01. Endeavor For Purpose - Lyrics:

Weighted down, burning out
Looking past everything to see
This is on my conscience when facing my elimination

Decline - this is decline we all have to meet
Staring - staring past everything to finally see
Daylight - daylight, I'm finally living
Downfall - this is the downfall
That I had to heed

Weighted down, wearing thin
Looking past everything to see
This is on my conscience when facing my elimination

Venture fourth with direction
In pursuit with determination
This is my endeavor for purpose

What am I here for?

What am I here for?

This is decline we all have to meet
Staring past everything to finally see
Daylight, I'm finally living
This is the downfall
That I had to heed
Closed my eyes, hands to the sky

What are we here for?

What are we here for?
What are we here for?
What are we here for?

02. Hope Era - Lyrics:

Onward to an era of hope
Cease the disbelief, drop this yolk of despair
There is meaning in these trials
We have grown with one another
Bring back the light

Your heart is meant for something great
I wont stand by and watch you fall

To the deep, now only to see you waist deep in grey
Not all is well
Hope is and will always be here for you

I will stand with you, by you always in love
And as promised, this is will be our world

In these eyes you are a meaningful campaign
Strong willed servant, pick yourself up

I will stand with you, by you always in love
And as promised, this is will be our world

Struggle is what makes us human
Failure solidifies our need for a savior

Struggle is what makes us human
Failure justifies our need for a savior

Onward to an era of hope
Cease the disbelief, bring back the light.


03. Desolation - Instrumental [♫]

04. Atonement - Lyrics:

In this life, I am a prisoner to my selfish ways
Desires of the flesh waging a war
Two masters fighting for the throne, of my heart

Oh God when you look at me, do you feel I'm being honest?
Or am I just a coward, giving in to all that is offered?

Rescue me, what a wretched man I am
Pull me from this body, break the chains and set me free
From this place of desolation, with a hand of redemption
Pull me up and pull me out

Save me from myself

Oh God when you look at me, do you feel I'm being honest?
Or am I just a coward, giving in to all that is offered?

This is where I end and grace begins
This is where I end and you begin

Atonement!

05. Surface - Lyrics:
[Featuring: Karl Schubach]

Oceans surround me, I've surrendered all
Please take me under, I'm welcoming the fall
Flowing through motions, saying I'm awake
My sense of security, was my own selfish trait

I dream I'm floating on the surface of my life
Passed are these days and upheld is my strife
I dream I'm floating on the surface

A proven strength, building Inside of us
A proven strength, a heart-filled sense of trust
A proven strength, unfathomable power
A proven strength, calvary in my needed hour

My harbor of fear, decayed with lies
Gladly washed away, our distress fully capsized
A glimpse of perfection, flooding over me
Your endless mercy, deeper than any sea

I dream I'm floating on the surface of my life
Passed are these days and upheld is my strife
I dream I'm floating on the surface

A proven strength, building Inside of us
A proven strength, a heart-filled sense of trust
A proven strength, unfathomable power
A proven strength, calvary in my needed hour.

06. Not Fallen - Lyrics:

Awakened are my thoughts
Alive are my eyes again
I'm hanging, not fallen
Feelings indescribable
I will scream your name again
I'm longing for nothing more
Nothing more than a light to guide my way

I witnessed with blind eyes

The grey sky inspires color
The blank page generates creativity
As the awakening brings hope to us all
I'm holding nothing back, we'll shatter boundaries for which they set
I've finally come to the realization for myself
Of those, those three words I will never hear you say

You have failed
You have failed
You have failed
You have failed

My path is set with a hand to to hold
I'm ready to live again
I'm ready to live again
Like a child running to open arms
I'm singing to you, I will scream your name again
I'm taking my steps, with a light to guide to my way
I'm ready to live again
I'm ready to live again
Like a child running to open arms
I'm singing to you, I will scream your name name again.

07. My Path Is Set - Instrumental [♫]

08. Unseen - Lyrics:

In the quiet and the still you will hear the sound
What will you choose, will it be a moral life now?
Follow the straight and narrow, navigate to truth
Dweel in your amorality, always in search of proof

With your eyes open can you see everything?
This is not what you will expect it to be
With your eyes open do you see everything?
The good and the bad, everything in between

Some chose to turn a blind eye on the evil that consumes everything inside
I choose to reach out and make a change
Even If It's the most minimal of ways

With your eyes open can you see everything?
This is not what you expected it to be
With your eyes open can you see everything?
The only thing keeping me alive is the unseen.

09. Surrender - Instrumental [♫]

10. Immaculate Design - Lyrics:

When It's all coming to an end
You start to think where did this begin?
At times I have said the worst
But you loved me, you saw my worth
Did you know everyrhing that I would say?
Would you feel everything that I would do?
You saw all of me, even before I began
My whole detailed plan was built with your hands

You knew that I would love?
You knew that I would fall?

I did not ask for the life that I was given
It was still given nonetheless
I did not ask for the life that I was given
With it I did my best

You saw success and trial
Felt the pain, seeing through my denial
You knew I would walk a new man
You knew me
You saw my lifetime.
