Lights Go Down 04:27
lyrics

Nothing good happens when the lights go down That's when the devil comes to win Nothing good happens when the lights go down That's when the shadows swim in sin Nothing good happens when the lights go down That's why your mama called ya in Nothing good happens when the lights go down The lights are always on in heaven Mmm It's always harder when the lights go down That's when the lines are razor thin It's always harder when the lights go down There ain't no Jesus where you been There ain't no Jesus where you been You think it's what you want But it ain't what you want You think it's what you want You think it's what you want But it ain't what you want Nothing good happens when the lights go down No, no, no, no It's always harder when the lights go down Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah There ain't no Jesus where you been There ain't no Jesus where you been There ain't no Jesus where you been There ain't no Jesus where you been

Real Love 04:34
lyrics

Without romance, love is drudgery Without those rings, it’s a mockery When has love ever been free Only real love could bind me Real, real love Got to make up your mind, be the man that she needs Buy her that ring, get down on one knee Stand by your good man, they don’t grow on trees Kiss him goodnight, cause that’s what he needs Real, real love Young love blisters and burns Hungers and yearns Hurts till it learns that Real love works and it earns Trusts and discerns Rules out u-turns Real, real love Love’s like a wine Fermenting slow Love walks the line It gives up control Some call it cage But they’ll never know Love’s like a wine Fermenting slow Patient and kind Never lets go Real, real love

Lift You Up 04:44
lyrics

In the dark of night when the fear is fed When the lies run wild in your weary head I have gone before you, I will stand instead I’m the way, the truth and the light up ahead And I can lift you up, lift you up And I can lift you up, lift you up When your soul is starved, I’m the living bread When your tongue is parched, I’m the fountainhead When you’re robbed of breath cause the cancer spread And the schemes of man cannot touch that dread And I will lift you up, will lift you up And I will lift you up, will lift you up And I will lift you up, will lift you up And it’s all made new in the crimson red And the rumor is true, of the risen dead And if grace so boundless could be laid outspread And I will lift you up, will lift you up Oh I will lift you up, will lift you up And I will lift you up, will lift you up, will lift you up And I will lift you up, will lift you up

How it Goes 03:55
lyrics
buy track
Gin and cigarettes, light up the night life A crowd of marionettes dance in a cage We scratch at pure lust, like feral finites Never trust or really feel or turn the page That’s how it goes, how it goes, how it goes Everybody really knows, really knows, really knows It’s spiraling way out of control We try to hide it but it shows To spend love freely, profits the spirit To use it up so selfishly dries up the soul From the castle down to the poor man Loves the heart beat, loves the center, loves the goal That’s how it goes, how it goes, how it goes Everybody really knows, really knows, really knows It’s spiraling way out of control We try to hide it but it shows Temptation’s teeth are sharp With a mouth of foam Yeah it’s hard down here because we are not yet home We’re all wanderers under a starry dome Our eyes betray us here but our soul knows where to go We’re Geppetto’s child, we are not yet whole We’re all prodigals, call me Pinocchio There’s a place ahead, no map or chart can show We light up the dark, so all the world can know That’s how it goes, how it goes, how it goes Everybody really knows, really knows, really knows It’s spiraling way out of control We try to hide it but it shows Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Woah-oh

Hold Me Down 03:55
lyrics
buy track
You were the accuser in the garden The tongue twister, the charlatan You were the tempter in that desert Get behind me with that bargain Ain’t gonna hold me down Ain’t gonna hold me down The deciever of the angels Jealousy of His love for mortals You were the envy that killed Abel Judas round that table, oh Ain’t gonna hold me down Ain’t gonna hold me down I’m gonna rise I’m gonna rise Rising up, rising up, rising up I’m gonna rise You’re the seeker, the destroyer In the darkness, you’re the prowler You’re the whisper that accuses The selfishness that uses Ain’t gonna hold me down, no no Ain’t gonna hold me down Our soul adversary Author of all this doubt that we carry You’re the endless liar Empty grave stripped you of your power Ain’t gonna hold me down Ain’t gonna hold me down I’m gonna rise I’m gonna rise Rising up, rising up, rising up I’m gonna rise I see you prowling like a roaring lion Stronger is in me and so I am defiant We are an army and we’re testifying Rising up, rising up, rising up I’m gonna rise I’m gonna rise Rising up, rising up, rising up I’m gonna rise
