Still Unbeaten Life

[Verse 1]

Lo and behold my doubt

Ball away like cold

Under graceless light

Now and before I pass

Like some old returning ghost

Lend to me your hallowed gaze tonight

[Verse 2]

Pressed to the wakin’ walls

Like some wayward kind

Summoned by some hollow, wasted mind

Stark in my naked pose

With your arms upon my sides

(Ooh)

Lend to me your hallowed frame tonight

[Verse 3]

I will not lie

I will not loath

I will not waste any days I have left in my soul

But I will stand

I will stand now in your might

I will not crash

I will not burn

But I will pay any debt to your hands that I owe

For your still

Your still unbeaten life

[Verse 4]

Now that I'm nought for one

And my blood is red

Flowing from the innerstate again

Braved by your heart’s resolve

And my body's endless toil

Lead me in your hallowed sway to bed

Slow, slight

Close and inspired

You spark some great fire

And hang it from my coatless frame tonight

[Verse 5]

I will not trade, I will not toil

I will not stray from this bed

I will not stray from this soil

Until my bones, my bones lay with it all

I will not raise forgotten flags

But I will step to the hill with your name in my cap

For your still, your still unbeaten life

Your still, your still unbeaten life, oh

Your still, your still unbeaten life

[Verse 6]

Rise

Get up, I'll sing you to life

Let every breath in you defy

Whatever’s pullin’ you to God's own kingdom

And here's to sticking fingers in our ears

They said we’d have a couple years

You're dead on paper, but hey we're still here

Flash the wicked bumps with killer stares

Say "I'm not fighting you for air

Don’t call me dead, ‘cause hey, I’m still here"

Fight, like every breath in you's a strike

From some great fighter in the sky

Oh, and breathe abundantly tonight

Dance atop the grave that has your name

For what it's worth, I'll do the same

Oh, oh

Oh

Oh, oh
