Worlds Apart |
| I am the only one to blame for this |
| Somehow it all ends up the same |
| Soaring on the wings of selfish pride |
| I flew too high |
| And like Icarus, I collide |
| With a world I try so hard to leave behind |
| To rid myself of all but love |
| To give and die |
| To turn away and not become |
| Another nail to pierce the skin of one who loves |
| More deeply than the oceans |
| More abundant than the tears |
| Of a world embracing every heartache |
| Can I be the one to sacrifice |
| Or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow |
| (To love you) Take my world apart |
| (To need you) I am on my knees |
| (To love you) Take my world apart |
| (To need you) Broken on my knees |
| Said and done, I stand alone |
| Amongst remains of a life I should not own |
| It takes all I am to believe |
| In the mercy that covers me |
| Did you really have to die for me |
| All I am for all you are |
| Because what I need and what I believe, are worlds apart |
| I look beyond the empty cross |
| Forgetting what my life has cost |
| And wipe away the crimson stains |
| And dull the nails that still remain |
| More and more I need you now |
| I owe you more each passing hour |
| Battles between grace and pride |
| I gave up not so long ago |
| So steal my heart and take the pain |
| And wash the feet and cleanse my pride |
| Take the selfish, take the weak |
| And all the things I cannot hide |
| Take the beauty, take my tears |
| My sin-soaked heart, make it yours |
| Take my world all apart |
| Take it now, take it now |
| And serve the ones that I despise |
| Speak the words I can’t deny |
| Watch the world I used to love |
| Fall to dust and blow away |
| I look beyond the empty cross |
| Forgetting what my life has cost |
| Wipe away the crimson stains |
| And dull the nails that still remain |
| Take my beauty, take my tears |
| My sin-soaked heart, make it yours |
| And all the things I cannot hide |
| Take the beauty, take my tears |
| Take my world apart, take my world apart |
| I pray, I pray, I pray |
| Take my world apart |
| Halleluia (repeated) |
