Deceivers Lyrics by I Prevail

Heart vs. Mind - EP

2014

[Intro: Brian Burkheiser]
I was so wrong to believe all of you

[Verse 1: Eric Vanlerberghe and Brian Burkheiser]
Every time I open my eyes, I see the darkness come through
(The darkness come through)
I see the world through the undertow
These anchors of hope, they drag me down below
Put my faith in ones who promised change
But where has it gotten me?
A broken dreamer, from a, corrupted preacher
A vagabond, without a home
I've been cursed to wander all alone

[Pre-Chorus: Brian Burkheiser]
'Cause I've been buried alive (I've been buried)
But I still have hope inside, yeah

[Chorus: Eric Vanlerberghe and Brian Burkheiser]
I was so wrong to believe all of you
Every time I open my eyes, I see the darkness come through
(The darkness come through)
If that's what's left of me, to live my life aimlessly
I'll search for a light, a way to fight, until the world collapses on me
(Collapses on me)

[Verse 2: Eric Vanlerberghe]
What good comes from the hands of a thief, the words of a beggar, the mind of a coward, the heart of a sinner?
The hands dug the grave, and the words threw me in
The mine's still caved shut, but my heart's still beatin'

[Pre-Chorus: Eric Vanlerberghe and Brian Burkheiser]
'Cause I've been buried alive (I've been buried)
But I still have hope inside, yeah

[Chorus: Eric Vanlerberghe and Brian Burkheiser]
I was so wrong to believe all of you
Every time I open my eyes, I see the darkness come through
(The darkness come through)
If that's what's left of me, to live my life aimlessly
I'll search for a light, a way to fight, until the world collapses on me
(Collapses on me)
Collapses on me (Collapses on me)
Collapses on me!

[Bridge: Brian Burkheiser]
Is this it? Have I spent a lifetime of regret?
Not knowing what I want
Giving up all of my thoughts
But I've changed who I am
I'll start over again
Change my ways, change my life
I am finally alive

[Outro: Eric Vanlerberghe and Brian Burkheiser]
Is this it?
Have I spent a lifetime of regret?
Not knowing what I want
Giving up all of my thoughts
But I've changed who I am
I'll start over again
Change my ways, change my life
I am finally alive
Is this it?
Have I spent a lifetime of regret?
Not knowing what I want
Giving up all of my thoughts
But I've changed who I am
I'll start over again
Change my ways, change my life
I am finally alive
I am finally alive
I am finally alive
