH HATE,
WE FAIL TO SEE WHAT LOVE CREATES.

AM I HEARTLESS, OR AM I NUMB?
(OR AM I NUMB)
I CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT I'VE BECOME.
(WHAT HAVE I BECOME?)

LET LOVE FILL OUR HEARTS, TEAR DOWN THE WALLS WE CREATED.

7. Resolution

WE QUESTION OUR PURPOSE, FINDING NOTHING BUT FEAR, COMING TO NO CONCLUSIONS, QUESTIONING WHY WE ARE HERE.

I HAVE SEARCHED FOR MEANING, AND FOUND NOTHINGNESS; I TURNED MY EYES TO THE HEAVENS, ASKING FOR FORGIVENESS. I FELT NOTHING AT THE TIME, AND LOST ALL HOPE, THOUGHTS TURNED TO SUICIDE, WITH A LIFE I COULDN'T COPE. BUT SOMETHING CHANGED INSIDE, SOMETHING IN MY HEART, FILLING THIS EMPTY VOID, OF A LIFE TORN APART. HAD MY PRAYERS BEEN ANSWERED, BY A GOD FROM ABOVE? DID HE HEAR MY CRIES? I FELT A NEW LOVE. BECAUSE OF THAT CROSS, MY LIFE TURNED AROUND, AND TO THE CHAINS THAT HELD MY HEART, I AM NO LONGER BOUND.

8. Light The Sky

I CAN’T CONTINUE
ON THIS JOURNEY
I NEED YOUR HELP
TO CARRY ON

THE SKY IGNITES WITH YOUR LOVE
YOU’RE GUIDING ME THROUGH IT ALL
MY HEART TONIGHT FEELS YOUR LOVE
I NEED YOUR STRENGTH MOST OF ALL
(TAKE THIS BURDEN FROM ME)

I CANNOT DO THIS, ON MY OWN.

SAVIOR SAVE ME
BLESS MY BROKEN HEART
REVIVE MY FLEETING SOUL
SAVIOR SAVE ME
SAVIOR SAVE ME

THE SKY IGNITES WITH YOUR LOVE
YOU’RE GUIDING ME THROUGH IT ALL
MY HEART TONIGHT FEELS YOUR LOVE
I NEED YOUR STRENGTH MOST OF ALL
(TAKE THIS BURDEN FROM ME)

I HAVE A VOID INSIDE
THAT ONLY YOU CAN FILL
GIVE ME YOUR STRENGTH
SO I CAN CARRY ON

FOR MY FAITH
WILL GIVE ME STRENGTH

9. Clouded Minds

YOU STAND FOR NOTHING, AND YOUR THOUGHTS ARE BLIND,
IGNORANT SPEECH AND A CLOUDED MIND

I WILL NOT COMPROMISE, THE BELIEFS I STAND BEHIND.

REGAIN YOUR SENSES; OPEN YOUR MIND,
IGNORANCE PLAGUES, OUR SHALLOW KIND

IF FREEDOM'S FOUND IN TRUTH, THEN YOU'RE BOUND TO A LIE,
THESE ABSOLUTES CANNOT BE DENIED

BOUND TO A LIE

THERE IS NO SIGHT WITH EYES SOWN SHUT,
OUR MINDS REMAIN STUCK IN THIS RUT.

REGAIN YOUR SENSES; OPEN YOUR MIND,
IGNORANCE PLAGUES OUR SHALLOW KIND.

PULL OUT THE STITCHES, OPEN YOUR EYES,
REGAIN YOUR SENSES, SEE THROUGH THE LIES.

10. The Message

EYES OPENED, I CAN FINALLY SEE,
HOW MUCH YOU'VE DONE FOR ME,
RESISTANT AND STANDING STILL,
I COULDN'T SEE YOUR WILL.

I PUSHED AWAY YOUR GRACE, NOW I'VE FOUND MY PLACE.

CHAINS BROKEN BY YOUR GRACE,
OUR HEARTS SEEK YOUR FACE,
SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING MORE,
SEARCHING TO BE RESTORED...

OVERWHELMING LOVE, I AM NOW COMPLETE

CHAINS BROKEN BY YOUR GRACE,
OUR HEARTS SEEK YOUR FACE,
SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING MORE,
SEARCHING TO BE RESTORED...
