Album: Great Lengths
Verse:
It never ends the screams that echo inside me
Where can I find some rest or peace of mind?
I'm so alone and I'm falling to my knees
Just one more day and I don't think I'll survive
My heart is tiring from carrying this heavy load
It's just so sickening the way I let myself go
I crave release and a chance to seal my fate
But I've caused so much pain is it too late?
Chorus:
It goes on and on it never ends
I climb out but then I fall back down again
The gears keep turning and I'm starting to fade
We're in the fight of our lives, this vicious cycle must break
Verse 2:
Where does it end? I'm sick of running in circles
I'm fighting hard to keep my demons at bay
Lost in the war and this fear is internal
No one can see the pain that's on my face
This aggravation is so constant and so cruel
I've got the key inside but still I let it rule
All my attempts at breaking free have been in vain
And my confidence is broken and I'm losing strength
Bridge:
I hear a voice (It's calling to me)
And it's calling to me
And it offers a choice (offers a choice)
To live or die
This song is about sin and battle that sin presents. Romans 6:23 tells us that the wages of sin is death and this song is about that struggle of trying to find life in world that is full of temptations. So many times, myself included, we get caught in a "Vicious Cycle" of sin and repentance and then back to sin. It turns in to quite a roller coaster ride and can sometimes leave us dealing with guilt and shame. The bridge piece is that beautiful whisper of the Holy Spirit in us and how we respond is up to us.
