HUNDREDTH LYRICS

1. Catalysts


[feat. Matthew Hasting of Mychildren Mybride]

when will we surrender.
when will we strive for what is good and not for what man has created.
when will we no longer trample the poor.
ignore the stomachs of the starving.
renew the hearts of the hopeless and the strength of the helpless.
those who can't stand on their own two feet.
those who can't stand on their own two feet.
we gotta change what means the most to us.
when will we look to the hurting before we bandage our own wounds.
we say we are martyrs, but we'd only die for ourselves.
we gotta mend the wounds of the desperate.
we have the power to change circumstance.
we have the power.
we have the power to change.
let us rise above the storm.
rise above the storm.
set sail into the sea.
set sail into the sea.
into the sea.
when we pass through waters, we will not sink.
when we walk through fire, we will not be set ablaze.
we will not sink.
we will not be set ablaze.
instead we sink into your grace.
a furnace of your mercy.
because you chose the despised and lowly.
you choose the despised and lowly.
i am despised.
i am lowly.
we will be the catalysts to reach out to the hurting.
we will embrace those who have been abandoned.
we will be catalysts.
we will embrace those who have been abandoned.


2. Willows


[feat. Ian Fike of It Prevails]

why am i wasting my time pleasing people around me? i'm sick of waiting around for nothing. why am i wasting my time? i will not build my legacy on earth. my legacy will not be of this world. i will not build my legacy on earth. my legacy will be too large for this soil. my whole life i've been compared to people around me. expectations on my shoulder and people to please. i will no longer sway with the willows. i will stand strong on my own. when everyone lets me down. i will stand strong alone. i will stand strong alone. and when the winds hurl, i will not move. i'm destined for greatness. i'll see it through. we will see this through.


3. Betrayer


he walks the stairs and stands at the door. bottle in his right. fist in his left clenched tight.he's already trampled over his wife. the beginning of his family's demise.as he stares into his little girl's eyes. his little girl's green eyes. and to her surprise he actually came home tonight. but he's still not acting right. he knows better, but he's never experienced it.it's a night much like when he was young. mama's on the floor again yelling "i love you's" at the man standing above her. who can only respond with violence. he notices the similarities and begins to scream off the balcony "i will never be like you. i will always despise you. betrayer, where is your head. betrayer, where is your heart. betrayer, i will never be like you. betrayer, i will always despise you." he's still outside screaming into the wind about his distaste for his former kin. his evil thoughts are pushing him to the edge and now he's flirting with that ledge. those green eyes look at him from behind. she begging him to change his mind. he shows his back to those he loves when he dives headfirst into the earth. he buries his head, hiding it from the world. then sceams his little girl. "i will always despise you. betrayer, where is your head. betrayer, where is your heart. betrayer, i will never be like you. betrayer, i will always despise you."


4. Passion


looking with new sight to see it all. a void with the cruelest intentions. why aren't we taking what is ours? hours of time and devotion. time is of the essence. let us hold it close. Its time to go back to places where we found ourselves, alive and full, knowing it was in us all along. it was in me. it was in us all along. i cant scream enough to hold your attention. betrayed. how many more will fall to the false image that you portray. open your heart. because at the end of the day, Your ardent love is will keep us safe from falling away.


5. Caving


my life leaks away groan by groan. my years are fading in sighs.i am growing weary.i am growing weary. they want to blot me from their memory. forget me like a corpse in a grave. throw me out with the scraps. behind doors they plot to ruin me. and i'll be honest with you, it's caving in on me. i been breaking through walls to get free. neck deep in this sinking sand. i will no longer run but my trust will remain in everlasting. your hands hold my days. embarrass the wicked. stand them up. leave them shaking their heads. as they drift down to hell. gag the loudmouthed liars who heckle me, your follower. slam the door on those oily, mocking faces. silence the venom of gossip. i cannot go it alone. the world is caving in on me.


6. Desolate


[feat. Jonathan Vigil of The Ghost Inside]

what have i gained by giving the world my everything. it's never been such a struggle to regress to what i was yesterday. but today, i seem so far away. i'm waiting on the world to sing. the song i've been singing. i'm waiting on the world to sink. the way i've been sinking. i've given too much away over these past few years and this is ending today. there's pain in my eyes like i've never known. i have fallen short. do you still see me as beautiful? carry me home. lighten my stagger. my conscience is weak. i'm begging for reparation. i am deficient of hope. refine me with fire. refine me with fire, oh God. refine me with fire. there's pain in my eyes, like i've never known. i've fallen short. do you still see me as beautiful? i'll never find my place on Earth. but i refuse to fade away.


7. Fade


[Instrumental]



8. Sinking


it's so hard to make an effort to keep my surroundings in line. when sometimes, i can't do it for myself. i confess, i'm not the man i proclaim. my feet are sinking into the mire beneath me. i can't help but notice the endless battle for air while being swept by the tides of complacency. my knowledge is accountability. and i have to do something. blinded by the plank in my eye. i cannot guide anyone. i have to do something. this lonely vessel is surely sinking. i'm surely sinking. take me, if it means they die to themselves. only to raise up their new lives. stop me in my tracks if it will shake them. stop me. we are nothing without each other.


9. Greater


every breath i take recalls the wretch i once was. the wretch i remain. fueled by hatred, by greed. the inability to love a world that lets me down. my misanthropy eats me alive. my face in the dirt. my head staring down. a miserable existence, a life fueled by hate. now my face to the world,steadfast. my life once miserable is now immeasurable. what can i do with a heart full of hate besides dig places to rest for those i love. besides make beds in the depths for those given up. my tattered soul needs mending and i'm done searching. no greater Love than this. no greater Love. no other Love.


10. Rise


You are my everything.
You are my everything.


11. Brighter


the night is darkest just before dawn, so we search for brighter days. trudging fields of deceit. this will be the day of amelioration. if we are granted a clear sky. where we can look up and admire all that you are without a storm in the way. there's been so many storms as of late. i know nothing but rain. dry up our eyes. dry up our lives. dry up the rain. the storm is inside me. with so many storms around me, it's no surprise that when i see the sun i begin to squint my eyes. i can't handle it all at once, so i let it in slowly. and bask in my saving grace. (i need Your sun to dry up the rain.)


12. Sun


the sun rises and the sun sets and hurries back to where it rises. wind to the south, and wind to the north. ever returning on its course. all streams flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full the streams return again without an ounce of toil. what has been, will be again there is nothing new under the sun. lest the adversary misunderstand our hand. lest the adversary misunderstand and say our hand has triumphed. what has been will be again. nothing new under the sun. what has been, will be again. to exalt flesh. what has been done will be done again. to exalt flesh. remove our worthless idols. wreck our pride. remove our worthless idols. wreck my pride. kindle a fire that burns to the realm of death below. devour the earth and its harvests.


13. Shine


we are tattered men. nothing but mirrors of the walls we've built. i've built a high gate and i've invited destruction. bruised and broken by my self-righteousness. i can't go without letting my self down. we cannot win alone. we're coming up dry, our necks flush. we've been staring at our crowns. we've abandoned something up above. i am nothing without the men who walked before me. i'm broken by my own pride. my self-hate. bring a plague to my pride. let me know i am nothing. oh there are no arms as big as Yours. let us unite in the fact that we are nothing. let us float into the dusk, united. we are going to let it shine. let us shine. let me shine. we will shine.
