Flyleaf – This Close

I had a dream that we were dead
But we pretended we still lived
With no regrets, we never bled
And we took everything life could give
And came up broken, empty handed in the end

In the hearts of the blind
Something you’ll never find
Is a vision of light
With the voice of the dead, I’m screaming

I dont know who I am anymore
Not once in life have I been real
But I’ve never felt this close before
I’ve been looking in your window
I’ve been Read more…

Flyleaf – White Balloons

I’m holding onto white balloons
Up against a sky of doom
Tell me you see them
‘Cause what’s inside of me is invisible to most
Even in clear view
I’m sending out a signal to the possibility of you
‘Cause right at this moment
I know you’re connected to a part of me that I don’t even know myself

The changes in me
Are likely to be like the weather
Stormy and clear strength into fear bound together

But I’ll break my silence
If I believed that you Read more…

Flyleaf – Dead Space

[Verse 1]
We have a situation here
It’s clear, it’s not disappearing
We keep fucking what is pure
No cure, and it keeps happening
Over and over again
Over and over again
We have a situation here
It’s clear, it’s here

[Chorus]
Dead space
The only thing that’s left to fear is
To late to ever start again
They rape us over and over and over and over
But I’m still alive
But I’m still alive in this dead space

[Verse 2]
They’re not gonna let us out of here
The fear is taking Read more…

Flyleaf – Missing

I saw the queen
Swam out below her star on sea beneath
Though I lifted up my hands to her
She never lifted me

Oh, something’s missing in me
I felt it deep within me
As lovers left me to bleed alone

Found something sweet
On the island with the daughters of eve
But through thick and thin they’ve gone away
And only left their grief

Oh, something’s missing in me
I felt it deep within me
As lovers left me to bleed alone

Something’s missing in me
I felt it Read more…

Flyleaf – The Kind

Its like being in love
You rob your own mind
And defile your bed
You ignore the fate
Of the players who
Both end up dead

And you pretend for us
And you pretend for them
This fairy tale will make them jealous of you

But its not the kind
The kind you talked about
And its just the kind that rips the clothing off your mind

She is feeding you
And you lie with her
And for the first time your right arm becomes useful
As you sin with it
You Read more…

Flyleaf – Beautiful Bride

Unified diversity
Functioning as one body
Every part encouraged by the other
No one independent of another
You’re irreplaceable, indispensable
You’re incredible
You’re incredible

[Chorus]
Beautiful bride
Body of Christ
One flesh abiding
Strong and unifying
Fighting ends in forgiveness
Unite and fight all division
Beautiful bride

Strengthen your arms now
Train your fingers for battle
Urgency’s here now
Train your fingers for battle
Fighting this violence
With your feet wrapped in peace
Sad tears and silence
Now screams of joy
Victory

[Chorus x2]

We’re not gonna fall and forget
How far You went to pick us up
If one part’s hurt the Read more…
