"Tyrant Kings" lyrics
"Tyrant Kings"
Shadows of greatness, yeah, it's the story of a small town
We wore the colors of our favorite little let down
The lies we told were never much, but who could keep track
Enough that we all left the fire and never looked back
The tyrant kings
We had everything
Still I’m feeling like a vagrant in my own town
I'm like an awkward conversation
All of this work and I ain’t seein' any wages
I ain’t gonna stop until I do
Whoa
Whoa
More times than not the ones you love are who you let down
We're chasing something big our parents never tracked down
The hardest part is looking back and making sense of
The humble tries and troubled times of where we came from
The tyrant kings
We had everything
Still I’m feeling like a vagrant in my own town
I'm like an awkward conversation
All of this work and I ain’t seein' any wages
I ain’t gonna stop until I do
Whoa
Still I’m feeling like a vagrant
Lost in a world where no one thinks that we can make it
Don't you know time is like a fortune when we take it
Baby, let me spend my time with you
Whoa
Whoa
The tyrant kings
We had everything
Still we run to you
We were like tyrant kings
We had everything
Still we run to you
Still I’m feeling like a vagrant in my own town
I'm like an awkward conversation
All of this work and I ain’t seein' any wages
I ain’t gonna stop until I do
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
Shadows of greatness, yeah, it's the story of a small town
We wore the colors of our favorite little let down

Tell me there's something we can say

Switchfoot - "Enough To Let Me Go" Oh
I'm a wandering soul
I'm still walking the line that leads me home
Alone
All I know
I've still got mountains to climb
On my own
On my own
Do you love me enough to let me go?
Do you love me enough...
Tenth Avenue North - "Hold My Heart" How long must I pray,
Must I pray to You?
How long must I wait,

Begging You to notice me.
I'm on my...

Where many a dream has died
Like a tree planted by the water

Matthew West - "Mercy Is A Song" Mercy is a song, singing to my heart
Telling me it's ok, come just as you are
I never heard a melody, like the one they're singing over me
And I just wanna sing along, 'cause mercy is a song
