Empty

Tait Empty歌詞
1.Alibi

作詞:Peter Abraham Stewart, Michael Tait

I'm trying hard to understand you
And your over-rated state of mind
Sometimes you try to move me to you
And make believe that it's all fine

And you say you love me, yes you do
But I know who I'm talking to
You left me so lonely and empty

And I don't need your alibis
'Cause I can see through all your lies
You say you love me and I'll need you
But I don't need to live my life that way, no way

Every storm deserves an ending
And a break to peaceful skies
And every night I pray for my own mending

And you say you love me, yes you do
But I know who I'm talking to
You left me so lonely and empty

And I don't need your alibis
'Cause I can see through all your disguise
You say you love me and I'll need you
But I don't need to live my life that way, no way

Parading around like you're a superstar
Is that who you think you are
The higher you go, yeah, the harder you fall
Oh yeah

You say you love me, yes you do
But I know who I'm talking to
You left me so lonely and empty

And I don't need your alibis
'Cause I can see through your disguise
You say you love me and I'll need you
But I don't need to live my life that way, no way

You say you love me and I'll need you
But I don't need to live my life that way, no way


2.Unqlued

Restless and alone
A weary soul has traveled home
What am I to do
In a world without you
I don't want to believe
I turned around and you're gone
All the sweet memories
Of loving you for so long

Sometimes it's hard
Most times I cry
But God holds this heart of mine
He feels the pain inside

Broken and undone
You were the one we counted on
You taught us how to say
I love you
Then you showed us how to pray
I don't want to believe
I turned around and you're gone
All of the sweet memories
Of loving you for so long

Sometimes it's hard
Most times I cry
But God holds this heart of mine
And He heals the pain I hide

Sometimes it's hard
Most times I cry
But God knows this heart of mine
He feels the pain inside


3.Tell Me Why

作詞:Chad Chapin, Ormel Chapin, Mark Heimermann, Michael Tait

Alright, I talked to mother just today
She told me daddy walked away
Now everything's about to change

Oh, I sought for words, I could not find
Thousand questions filled my mind
How could you throw it all away?

My heart is left without a home
But I won't let it turn to stone
There's got to be another way
Ooh, 'cause I can't take this pain

Tell me why, tell me why
Why do people run away
Can we try, try to find
Try to find the will to stay

A beating heart, a tender kiss
Love is so much more than this
Always givin' in and never givin' up

I know the man I want to be
I've seen enough of misery
It's time for me to break free, yeah

Doubt may whisper in my ear
But I will love in spite of fear
With everything inside of me, yeah
Tell me, is it just a dream

Tell me why, tell me why
Why do people run away
Can we try, try to find
Try to find the will to stay

I'm finally finding my way back to love
My way back to love again
Oh, I'm finally finding my way back to love
My way back to love again

Doubt may whisper in my ear
That I will love in spite of fear
With everything inside of me
Oh, does anyone believe

Tell me why, tell me why
Why do people run away
Can we try, try to find
Tell me why we run away

'Cause every time you run
Every time you run away
Can we try, can we try, try, try, try
You don't have to run
You don't have to run away, oh


4.Reconnecting

作詞:Mark Heimermann, Judson Timothy Spence, Michael Tait

Been stuck there under the gun
Tired of living like the prodigal son
Everything has come undone
And left me wanting

I'm naked for the world to see
So hungry on the inside to believe
Come down and direct my feet
Start me running

I've been outta touch but I'm reconnecting
I've had enough of my way and I'm tired of rejecting
I realized it was all a lie so I climbed down from the edge
I've been outta touch but I'm reconnecting to You

I can feel You under my skin
Wanna have You light me up again
Tell me where I should begin
Keep me turning

Power comes from Your extension
The words You speak are my intervention
Give me sight to know Your intention
Light me I'm burning

I've been outta touch but I'm reconnecting
I've had enough of my way and I'm tired of rejecting
I realized it was all a lie so I climbed down from the edge
I've been outta touch but reconnecting to You

I'm reconnecting
I'm reconnecting, reconnecting

I've been outta touch but I'm reconnecting
I've had enough of my way and I'm tired of rejecting
I realized it was all a lie so I climbed down from the edge
I've been outta touch but I'm reconnecting
Oh I've been outta touch but I'm reconnecting to You


5.American Tragedy

作詞:Chad Chapin, Kevin Max, Toby Mckeehan, Peter Stewart, Michael
Tait

Art is in motion, look around
At the everyday people in everyday towns
Love is an ocean as deep as the sky
Gotta keep our arms open or we're never gonna fly

It's a tragedy all the hate I see
Am I left to be a slave to history?
Love's our common ground yeah, my skin is brown
Ain't no sweeter sound walls are tumblin' down

I can't deny it overwhelms
That changing your world means changing yourself
And you can't tell me that you've already tried
'Cause we're never gonna shine until we swallow our pride

It's a tragedy all the hate I see
Am I left to be a slave to history?
Love's our common ground yeah, my skin is brown
Ain't no sweeter sound walls are tumblin' down

Yes it's a tragedy all the hate I see
Am I left to be a slave to history?
Love's our common ground yeah, my skin is brown
Ain't no sweeter sound walls are tumblin' down

Questions in you are the questions in me
And I'm no closer to answers than you are to me
If we just believe then we all can be free


6.Altars

作詞:Jim Hanon, Fundisha Sadigua Johnson, Cort Langland, Michael
Tait

Can You feel the silent cries of a soul in need?
Underneath the city lights they're altars in the street
Through the walls I hear the sound of a beggar's plea
Looking for salvation from the altars in the street

And it's so sad, people drifted away on a concrete sea
It's too bad, faded lives

Burn, won't You burn in me?
Eternal flame won't You light my name, burn in me?

If God is grace then bless the child
Who's left alone tonight, set him free, free to fly

'Cause it's so sad, people wasted away in such a subtle display
It's too bad, sacred lives

So burn, won't You burn in me?
Eternal flame won't You light my name, burn in me?
Oh burn, won't You burn in me?
Oh eternal flame won't You light my name, burn in me?

If I stayed close everything You once held onto
And I know, yeah I know, sometimes You hurt

Burn, won't You burn in me?
Oh eternal flame won't You light my name, burn in me?
Oh burn, won't You burn in me?
You're my eternal flame why don't You light my name and burn,
burn, burn


7.All You Got

作詞:Chad Chapin, Kevin Max, Toby Mckeehan, Peter Stewart, Michael
Tait

Heard you say that no one seems to care 'bout you
It's in your eyes, you think that life's unfair to you
Just give it all you got, my friend
Just give it all you got, it's not the end

'Cause you oughta know, there's a reason for these changin'
seasons
God only knows how much your heart can bare
So don't you let go, everybody has their up and down times
And everybody needs to know how much they're loved, my friend
So hold on, it's not the end

As I remember everything you touch would turn to gold
You have the secrets to make your grandest dreams unfold
You are the very best of us all
But the sun that rises still falls, yes you oughta know

'Cause you oughta know, there's a reason for these changin'
seasons
God only knows how much your heart can bare
So don't you let go, everybody has their up and down times
And everybody needs to know how much they're loved, my friend
So hold on, it's not the end

It's just a love song 'cause everybody needs a friend
And I'll be right here for you
It's just a simple prayer it's from the bottom of my heart
That he'll never let you go

'Cause you oughta know, there's a reason for these changin'
seasons
God only knows how much your heart can bear
So don't you let go, everybody has their up and down times
Everybody needs to know how much they're loved

'Cause you oughta know, there's a reason for these changin'
seasons
God only knows how much your heart can bare
So don't you let go, everybody needs to know how much they're
loved
My friend, so hold on, it's not the end

Just a love song
