Service to the rest of you
Inspiring to give
Message from the Higher Kingdom
Calling me to live
Will you notice? Do you notice?
Can you still see me?
Or am I hidden in the Light of Invisibility?
Believe in miracles, Daughters and Sons
They will come sooner through us
Talk to your Church 'cuz it's not a building
It's not a building
Go find your Sword; you won't find it in a sheath
You'll find it on a shelf
Ones or twos? Well, I could use
A Marriage or a Key
No more noose or self-abuse
Just let me divorce me
Demons in here playing tag, but
They're just way too slow
'Cuz I am hidden in a fire that they will never know
Service to the rest of you
Inspiring to give
Service to the rest of you
Inspiring to live

Knives don't mean much 'till you sweep them across your own skin
When homes don't bring comfort, the last thing to care for is sin
But it's what we're in
You see your own name
Written on a grave
And you want to carve it
What will it take to make you change?
Written on a grave
You're drawing the casket
What can I do to make you feel loved?
Blood flow; it gets the blood flowing, don't it?
Heart out; crushing those hearts will be fun, won't it?!
Friend
Is this death the answer?
Is this death the answer? No.
His death was the Answer
Live.
Live!

Better run faster, 'cuz they're gonna catch you
Better run faster, 'cuz they're gonna kill you
Better run faster, Zayza
Better remember, 'cuz they'll show no mercy
Better remember, 'cuz they'll show no mercy
Better remember, Zayza
You are not what you thought
Maybe next time you'll think twice before you...
Maybe next time you'll think twice before...
Maybe next time you will think twice
Maybe next time there won't be a next time
Maybe next time there won't be a next...
Maybe next time there won't be a Zayza
You are not what you thought (I'm sorry, sweetheart)
You are not...
You are not what you thought (I'm sorry sweetheart)
You are not what you thought
And who can save you now?
Who can save you now?
Who can save you now?
Zayza, who can save you now?
He will save you now

Young girl, why do you fear?
Your betrothed won't cast the stones on you
He's just and caring
Dear One, rejoice evermore!
For you are favored by the Creator!
In you is the Savior
And I believe something
Something true to my soul
The world in darkness, resides
The Son of God shall make the darkness hide
Sinner and failure, look up!
The Chosen One has come to restore us!
For we can't save ourselves
And I (And I) believe something
Something true to my soul
And I (And I) sing of something
Something pure: the Birth of Hope
In Him is Life
The Life is Light
It overcomes the dark, always
In Him is Life
The Life is Light
It overcomes the dark
