sometimes i feel broken
and there are things that i never say to anyone
like sometimes i don't feel rescued
and sometimes i don't believe you love me at all
when i allow myself the fantasy that i might have made you proud
i feel ashamed
i honestly believe with all of my soul that you love the whole world
just maybe not me
it's not that i feel overlooked or that you've done me wrong
maybe at the end of the day, i just don't love myself
when i try to impress you i hate myself
and i could run better if i could stay on track
and every time i turn around, every time you welcome me back
it's hard to love someone so big and be someone so small
and i'm afraid that you're the one who thinks that i don't love you at all
but i do
you rend the veil that hides your face
you speak light into the dark
you've beaten back the hoards of death
you tear their crowns apart
no more aching and crying
you lift the burden of my shame
no more breaking and dying
you remember my name
(i can see it coming:)
the ill and the affirmed leave their sickness behind
all disease is crushed in defeat
the shadows shrinking back, disappear in the light
the paralyzed rise to their feet
the broken and oppressed overflow with joy
the abused become royalty
darkness and despair are banished for good
and death can find no loyalty
the tormented see peace in the fading night
and all the brokenhearted feel their hearts begin to mend
the lowercase gods are all crushed by the King
the hungry and the destitute will never go without again
war and poverty are vanquished
no pain, no suffering, no dismay
evil, death and all their friends are forever washed away
our faith in you will cry out for the day
our hope in you will not be misplaced
for now we see through a fogged piece of glass
but soon we will see face to face
you rend the veil that hides your face
you speak light into the dark
you've beaten down the hoards of death
you've torn their crowns apart
come Lord, come! let the last be first
wipe every tear from the face of the earth
put all wrongs to right
make everything new
the cancer of death is defeated by you
The lyrics YOU WILL DIE IN A PRISON of SHOWBREAD is also present in the album Cancer (2012)
Showbread è una rock band cristiana americana originaria di Guyton, Georgia. Formatasi nel 1997, il gruppo ha subito numerose modifiche nella formazione nel corso degli anni, pur mantenendo i due membri fondatori, Josh Dies e Patrick Porter. Dies è il principale compositore e direttore creativo di Showbread, garantendo una coerenza stilistica nonostante le variazioni della band. Fino al 2007, la band ha avuto due cantanti principali, tra cui Ivory Mobley. Josh Dies è anche autore dei romanzi "The Spinal Cord Perception", "The Insect" e "Nevada". Showbread ha attirato l'attenzione dei media nel 2006 quando un video fan per il brano "Dead By Dawn" è stato pubblicato su YouTube. Il video, visto dalla band e condiviso sul loro sito web, ha scatenato controversie riguardo ai temi lirici di Showbread. Secondo l'ex chitarrista Matt Davis, il nome del gruppo deriva da "un riferimento biblico che Gesù ha usato per dimostrare come il cristianesimo non sia tanto legato alle regole quanto all'amore".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
