1.
you shook me 
 your love racing to my bones 
 with no sound 
 but the heart beat in my chest 
 with one breath. you shook me from my skin with one breath you made me tremble 
 for fear of you 
 for love of you in awe of you from my skin to my blood to my bones you shook all of me
2.
we were so in love, so in love how could perfect not be enough? doubt was never known, never known how could perfect not stand alone? we had nothing, we had it all we wore nothing, we had it all we felt no pain, we stood in awe strong as oak trees, certain and tall the highest leaves, the deepest fall
3.
Flows From 03:41
the blood is dirty the source it flows from but i can't change that trembling arms reach i'd break my back for this i know.
4.
Spill 05:18
you waited for me you waited for me i give myself i give myself i give myself to you spill my soul into your hands now
5.
The Glow 02:41
your eyes swallowed me whole selfishness has taken it's toll on me light pierces my sides letting me know how very small i am you you're in this too you are you are doing this too sparks fly like the snow specks fall around the glow of the lamp light that light pierces my sides letting me know i can be clean again
6.
i was raised by wolves, by beasts there were four, they took turns gnawing at my thoughts, they riled and raged i cannot walk away from this it's so hard i cannot walk away they took it all, they stole it all away before i even knew it breathed i want it back, i want it all back God restore your life to me i cannot walk away from this it's so hard i cannot walk away i want it back, i want it all back
7.
again i fall to the depths the depths of my sin you beg me to choose but i won't give in no, i can't stand up straight knowing i'm bent no, i can't bear to start knowing the end your love is driving me on all i have has been spilt so take what you can now i see you so clear i open my hand food, the richest of food don't feed me like you your love is driving me on
8.
you and me gently steered by the breeze shaded by the faded old cottonwood trees when i fell in a dream that is hard to retell i opened my eyes and said no i walked through the red woods wandering, searching for the place where you stood when i saw the roots that persuaded my fall were twisted and twined around you wake up all you soundless sleepers with a gentle breeze you will be new may your eyes forever see the glory that in printed in your souls
9.
how long will you turn your face away? how long, how long? if i don't feel you, will i still be okay? how long, how long? God, won't you carry us through? won't you carry us through? won't you carry us through? how long will you turn? how long, how long? God, won't you carry us through? won't you carry us through? won't you carry us through? Jesus, all we have is you all we have is you all we have is you
