Underoath - When The Sun Sleeps

i thought you'd come back
  at least i prayed (so i prayed)
  the romance has been dead for years
  but i've been too afraid
  to dig the grave (so i prayed)
  relief, support, never came
 
  memories carry me through the days
  of when we were kids
  and angels came to watch us play
 
  close my eyes
  just for tonight
  the sun still sleeps
  and when she wakes
 
  a movie that plays in my mind
  remembering you helps me survive
  every day a re-run of the next
  i promised to stay by your side
  that all would change
  I can't complain
  another victim of the game
 
  close my eyes
  just for tonight
  the sun still sleeps
  and when she wakes
 
  maybe love will find us again
  for there is always tomorrow
  sincerely 'til the end
 
  close my eyes
  just for tonight
  the sun still sleeps
  and when she wakes
  you'll be a memory

Underoath - Letting Go Of Tonight

Never forget the time you made me feel alive
  When death was on my mind
  Or when you held onto me
  When the world let me fall behind
  You were love to me rather than just a word
  A friend was all you were
  And it changed my heart
  Stood next to me through the storm
  Felt the wounds and kept me warm
  Something I had never seen before
  And I thank you

Underoath - A Love So Pure

Always did it on my own then one day I realized
  I was blind,, nothing I could do on my own
  Turn, we have found a way to see, look up... feel the Almighty
  Take control as we gaze into your eyes
  We're just the tool you use to bring this world to you
  Oh, Lord, how we love you
  With your grace, take away the hurt and the bruises inside,
  reach down let your glory reside
  The cross carried for all of us, paint the image in my mind
  So I will never think I am something,
  but nothing am I but you, you are something
  Lord you keep me alive, you give me rest at night
  When there seems no way to find calmness in the storm you come and
  take me in your arms and then the waves drown me no more
  With you I'll last this battle and many others
  Through the ages your name will reigh forever... never to be replaced
  In these trials I face, I pray you humble me
  Humble me I want to be like you Jesus more and more like you
  I was crucified on that day with Christ
  Nailing you there with sin, accepting you
  I nailed my soul to the cross and now my life begins
  This world so cold but your love keeps me warm
  My father holds me in his nailed scarred hands which I put there
  But for some reason he still loves me with all his heart
  Even through I betray him constantly
  He always keeps his arms open waiting, till I give up my old was
  God my father, you are the only one that can give me comfort
  You touch my heart in such a way that all I can do is cry your name
  Jesus Christ I love you
  My heart aches for your love

Underoath - Act Of Depression

I tried to cry out from the inside,
  But I guess my soul did not pour itself out enough
  Blood on the walls, flaming black, blood on the walls,
  I saw you staring through the cracks
  No one was to know what was happening in me I felt no love,
  I felt no reason to carry on with my life
  Everything was wrong, nothing was right,
  At least that is what I thought
  Kids finding laughter at my expense
  They were killing me on the inside they couldn't give up their pride
  My heart was bleeding from so much grieving
  On the outside I looked fine,
  You couldn't tell but on the inside was eternal hell
  I got caught up in the moment of depression,
  and before I knew it my bodywas lying on the ground
  With a gun in my hand my hourglass was out of sand
  Thanks to all the people who drove me to death
  Without you I could of never ended my breath
  Through your anger and hate, I was able to choose my fate
  There was a way out, but I chose the easy route
  Blast of a gun, breath runs out, final thoughts put to extinction
  No more pain, no more love,
  For you have chosen suicide as the way out... help them
  Ice cold fingers, body lays on the floor,
  pool of blood you see, you scream out in terror
  Her body is now a part of mutilation,
  Her soul the victim of strangulation
  I will not accept this evil anymore
  I never thought of who I hurt or I never tried to look for the good
  I'm sorry for whoever I hurt, it's not easy to look back on my life,
  and know I did not know Christ
  For now I live in a real hell
  I wish I had another chance... then I would live my life with love

Underoath - Short Of Daybreak

Another year has gone by
  Time just took it away
  Friends have changed
  Clear skies watched over us
  But we've had our share of rain
  Romance still sits untouched
  By the water she waits patiently
  Hoping it'll take her home someday
  To think I lost her
  That my dreams were her only place
  But for her I've learned to wait
  A smile remains on my face knowing
  God holds her at night
  Letting her know I'm on my way
  So I'll hold my head high
  For love may be a day
  I can't say
  But tomorrow awaits
  Bringing me closer to you

Underoath - A Message For Adrienne

I tried so hard to be her day
  But the night has already taken me away
  Shredding dreams under the maple tree
  Where I carved your name
  Nothing left, Not even time
  Straight reads the line
  His life had reached the end
  Waiting only to be loved by Adrienne
  Letters explained his grief
  But she would never read
  His wrists would bleed
  But she would never see
  So he took his life at the age of 23
  And she had always loved him
  But he would never know
  For she covered her love
  Like stars cover the sky
  Hiding her heart
  Fearing what he would find inside
  Years took her away
  A widow she remained
  Holding him deep inside
  Wishing she too would die
  Time favors no one and if we wait
  We too can fall in love
  A second too late

Underoath - Waking Away

the day i left you was the worst mistake i ever made
  was ready to become something
  i didn't need you dragging me down
  thought your love just wasn't enough
  my hair combed, nice shoes tied tight
  was ready to conquer life
  help unwanted i can do this on my own
  and then i found myself wounded
  tripping over myself, falling and scraping my knee
  sadness fills for i know i've failed
  why did i leave scared to go back
  hoping you'll take me in with open arms
  but also know the hurt i've caused
  the breeze of angel wings
  standing there a midst of lowers of every being
  tears grow and orchestra begins to play
  what a beautiful day, why are you alone
  run child it's time for you to go home
  wounded spirit face in the dirt
  i cry out for you to take me in
  your heart holds me close, and
  i look up to face this world which so scares me
  faith in you loneliness just seems to fade.
  the man once inside now a child walking in your footsteps
  hoping held leaves under feet from the trees of fall
  listening to autumn's call
  a deep breathe to continue on, fragile
  depending on you Christ carry's me the rest of the walk

Underoath - And I Dreamt Of You

i see thy love in the distance
  breathless gasping for air, for in thy dreams you where
  awakening to the bleakness in my room
  as my eyes begin to blear reality sets and starts the fear
  for do dreams come true or do i die alone
  waiting like the petals of a wilting flower fall off
  until there is non and the once beautiful flowers dies naked
  with no one to clothe it
  will i hold you in the grave or will the grave hold me?
  the numbing dreams never end the swallow's wings still amonsgt
  the idle wind
  my colored wold turns to grayscale
  recollecting the memories eyes covered hazel
  contradiction of thy thoughts standing calm love not lost
  searching till i find my princess whose passionate eyes
  cut right through me
  for what is life if love only exists in thy thoughts?
  what is romance if it is all fiction?
  nothing but a portrait left empty, a passing cloud of hurt
  by to meet ym love in the flesh is to find my whole heart
  your heart breaks though me your love is the key
  longing for my hearts door
  to what day till i see sunrays shine upon your face
  i dream of you the way you look
  the beating of love in your heart
  your wolds are like the flowing of a spring, knowing thy love
  waits for me until eternity's end
  is this poetry or is this love's sickness
  engulfing my every being
  take the heart from you and the blood ceases from me
  i see what you hear
  breathe taking the closest thing to me and my savior
  falling in love to a person i have never met
  but knowing she has salvation's fragrance
  by God's grace this love will be free and able to fly away above
  the earth to a point of exhaustion
  but your breath will keep me alive
  words are pointless for this love is speechless
  preparing fro the curtains close
  laying their clutching hands so tight i can feel your heart
  telling me it will be all right
  ascension to heaven wehre this love can not only walk
  but it runs through the endless fields of joy
  where love neither ends nor begins but flows everlasting
  this was thy dream this daybreak and will by thy prayer
  that i will rest sleepless till the sun rises on that day
  and butterflies sing with us as we write love symphony
  the pages of life fill the story of our love in a time long ago
  where fairy tales come true
  and you and i my love will live happily everafter
  i love you
