lyrics

Lyrics written by Chris Davis.

Never so high, than when I'm on my knees, (An intercessory wish) Humbled myself, just to gain some strength, (An intercessory wish) Lift me up, like the dove, that was released and set me free, so that I may see if these waters have started to recede, Because I've been drowning, Wake me up because I must be dreaming, (An intercessory wish) I'm out of the box because I stopped the digging, (An intercessory wish) Lift me up, like the dove that was released and set me free, so that I may see if these waters have started to recede, Because I've been drowning and because faith is a sight unseen, I am a visionary and I will see right through this, Or am I dreaming? Now close your eyes and throw in your coin, because a wishing well only works when you don't tell, Lift me up like the dove, that was released and set me free, so that I may see if these waters have started to recede, Lift me up like the dove, that was released and set me free so that I may know see.

*Synopsis: I had this friend, he was going through a tough spell, but headed in the right direction. It was good to see all of the support this person got. Supporting him, in a strange way, made up for some past mistakes of my own and kinda helped vindicate some personal whatnot. So, my situation was that I felt like I was on my knees and at a crossroads and strangely enough; I felt I too was on the right track even though things looked pretty bleak. This song also has an image of the dove that was released in order to find out whether or not the largest flood ever to hit the earth had truly dwindled or not. As the story goes. Faith got me through alot and I think that it did my friend too. The truth sets us free, but first it pisses you off, being able to deal with it is another story. Especially if you don't know the situation at hand. It is only when you accept and acknowledge truth that it frees you.
