Falling In and Out of Favor   Run Time: 5:17

Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI)

if you're standing without countenance out in the hungering dark
you're stuck inside this compound of your twisted little heart
all your phantoms finally fess up and reveal their true source
all your life you're begging change outside the liquor store

you're thirsty very thirsty although your cup is brimming
starving yes you're starving although your plate is full
we've been earning and slaving scratching and saving but never really gaining on it
brother i have seen my dread condition

oh when i told you so i'm used to this it's so cold
oh see you later i'm falling in and out of favor
ninety-nine of hard labor i'm falling in and out of favor
oh my blessed Savior i'm falling in and out

if you're stuck out on the ledge and at the end of your rope
the rain is coming down in sheets soaked your last match of hope
no alibis left upon this tongue not a single solitary one
i'm falling off these high cliffs right into your arms

we will crawl through this veil of tears that our own hands have made
we will run through the fire hey we will remain unscathed
draw the water of life from the Rock of our salvation
lay down in those sweet dreams wait for all this unfinished business

Did You Know?

This was a demo for Audible Sigh, but did not make the final cut.

Appeared On…
