I Went Over the Edge of the World

Oh the hymns of angels
Suffer over the stench
Of the twenty-first century
Nothing is black or white
Or devoid of industry

The face of monotony
The litany of pop culture
I face the microphone and fumble in
My pockets for a change

A break from the deranged world of
Plotting out the death of art
And I went over the edge of the world
And I felt the sting of all its words

I sang the song of elves and birds
I saw you in my rearview shades
And drank from pools of nighttime cafes

I stopped over just to finish up
I turned the knobs and called your bluff
I went over the edge of the world
I face the microphone and fumble in

My pockets for a change
A break from the deranged world of
Plotting of the death of art

[Bonus song (You Are The One)]

I ran into your arms
Like Moses parted water
I ran into your arms
Like an angel to the father
I ran into your arms
Like a soul that has departed
And you rescued me

I fell down like the stars
You pick me up so tenderly
And I fell down like the stars
My wings made of clay
And I fell down like the stars
You hold me up so I can see
And you rescued me, oh yes

You, You are the One
You are the One, the only One
'Cause You are
You, You are the One
You are the One, You are my God

I stumble like a blind man
Destined to this earth I stray
I stumble like a blind man
No redemption
I stumble like a blind man
With eyes blacked out and a mouth of sand
And you rescued me, oh come on

You, You are the One
You are the One, You are my God
'Cause You are
You, You are the One
You are the One, the only One
'Cause You are

You are the sky that holds the rain
You are my great escape
You are the drugs that kill the pain
You are everything, the teacher

I stand before your altar
Falling strain of Abram's son
I stand before your altar
Like a lamb led to the slaughter

You, You are the One
You are the One, the only One
'Cause You are
You, You are the One
You are the One, the only One
And You are
You, You are the One
You are the One, You are my God
And you are
You, You are the One
You are the One, the only One
'Cause You are

You wanna call me when I'm wondering with doubt
You wanna call and tell me everything's alright
I know it's you and you see everything in me
I know it's you, it's you

You are the sky that holds the rain
You are my great escape
You are the drugs that kill my pain
You are everything, the teacher

You are the sky that holds the rain
You are my great escape
You are the drugs that kill the pain

Just take it away
Just take it away from me
Just take it away
