Break the Teeth

What day is today
Is it a blessing or a curse
I'll just wait for the best while the worst stays and lurks
In my mouth, in my mind
I'm just fine, in this line, behind clocks burning time

Only when you use the freedom to choose does love become real
Only when you abuse the freedom in place does love hide its face

Just look at me, my commitment
My convenient use of Your name
And while the whole world was turning, I was turning
To pat their backs and tie them to the tracks
Look at me, my commitment
I thought You could tell, I thought You would yell
But if You can't, I can't, and my whole life tastes of waste
Just look at me, my commitment
My convenient use of Your name

Only when you use the freedom to choose does love become real
Only when you abuse the freedom in place does love hide its face

But does love hide its face
Or do we mistake grace for coincidence
If You've been blessing me every day of my life
Then I've just been too blind

As I stand I begin to faint, and as my body faints
I am acquainted with grace
Not mistaken with fakes, this time
Every moment we waste burns our tongue and our taste buds
As they wither in place, I am left face to face
With two figures approaching, and one of them choking
The strife in my mouth You pull out
As I shout and sing praises
What comes next amazes me still
What comes next amazes me still
My self takes his fill as You hold out Your hand
He demands that his life be his hands
Then he stands and departs
But the globes and the charts can't say where
He was me. I am me
And if I follow You, I am free
I am free

Oh, Lord, be my shield
I laid down and slept
I slept with the enemy, oh no
Oh lord, be my shield
I woke up from rest and found
The enemy was me

I will not be afraid of 10,000 people
All Hail the King
Salvation and freedom belong to You
Break, break the teeth
