lyrics

JESUS WEPT

Scream out asthmatic breath in my lungs
I prayed so hard but
Death keeps coming
Struggling, suffering
No wonder Jesus wept
Not because he couldn’t stop it
But because of how he felt

just like we feel now
He walked here
Off streets of gold
He walked here
Where it reeks of mold and stains and rusted trust in stories told
Nothing fixes everything here (NOT YET)
Nah, nothing fixes everything here

So
Breathe
Breath
We’re fighting death
With every second and every day

We got to
Inhale
Exhale
Our lungs are gettin stale
Feel no emotion tho tears are falling
Anger expression growing

Will I - Will I
Will I explode
I guess I will one day
I’ll follow my loved ones and
Pass away
into reality
Where death will have no power over me or
Or over anyone, anything, anymore - forever

Justin
Justin
Just in time apart
Now I hope you hear my rhyme
And that new heart
Beats forever
And nothing ever ever
gonna take it away from you.

Rest In Peace
Say hi to Jesus for me
I hope you meet my mom
We’re gonna miss you homie

This is not goodbye tho
just see ya later, after a while, uh..

Please Jesus make all things new soon
Please Jesus make all things new soon
Please Jesus make all things new soon
I hate it.
(Jesus wept...)
I know you hate it too

(Please Jesus make all things new soon
Please Jesus make all things new soon
Please Jesus make all things new soon)

My My My Lord come quickly
Amen all men just better be ready
Its not a prayer to take lightly
It might be your end or it might be your new beginning
And I get tired and weary

So Lord come quickly
Amen all men we better be ready
It’s not a prayer I take lightly
It might be the end or it might be a new beginning
And I get so tired and weary

So Lord come quickly
Open up your Bibles to the last page with me
The final thoughts there are like Lord come quickly
Its both a promise and a warning so hear me
when I say Amen

Breathe
Breath
Were fighting death
Every second and every day
We got to inhale exhale
Our lungs gettin stale
if you’re running out of breath
You can still pray

Please Jesus make all things new soon
Please Jesus make all things new soon
Please Jesus make all things new soon
I hate it
Jesus wept
Ugh, I know he hates it too.
