LISTEN

PRELUDE

DREAMS IN THE DARK

By: Andrew Serr

 

CAN I TELL YOU MY DREAM

IT’S SOMETHING THAT I HEAR

 

A VOICE NEVER TRUTHFUL

I’M BEGINNING TO FEAR

 

WHAT IT SAYS IS CLEVER

WISDOM IN DISGUISE

 

WHAT I’VE KNOWN IT QUESTIONS

AND ALL MY TRUTH DENIED

 

FOREVER IT’S BEEN WAITING

TO COME AND SPEAK WITH ME

 

A DARK VOICE UNWANTED

ASKING ME TO BELIEVE

 

EVEN NOW IT’S SPEAKING

ALL THE THINGS THAT IT SAYS SOUNDS WRONG

BUT ITS WORDS ARE STRONGER THAN MINE

IS THIS REALLY A DREAM

 

LORD I PRAY LIGHT MY WAY FREE ME FROM THIS VOICE

WHEN DARKNESS TRIES TO BLIND MY EYES HELP ME MAKE A CHOICE

 

LISTEN TO ME IT SAYS

FORGET ALL YOU KNOW

AND FOLLOW ME

 

I FEEL IT TAKING OVER

TWISTING TRUTH WITH LIES

 

HIS VOICE IS GETTING LOUDER

DROWNING OUT MY CRIES

 

IT SAYS THAT IT WILL HELP ME

IT SAYS THAT I AM BLIND

 

IF ONLY I WOULD LISTEN

IT WOULD FREE MY MIND

 

LORD I PRAY LIGHT MY WAY FREE ME FROM THIS VOICE

WHEN DARKNESS TRIES TO BLIND MY EYES HELP ME MAKE A CHOICE

 

LISTEN TO ME IT SAYS

FORGET ALL YOU KNOW

AND FOLLOW ME

 

CAN I FIND A PLACE BEHIND THE THOUGHTS IN MY MIND

 

LORD I PRAY LIGHT MY WAY FREE ME FROM THIS VOICE

WHEN DARKNESS TRIES TO BLIND MY EYES HELP ME MAKE A CHOICE

 

I

HAVE

YOUR

PROMISES

GUIDE

ME

TO

SERENITY

THIS

TIME

I

WILL

BE FREE

 

IF I STUMBLE IF I LOSE MY WAY

LIGHT MY PATH AGAIN EACH DAY

 

ARE ALL MY THOUGHTS AN ILLUSION

AM I STUCK IN A DREAM

REALITY WITH NO ENDING

IS NOTHING WHAT IT SEEMS

 

 

BLIND

By: Andrew Serr

 

OPEN MY EYES

EMPTINESS I SEE

 

LOOK INSIDE MY MIND

BLURRY MEMORIES

 

THE TRUTH IS WHAT I FEAR

 

WHAT HAVE I DONE WRONG

HAUNTED BY MY PAST

 

IS DARKNESS TRAPPED INSIDE

 

WHY CAN I NOT SEE

THE TRUTH BEHIND THIS MISERY

 

HOW CAN ALL THIS BE

WHAT’­­S LEFT OF MY MEMORIES

 

I REACH OUT AND FIND

A BOX THAT ONCE WAS MINE

 

THE KEY TO MY PAST

ANSWERS LOST WITH TIME

 

I CANNOT SEE INSIDE

 

CAN YOU HEAR ME

HAUNTED BY MY PAST

 

IS DARKNESS TRAPPED INSIDE

 

WHY CAN I NOT SEE

THE TRUTH BEHIND THIS MISERY

 

PLEASE SET ME FREE

GIVE ME ONE MORE CHANCE TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT

AND SEE WHERE I’VE BEEN BLIND

 

 

SMALL STILL VOICE

By: Andrew Serr

 

I ONCE THOUGHT I KNEW THE WAY

WITHOUT DECEPTION

 

I KEPT LIVING DAY TO DAY

WITH MY OWN PERCEPTIONS

 

IT’S SO EASY TO LOSE YOUR WAY

IF YOU JUST LISTEN TO WHAT OTHERS SAY

 

ALL I WANT IS THE TRUTH OF IT

WHAT’S RIGHT WHAT’S WRONG AND THE REST OF IT

 

SHOW ME ALL THE LIGHT YOU’VE HID IN IT

I WILL WALK THAT LIFE

 

IT’S EASY TO SAY I’M RIGHT

WHEN I’M WRONG I THOUGHT I KNEW

 

DO WE DO WHAT WE’VE BEEN TOLD

WE DON’T ASK WHY

WE ASSUME IT’S TRUE

 

IT’S SO EASY TO LOSE YOUR WAY

IF YOU JUST LISTEN TO WHAT OTHERS SAY

 

ALL I WANT IS THE TRUTH OF IT

WHAT’S RIGHT WHAT’S WRONG AND THE REST OF IT

 

SHOW ME ALL THE LIGHT YOU’VE HID IN IT

AND I WILL WALK THAT LIFE

 

I NEED TO UNDERSTAND

YOUR WAYS YOUR DIVINE PLAN

SO GIVE ME WHAT I NEED TO BELIEVE

 

ALL I WANT IS THE TRUTH OF IT

WHAT’S RIGHT WHAT’S WRONG AND THE REST OF IT

 

SHOW ME ALL THE LIGHT YOU’VE HID IN IT

I WILL WALK THAT LIFE

 

I NEED TO UNDERSTAND

YOUR WAYS YOUR DIVINE PLAN

GIVE ME WHAT I NEED

 

I ONCE THOUGHT I KNEW THE WAY

NOW I KNOW

IT’S NOT WHAT OTHERS SAY

 

I LISTEN FOR A SMALL STILL VOICE

AND I LEARN

HOW TO LIVE EACH DAY

 

IT’S SO EASY TO LOSE YOUR WAY

IF YOU JUST LISTEN TO WHAT OTHERS SAY

 

 

ALL ALONE

By: Andrew Serr

 

LEFT ALONE WITH NO HOME

TORN APART BROKEN HEART

BED OF STONE FROZEN BONES

PAIN SO DEEP HER EYES WEEP

 

SENT TO DIE FEAR IN EYES

BODY BRUISED MIND CONFUSED

WRAPPED IN CLOTH ACHING COUGH

LEFT TO CRY SHE WONDERS WHY

 

ALL ALONE NO PLACE NO HOME

SHE SITS AND SHE WAITS FOR A PATH TO BE SHOWN

 

AT HER END ARMS EXTEND

COLD WET KNIFE ENDING LIFE

SOUL CRIES OUT FATE IN DOUBT

HER LAST TEAR WILL IT END HERE

 

ALL ALONE NO PLACE NO HOME

SHE SITS AND SHE WAITS FOR A PATH TO BE SHOWN

 

ONE DARK NIGHT SHE SAW A BRIGHT LIGHT

SHE LOOKED AND SHE FOUND A MAN CLOTHED IN WHITE

 

WHO ARE YOU WHERE DID YOU COME FROM

HAVE YOU COME TO JUDGE WHAT I’VE DONE

 

NO HE SAID I CAME TO OFFER

YOU A CHANCE TO HAVE A FATHER

 

HOW MUCH HE CARED

WHEN SHE THOUGHT HE WAS NOT THERE

 

ALL ALONE NO PLACE NO HOME

SHE SITS AND SHE WAITS FOR A PATH TO BE SHOWN

 

ONE DARK NIGHT SHE SAW A BRIGHT LIGHT

SHE LOOKED AND SHE FOUND A MAN CLOTHED IN WHITE

 

HOW MUCH HE CARED

WHEN SHE THOUGHT HE WAS NOT THERE

 

 

LAST MEDLEY

By: Andrew Serr

 

WHAT IS THIS MISERY MY DAYS ARE ALL BUT SPENT

A FADING MEMORY IS MY LIFE OF WHICH I REGRET

 

NOW I MUST FACE THE END AND LAY MY HEAD TO SLEEP

I LEAVE THIS EARTH ALONE WHILE A TEAR ROLLS DOWN MY CHEEK

 

WHY IS IT SO HARD TO FACE MY DESTINY

I’VE SPENT MY ENTIRE LIFE WITH ALL OF MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY

 

NOW THAT ITS TOO LATE WHAT MORE COULD I HAVE DONE

I GO IN PEACE NOW FAREWELL TO EVERYONE

 

NOW MY TIME HAS COME I TURN MY GAZE UP HIGH

I CONSIDER ALL THAT I BELIEVE AND REMEMBER WHY 

 

IM READY TO BREATHE MY LAST THERES NOTHING LEFT TO SAY

MY HEART AND SOUL IS READY SO TAKE MY LIFE AND LEAD THE WAY

 

LIFE IS TOO SHORT DON’T LIVE IN THE PAST

REACH OUT YOUR HAND WITH LOVE THAT LASTS

WHEN DEATH FINDS YOUR NUMBER DO NOT DESPAIR

IT’S NEVER TO LATE SO LEARN TO CARE

 

 

THROUGH HIS LIFE

By: Andrew Serr

 

A NEW ENLIGHTENED WORLD

ABANDONING THE HOPE HE LEFT

A GIFT THAT’S FREE

 

CONSTANT ARGUING

IS THERE REALLY MORE THAN DEATH

IS THAT WHAT THEY BELIEVED

 

SOME WOULD CLAIM THAT DEATH IS THE END

NOTHING AFTER THERES NO SOUL

 

DARKNESS FILLED THE EARTH

NOONE COULD ESCAPE THEIR FATE

ETERNITY IN DOUBT

 

IT WAS PROPHESIED  

EVIL HEARTS WOULD TAKE CONTROL

AND BRING THE END

 

IN THE FACE OF DEATH

WHO COULD COME AND BREAK THEIR CHAINS

AND FREE THEIR SOULS

 

IS THERE EVIDENCE

THAT SOMEONE CAME TO CHANGE THEIR FATE

AND BRING NEW LIFE

 

SOME WOULD CLAIM THAT DEATH IS THE END

NOTHING AFTER THERES NO SOUL

 

ONE MAN CAME TO FREE THEM FROM THEIR CHAINS

AND THROUGH HIS LIFE HOPE REMAINS

ONE MAN CAME TO FREE THEM FROM THEIR CHAINS

AND THROUGH HIS LIFE HOPE REMAINS

 

 

I'M STILL HERE

By: Andrew Serr

Dedicated to: Alicia Lay-Eaton and Jacob William Eaton

 

I NEVER THOUGHT THAT IT COULD BE THIS WAY

WHAT I’VE LOST IS THE ONE WHO UNDERSTANDS

AND WHY DO I ALWAYS HAVE TO TURN AROUND

AT JUST ONE THOUGHT OF YOUR HAND RIGHT NEXT TO MINE

 

WHY DOES IT ALWAYS HAVE TO BE SO HARD

TO THINK ABOUT ALL THE MEMORIES WE SHARED

WHAT CAN I DO NOW THAT WE’RE APART

THESE EMOTIONS BRING SHIVERS DOWN MY SPINE

 

WHERE ARE THE PEOPLE NOW

WHO HAVE LOST A LOVER

WHERE ARE THE PEOPLE NOW

WHO HAVE LOST THEIR BEST FRIEND

I’LL BE HERE WATCHING OVER

I’M STILL HERE

 

I REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS WE HAD

EVERYDAY WE LAUGHED AND WE CRIED

I’D NEVER TRADE AWAY THOSE DAYS

‘CAUSE WHAT WAS THEN WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART

 

WHERE ARE THE PEOPLE NOW

WHO HAVE LOST A LOVER

WHERE ARE THE PEOPLE NOW

WHO HAVE LOST THEIR BEST FRIEND

I’LL BE HERE WATCHING OVER

I’M STILL HERE

 

WHERE ARE THE PEOPLE NOW

WHO HAVE LOST A LOVER

WHERE ARE THE PEOPLE NOW

WHO HAVE LOST THEIR BEST FRIEND

I’LL BE HERE WATCHING OVER

I’M STILL HERE

I’M STILL HERE

 

 

THE DICHOTOMY PARADOX

By: Andrew Serr

 

I’VE LOOKED AWAY FOR SO LONG NOW

I’M BLINDED BY THIS LIFE SOMEHOW

ALL AROUND ME I SEE MISERY

WHAT’S THE REASON WHAT’S THE MYSTERY

 

THIS LIFE WILL CHALLENGE THE THINGS THAT WE BELIEVE

CAN WE STAND FOR WHAT’S RIGHT OR THE THOUGHTS THAT WE CONCEIVE

WILL WE RISE UP AND BE A GENERATION WHO DEMANDS OUR MINDS BE FREE

 

THE WORLD AROUND ME IS CHANGING

A MENTAL WAR IS WAGING

THE TRUTH IS HIDDEN TWISTED AND BENT

A FACELESS LEADER WITH DESTRUCTIVE INTENT

 

HELP ME TO RISE AND CHANGE THIS FATE

HELP ME TO FIGHT THIS EVIL LYING IN WAIT

HELP ME TO SEE THROUGH THE LIES AND THE HATE

HELP ME TO CLING TO THE TRUTH BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE

HELP ME TO RECOGNIZE THE MOMENTS THAT CHANGE PEOPLES LIVES

 

HOW MANY STARVING HOW MANY BURN

THE SOUND OF LAUGHTER WITH NO CONCERN

AN EVIL SYSTEM A CAREFUL PLAN

A SECRET HIDDEN LEST WE UNDERSTAND

 

THIS LIFE WILL CHALLENGE THE THINGS THAT WE BELIEVE

CAN WE STAND FOR WHAT’S RIGHT OR THE THOUGHTS THAT WE CONCEIVE

WILL WE RISE UP AND BE A GENERATION WHO DEMANDS OUR MINDS BE FREE

 

I SEE IT CLEARLY THERE’S NO MORE DISGUISE

A TRUE REFLECTION OF THE WORLD’S IN MY EYES

HOW CAN I CHANGE THIS HOW CAN I BEGIN

IT STARTS WITH ME AND MY OWN SIN

 

HELP ME TO RISE AND CHANGE THIS FATE

HELP ME TO FIGHT THIS EVIL LYING IN WAIT

HELP ME TO SEE THROUGH THE LIES AND THE HATE

HELP ME TO CLING TO THE TRUTH BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE

HELP ME TO RECOGNIZE THE MOMENTS THAT CHANGE PEOPLES LIVES

 

THIS WORLD WILL FALL BUT WE WILL RISE

PEACE AND FREEDOM HOPE FOR MANKIND

WE FIGHT FOR THIS RIGHT

DREAMS IN THE DARK

BLIND

SMALL STILL VOICE

ALL ALONE

LAST MEDLEY

THROUGH HIS LIFE

I'M STILL HERE
