No pulse, head down
Lost hope, lost out
Where is my resolve in this?
What problems can be solved in this?
We spoke so much
We broke, we touched
Now it’s just a pool of blood
As I brace myself for the flood
It’s like the unrelenting sorrow that reminds us of the joy
Like the fire that makes us long for home before it was destroyed
Like the dad who sees our shadows and in love won’t spare the rod
It’s like waking up into a bad dream with a good God
Stairwell, coffee
Brother brought me
From the threat of endless grief
As love surprised my unbelief
Said, “Grieve now, keep on
Cling now, He’s strong”
Pulled me to the piercing light
A living hope through painful night
Just like the unrelenting sorrow that reminds us of the joy
Like the fire that makes us long for home before it was destroyed
Like the road we run while weeping when no road we run’s untrod
It’s like waking up into a bad dream with a good God
It's like waking up into a bad dream with a good God
And I will praise whether You give or take away
You give and take away
And Jacksonville’s not as dark as it was yesterday
"Hold on, you'll be okay"
We’ll be okay

Catchy melodies, masterfully crafted instrumentation, and thought provoking lyrics. A big step up from the last album, and I really love that one. Highly recommend for all your mathy pop rock needs. Lauren Elise
