We Came As Romans

My body shivers at the thought of getting up. My heart is starting to accept that I am giving up No strength left. Is it over yet? Am I thinking with my heart or with my head? Through distance, you remind me that Don't let me, don't let me, don't let

I've led a horse to water But he turned and ran as soon as I turned my back It seems as if the way here Wore worse on me than it did on him I feel like my words have only given way To brief intentions but no intent for action I've waited, I've asked,

I always knew I'd never reach perfection, and if I ever did then I wasn't trying hard enough. Because there is always something more to reach for. And every end is just the start to something else. I think that if we ever stopped seeking out what it

Yeah Sometimes I feel so wrong Like I'm being held down I feel my heart like a rock, it's sinking These days can get so dark Like there... in the sky But I can rise above I can find my way I can run I can change all the answers Or what I'll hope they

The devil on my shoulder tells me he's proud of me That it takes a real man to look out for himself and no one else I don't want to believe that But sometimes it's easier to just stay silent I wish I knew how to speak out I never had a problem with w

Eight years ago I committed a sin And there were many more that followed with Some that changed my mind Some that broke me down But all of them made me who I am now All of them made me who I am now All of them made me who I am now I lived in the blis

Mindless. This mindless flesh that devours, it keeps me bound at the bottom. And to live in this flesh will keep me bound by myself. Hollowed out your heart to live this way. Was it that hard to let love fade? Lashing out, yet reserved. The mindless

I've been sleeping on stones My mistakes are easier made a second time And I can't move on since I've closed my eyes Since I've closed my eyes I've cut off myself from everybody else To move on is to grow I know the way to go Yet I can't bring myself

The intent. I intend. The intentions of one will guide. I strive to speak what I have learned and learn from those I see. To step out of this life is my ambition. To speak out and show you what I have seen. I am one voice amidst the shouts of many. I

This is a poison everyone knows It runs through my rivers. Created and cured by the same, and it will flow. Tear through these holds, and rip away my heart. With an effort so constrained, this is the venom in my veins. This is the venom in my veins,

I am so far away And it's more than I can take I haven't heard your voice in days I haven't heard your voice in days What is the measure of a man? Is it wading through the worst? Or is the measure of a man Admitting when he is defeated? But I am not

Bad habits are ghosts haunting me A thought that never leaves From when I wake until I sleep To seek heaven in my dreams Where I feel I can finally breathe Forget everything Away from my reality Because as long as I stay here I won't face my fears Ri

Am I not understanding this now? This world I've held so close to my heart Is all against me now And it wears, and it breaks, And it brings me down, so low, down so low It wears me down, down to my bones Straight through my skin It wears me down, dow

Try to destroy me I am a soldier I am a riot I am the new age I am the liar I am an idea I am steadfast I am present, future and past! Like a forest burning Time is running out And the tides keep turning I am here, I am now Like a wave that's breakin

I won't fade away Like a flame burnt out You're a shadow of yourself A memory blacked out The bridge has been burned down Less is learned in time When you fade to the background Will you take my hand? We will walk this road We can change the map I wo

Show me your hands, Let me wash them clean. Show me your hands, Let me wash them clean. We all need this to be renewed, After time and wear. We're broken statues. Vines intertwined around your insides. Hold you down. You beg for restoration. Your bes

I am the man in the mirror. My reflection, I aspire to be. In your reflection what do you see? False fault or a masterpiece? But a masterpiece starts with a single stroke and empires start in an open field. (I am the man in the mirror) But a masterpi

Dreams We Came As Romans This is my deepest dream. This is how I show you my love. (My love, my love) This is him speaking to me. This is me speaking to you. (My love, my love) This is him speaking through me to you. This is him speaking through me t

All the lies don't hold me, but they're sinking in my skin, coursing through my veins And the truth eludes me, losing sight of it again Save me from myself Close my eyes, see my life Have I lost my way? I hope this is the last time Am I here to stay?

You are so far away* And it strains on me to hear your voice everyday. You never know what you have until you're gone, So when it's over and I'm on way my back home, It feels like days before I'm next to you again. This is how we love. You're so far
