Telephone Man

Love overcomes
Lust overwhelms
In the past
I cannot dwell
I've been living in hell
For so long I can tell
There is hope somewhere else
In the sky where my God dwells
There is forgiveness
There is repentance
There is redemption
There is consistence
I must live my life
Wrong or right
Black or white
So there's no confusion
So pick your poison

Life is a documentary
Of misery and heartbreak
And my heart aches
At the thought
Of all I've had
And all I've lost
But to die
Is to gain
And to live is Christ

Sights from the highway bring me peace
Billboards, old cars, dirty streets
The thought of going to a place
Where no one knows my name
They say the grass is greener
On the other side
But I have become colorblind
I fall in love with cities
Instead of my family
With memories
Instead of what's in front of me
It seems a simple life has come to an end
I'm trying for patience
But my anxiety is contagious
I let my heart bend but I'll never let it break
For Gods sake I hope it never breaks
