You have an undervalued soul
that you're trying to sell
Though they offer you heaven
They will give you hell
Its worth is a secret
You succumb to their lies
They feigned their appraisals
They smothered your eyes
They may offer you freedom
But what do they give?
A freedom of smoke
Water through a sieve
You have an undervalued soul
that you're trying to sell
Though they offer you heaven
They will give you hell
I know well the place
that your soul longs for
And all you must do
Is knock on that door
Because true happiness cannot be found
Where the shopping malls of 'freedom' abound
You have an undervalued soul
that you're trying to sell
Though they offer you heaven
They will give you hell
Jesus has come,
With power as God's son
The true evaluation made
The price has been paid

Prisoner
I'm a self-made prisoner
I gag my mouth with lies
These bonds of selfishness
With my own hands I've tied
The cell door is locked
I locked it from my side
I'm a self-made prisoner
With nowhere left to hide
I gag my mouth with lies
These bonds of selfishness
With my own hands I've tied
The cell door is locked
I locked it from my side
I'm a self-made prisoner
With nowhere left to hide

Addiction
A short term loan
With deferred repayments
Daily interest: so low
so docile, so harmless
But add up the days
Weeks, months and the years
The moments of laughter
The lifetime of tears
Compound up the interest
Multiplied at each date
The actual cost of your debt
Will be greater than great
Pretty soon your addiction
Which started so small
Will become all consuming
And swallow you whole
It offered you happiness
Satisfaction indeed
Has ruptured your wallet
Has left you to bleed
But I know a one
A rich man, some say
Who is willing and able
To take it away
To pay the price
So you may run free
I know he can help you
Because he also helped me
With deferred repayments
Daily interest: so low
so docile, so harmless
But add up the days
Weeks, months and the years
The moments of laughter
The lifetime of tears
Compound up the interest
Multiplied at each date
The actual cost of your debt
Will be greater than great
Pretty soon your addiction
Which started so small
Will become all consuming
And swallow you whole
It offered you happiness
Satisfaction indeed
Has ruptured your wallet
Has left you to bleed
But I know a one
A rich man, some say
Who is willing and able
To take it away
To pay the price
So you may run free
I know he can help you
Because he also helped me

There's two voices inside of me
There's two forces it's frightening
Day and night the forces fight
Not sure which side's winning, despite
knowing who's side i'm on.
One voice makes me do wrong things
Despite the warning the other sings
"Remember what happened last time" it rings
"The short lived joy that doesnt satisfy"
My thought's arry, in the battleground of my mind
p.s. i warned you that it was cliche'
