Album: The Great Struggling

I know it feels like the struggle never quits, because the dark never sleeps,
and the silence gets most violent when ever you're lying in the sheets.
So let me speak.

For the broken hearts and the empty lives,
all of us addicts chasing shallows highs for the quiet types' vacant smiles.
Hiding in pain so that nobody sees.
This is for those who don't remember last week, for those frozen in time by guilt and regret, and those wishing for the time they'll never get back.
For the people abandoned by love and ruined by death.
Voices in our heads that are never content.
It's for everyone who ever lived a day in this life and for everyone thinking of quitting tonight.
There is light that promises hope!
I need you to just
HOLD FAST.
I believe in you.
HOLD FAST.
And this hope won't stem from the empty substitutes helping you cope.
Self help only really helps to keep ourselves alone, and I think we're all tired of being alone.
I've known too many good people go chase the lesser of two evils with all of these needles, and pills, and potions that fill these gaping holes inside of us.
I feel like somebody lied to us, but tonight when I say that there is hope.
I promise there is hope, I need you to just
HOLD FAST.
I believe in you.
HOLD FAST.
Listen, you are not the the only ones with the stains of failure.
We all make chaos by our natural behaviors and our scores are understatements.
We really really really need a savior, so savor this:
Who made the planets and stars and managed man from the start?
Who tells the sun where to set and built this world with a breath?
The canyons and mountains, rivers and valleys, oceans and deserts, are all proof of His presence.
The thunder and lighting display His immenseness.
For His power's unmatched, His grace is unmeasured, and when He looks at your face, He calls you His treasure, says "you're actually a masterpiece", promises life that reason can't believe, because believe me, our success is not probable, but our God works the impossible so I'm calling on all you broken misfit people just like me.
Take this hope that calms the raging seas, maybe we can be the change humanity has never seen before, as an army of rejects held together by heart support.
HOLD FAST.
HOLD FAST.
HOLD FAST.
I believe in you.
HOLD FAST.
