[01:34.50]As I sit alone and tired, with time to spare
[01:40.55]temptation rears its ugly head
[01:45.66]Born from a deceptive dream into a nightmare
[01:51.12]it calls to me again
[01:56.32]Testing me to see if I will break this time
[02:01.75]or at least how far I'll bend
[02:06.91]I can see its glowing eyes and hear its evil cries
[02:12.38]"Come dance with me, my friend..."
[02:18.87]
[02:39.04]So, the things that I want to do
[02:44.02]I find myself not doing
[02:46.39]but the things that I don't want to do
[02:49.55]I fall into
[02:52.01]
[02:53.25](Why?)
[02:55.40]Why do we struggle with the former things
[02:58.31]and live in our own power below our means?
[03:02.57]
[03:11.80](War)
[03:13.51]Don't you understand this is war?
[03:15.93]War with the principalities and powers
[03:18.60]things unseen that would devour us all
[03:23.02]
[03:24.18](The spirit battles the flesh)
[03:26.84]And now my wounds are deep
[03:28.94]and torn wide open
[03:30.69]I'm tired and weary, hurt and broken down
[03:33.43]
[03:34.34](Lead us not)
[03:36.68]into temptation
[03:38.41](but deliver us)
[03:42.14]from the evil one
[03:44.29](Darkness falls)
[03:47.68]On my spirit again
[03:49.65](Again temptation calls)
[03:52.71]I can hear it
[03:54.30]
[03:55.16]As the battle rages on and on
[04:00.27]I face the things that put my faith to the test
[04:05.59]When fallen angels won't leave me alone
[04:10.90]Father, come and lay the demon to rest
[04:15.93]When my sword has broken off in my hand
[04:21.29]I see the dark futility of the flesh
[04:26.39]When I'm about to fall, please help me stand
[04:31.72]Father, come and lay the demon to rest
[04:40.56]
[06:52.66]They're on my back
[06:55.21]I run, but I can feel their talons
[06:57.04]digging in my flesh
[06:58.44]Blood trickles down upon the earth
[07:01.94]and I grow weaker with each breath
[07:04.29]Each time I shake one off
[07:06.60]another wraps its teeth around my neck
[07:09.56]And every time, the one, the thorn is there
[07:13.67]To tear me down again
[07:21.11]
[07:24.51]The angels counterstrike
[07:27.77]Their flaming swords slice through the fallen ones
[07:30.66]The demons reunite, attack again
[07:34.71]The cycle has begun
[07:36.47]Caught in the middle of this present darkness
[07:39.76]with nowhere to run
[07:41.72]We're in a holy war
[07:43.81]As it is written, so shall it be done
[07:45.77]
[07:46.50]Where there's a will, there's a way, they say
[07:51.33]but sometimes my will seems to get in the way
[07:56.69]So You will have to fight for me today
[08:02.54]So You will have to fight for me today
[08:07.70]So You will have to fight for me today
[08:13.26]
[08:13.95]As the battle rages on and on
[08:18.88]I face the things that put my faith to the test
[08:24.09]When fallen angels won't leave me alone
[08:29.51]Father, come and lay the demon to rest
[08:34.65]When my sword has broken off in my hand
[08:40.01]I see the dark futility of the flesh
[08:45.21]When I'm about to fall, please help me stand
[08:50.62]Father, come and lay the demon to rest
[09:00.24]To rest
[09:04.62]To rest
[09:10.06]To rest
[09:15.73]To rest
[09:27.63]
