Addison Road Stories Lyrics
1.Fight Another Day

Your broken dreams, your crazy schemes
They always let you down
The things we chase, a hopeless race
You're breathless on the ground
From soaring heights to crashing dives
A peace yet to be found
But you could spend a lifetime running
You could spend a lifetime running

And do you feel the fire when the flame gets hot
Are you living every day like it's the last you've got
Will you step aside when it all falls down and watch it burn
away
Have a little faith when the walls cave in
Spread your wings and fly against the wind
Will you walk away when the fire gets hot
Or fight another
Another day

Your fractured heart, your disregard
It leaves you frozen still
A slow withdrawal from it all
That keeps you unfulfilled
Will you spend a lifetime running
Cause you could spend a lifetime running

And do you feel the fire when the flame gets hot
Are you living every day like it's the last you've got
Will you step aside when it all falls down and watch it burn
away
Have a little faith when the walls cave in
Spread your wings and fly against the wind
Will you walk away when the fire gets hot
Or fight another
Another day

Even when your heart's been broken
He'll be there with arms wide open
Be strong and his love will lead you
To fight another day
Even when your heart's been broken
He'll be there with arms wide open
Be strong and his love will lead you
To fight another day
Even when your heart's been broken
He'll be there with arms wide open
Be strong and his love will lead you
To fight another day
Even when your heart's been broken
He'll be there with arms wide open
Be strong and his love will lead you
To fight another day
Keep your head to the sun cause it's shining on you, on you


2.Change In The Making

There's a better version of me
That I can't quite see
But things are gonna change
Right now I'm a total mess and
Right now I'm completely incomplete
But things are gonna change
Cause you're not through with me yet

This is redemption's story
With every step that I am taking
Every day, you're chipping away
What I don't need
This is me under construction
This is my pride being broken
And every day I'm closer to who I'm meant to be
I am a change in the making

Wish I could live more patiently
Wish I could give a little more of me
Without stopping to think twice
Wish I had faith like a little child
Wish I could walk a single mile
Without tripping on my own feet
But you're not through with me yet

This is redemption's story
With every step that I am taking
Every day, you're chipping away
What I don't need
This is me under construction
This is my pride being broken
And every day I'm closer to who I'm meant to be

From the dawn of history
You make new and you redeem
From a broken world to a broken heart
You finish what you start in everything

Like a river rolls into the sea
We're not who we're going to be
But things are going to change

I am living redemption's story
With every step that I am taking
Every day, you're chipping away
What I don't need
This is me under construction
This is my pride being broken
And every day I'm closer to who I'm meant to be
I am a change in the making

I am a change in the making
I am not who I am gonna be
Moving closer to your glory


3.Little Light Of Mine

There's a little flame inside a soul
Some shine bright
Some shine small
The rains will come
And the waters rise
But don't you ever lose your light

In this life you will know
Love and pain
Joy and sorrow
So when it hurts
When times get hard
Don't forget whos child you are

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm Gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine

May you live each day
With no regret
Make the most of every chance you get
And your eyes get wide
When you look at the stars
With the same sense of wonder as a child's heart

May the ones you love
Treasure the time
And for those who are gone
Keep the memories alive
Hold on to your dreams
Don't you ever let go
There's a fire inside you
Burning with hope

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine

There will be days when you wanna give up
When the clouds settle in
But after the rain comes the sun
Don't you ever forget
Don't forget
Don't, don't forget

One day there will be no more pain
And we will finally see Jesus' face
So until then I'm gonna try
To brave the dark
And let my little light shine

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine

This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine
Oh, shine
Gonna let it shine
There's a little light inside us all


4.Won't Let Me Go

Welcome to my latest disaster
Same book just another chapter
I never thought it could be worse than last year
But here I am again today
I laugh cause it hurts when I scream
But I'll make it through cause I believe

That even when my heart breaks
And everything's shaken
I'm left alone in the rain
You won't, you won't, won't
You won't let me go
When life's insane
And everything's crazy
You carry me through the pain
And you won't, you won't, won't
You won't let me go

Here we go it's a three-ring circus
Juggling it all, trying to find my purpose
With each new day, I'm praying just to make it through
When my next disaster is near
I know that you'll meet me right here
So I won't fear

That even when my heart breaks
And everything's shaken
I'm left alone in the rain
You won't, you won't, won't
You won't let me go
When life's insane
And everything's crazy
You carry me through the pain
And you won't, you won't, won't
You won't let me go

I feel your love that surrounds me
My world can shake but it won't drown me
Cause I'm trusting you
No matter what I'm going through

That even when my heart breaks
And everything's shaken
I'm left alone in the rain
You won't, you won't, won't
You won't let me go
When life's insane
And everything's crazy
You carry me through the pain
And you won't, you won't, won't
You won't let me go


5.Need You Now

I've been trying to win
Trying to fend for myself way too long
Living in doubt, living without, I've been so alone
I know that I need you, and I know that I need you now
I was wasting my time trying to find
Something real for my soul
And now that I'm here, you're making it clear
I'm not my own
I know that I need you, and I know that I need you now

Now, this is where I stand
Here, with my outstretched hands
Now, I'm giving you everything now

I'm running in place to try and erase all that I've done
But you find a way to replace my pain with love
And I know that I need you, I know that I need you now

Now, this is where I stand
Here, with my outstretched hands
Now, I'm giving you everything now

When I'm afraid, you comfort me
When I'm ashamed, you lift me up
Yeah you lift me up

Now, this is where I stand
Here, with my outstretched hands
Now, I'm giving you everything now

Now, this is all that I want
Here, is where I belong
Now, I'm giving you everything now

When I'm afraid, you comfort me
When I'm ashamed, you show me how
I need you now


6.Show Me Life

Going on my way
Packing up today
I can't live a life with this way of thinking
Cause I know what's right
I'm gonna leave tonight
And put all the past behind me

Show me life
Bigger than I've known
I want to feel more than alive
Show me love
Beautiful and true
Change the old to new inside
Show me life

Can I fall apart
Right into your arms
Open my eyes to the road that leads beyond my heart, oh

Show me life
Bigger than I've known
I want to feel more than alive
Show me love
Beautiful and true
Change the old to new inside
Show me life

Going on my way
Packing up today
Can I fall apart
And let go in your arms

Show me life
Bigger than I've known
I want to feel more than alive
Show me love
Beautiful and true
Change the old to new inside
Show me life
Bigger than I've known
I want to feel more than alive
Show me love
Beautiful and true
Change the old to new inside
Show me life


7.Don't Wait

Today I lost a friend of mine
I never even got to say goodbye
I thought we had time to burn
But life is short you only get one turn
Oh gone before you know
Oh so make the most

We're not indestructible
Our lives, unpredictable
It can turn on a dime so now is the time
Don't wait, don't wait, don't wait
Gotta live today

So here I am wide awake
Blinded by a brand new day
Every breath given to me is a gift I want to redeem
Oh the minutes they unwind
Oh so I gotta make the time

We're not indestructible
Our lives, unpredictable
It can turn on a dime so now is the time
Don't wait, don't wait, don't wait
We're not indestructible
Our lives, unpredictable
It can turn on a dime so now is the time
Don't wait, don't wait, don't wait

In the blink of an eye
You snap and time goes by, time goes by
We'll wonder where it went
If we forget, so don't forget

We're not indestructible
Our lives, unpredictable
It can turn on a dime so now is the time
Don't wait, don't wait, don't wait
We're not indestructible
Our lives, unpredictable
It can turn on a dime so now is the time
Don't wait, don't wait, don't wait
Gotta live today


8.Where It All Begins

Twenty-nine and I'm going back to the basics
Finding love making peace having a little more patience
I want to love somebody more than myself
Cause it would do some good for my mental health
To take a backseat
Remember everything you taught me
I need you to

Show me how to feel again
I come to you with open hands
Teach me to be real again
Take me back to where it all begins

Slowing down tuning out all the noise just to hear your voice
Sounds simple enough I know but it's a daily choice
I want to love when it's costly, be quick to forgive
Run to the one who calls me to live

Show me how to feel again
I come to you with open hands
Teach me to be real again
Take me back to where it all begins

Show me how to feel again
I come to you with open hands
Teach me to be real again
Take me back to where it all begins


9.Who I Am In You

Secrets they were killing me
Pulled me under in too deep
All those shadows they don't let go easily
But everything I covered up
Is opening inside your love
Let your grace illuminate the heart in me

Oh you're bringing me to life
I'm finding who I am in you, who I am in you
Oh, you're changing me inside
And I'm finding who I am in you, who I am in you

Breathe your breath into my soul
Let my heart beat with your own
I need your mercy even when it hurts
Please shine on me
Shine on me

Oh you're bringing me to life
I'm finding who I am in you, who I am in you
Oh, you're changing me inside
And I'm finding who I am in you, who I am in you

And if there's anything I try to hide
I pray that you would bring it to the light
Strip away the lies if I pretend
Teach me how to be a child again
Resting in your arms, resting in your arms
And I can feel your love changing me

Oh you're bringing me to life
I'm finding who I am in you, who I am in you
Oh, I finally realize
That I'm finding who I am in you, who I am in you


10.This Is My Story

This is not another song about the reasons I am stressed
This is not a melody to get the feelings off my chest
This is not a pop song written for the radio
These are just my thoughts and what I'm praying for

If this is my story, if this is my song
Then I want to be a part of something beautiful
If this is my journey, then show me your road
Wherever you lead me in this world I want to go

There's just too many times I only think of me
Cause I get so consumed with my opportunities
When my last breath brings me to the feet of God
I want to hear him say I lived for his glory

If this is my story, if this is my song
Then I want to be a part of something beautiful
If this is my journey, then show me your road
Wherever you lead me in this world I want to go

Colors paint the evening sky
The sun is shining giving light
Stars light up the atmosphere
But we're the reason God came here

We are his story, we are his song
A beautiful melody that shows the world his love
When we're on this journey, when we're on this road
We are a part of the greatest story ever told

We are his story, we are his song
A beautiful melody that shows the world his love
When we're on this journey, when we're on this road
We are a part of the greatest story ever told
