I heard a voice through the discord
A deluge of passersby
I saw one gaze frozen in time
Watching me passing by

I swear I'll know your face in the crowd
And I'll hear your voice so loud
When you're whispering

Hey unfaithful I will teach you
To be stronger
Hey ungraceful I will teach you
To forgive one another

Here's my kiss to betray
Desperate to brush the lips of grace
Do you feel hollow when you think of how I lied?

Oh sweet angel of mercy
With your grace like the morning
Wrap your loving arms around me
Oh sweet angel of mercy
With your grace like the morning
Wrap your loving arms around me

Hey unfaithful I will teach you
To be stronger
Hey ungraceful I will teach you
To forgive one another

Hey unfaithful I will teach you
To be stronger
Hey unloving
I will love you
And will love you

Jesus I'm ready to come home
I'm ready to come
Jesus I'm ready to come home
Unfaithful
Ungraceful
And unloving
I will love you

Some will sea, forgiveness, others escape, underOATH.-

Maybe he'll change
Maybe things will get better
Maybe it would be nice
If he wouldn't always put you down
Maybe things will work out
But maybe they'll never
And I think that you've given him
The benefit of the doubt

Chorus:
You need that boy like a bowling ball dropped on your head
Which means not at all
You have too much to give to live to waste your time on him
You need that boy like a bowling ball dropped on your head
Which means not at all
You have too much to give to live to waste your time on him

Maybe he'll change
If you could be better
But maybe it's not your fault
He's checking out the waitress now
But someday you'll change
One day you're stronger
And you will have changed enough
And it's time to get out

Chorus

You have too much to give to live to waste your time on him

Chorus

 

Bowling Ball, Superchick.-

Let it all out (get it all out)
Rip it out, remove it
Don't be alarmed when the wound begins to bleed
Cuz we're so scared to find out (what this life's all about)
So scared we're gonna lose it
And knowing all along that's exactly what we need

And today I'll trust you with the confidence
of a man who's never known defeat
But tomorrow upon hearing what I did,
I'll stare at you in disbelief
Oh inconsistent me! ...crying out for consistency

And You said, "I know that this will hurt,
but if I don't break your heart, things will just get worse.
If the burden seems too much to bear,
remember...
The end will justify the pain it took to get us there."

And I'll let it be known (times I have shown)
Signs of all my weakness
But somewhere in me, there is strength

And You'd promise me, that You believe
In time I will defeat this
'cuz somewhere in me there is strength

And today I'll trust you with the confidence
of a man who's never known defeat
I'll try my best to just forget that that man isn't me

And You said, "I know that this will hurt,
but if I don't break your heart, things will just get worse.
If the burden seems too much to bear,
remember...
The end will justify the pain it took to get us there."

Reach out to me, make my heart brand new
Every beat will be for You...for You...

And you know, and you know
When You touched my heavy heart, you made it light.

Dec. 15, 2005 — U.S. archaeologists have discovered the "Sistine Chapel" of the Maya civilization — a finely painted, well preserved mural depicting the Maya creation myth and the crowning of a king.

Unearthed inside a ruined pyramid in the Guatemalan jungle near the ancient Maya city of San Bartolo, the 100 B.C painting is the oldest intact mural ever found in Meso-America.

The 30- by three-foot painting stood on the western wall of a room attached to the pyramid, said archaeologist William Saturno, of the University of New Hampshire and the Harvard Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology.

Saturno made " the discovery of a lifetime" in 2001 by chance. To seek refuge from the tropical heat, he ducked into a looters' trench cut into a jungle-covered pyramid.

As he shone his flashlight on the walls, he was astonished.

"In Western terms, it's like knowing only modern art and then stumbling on a Michelangelo or a Leonardo," Saturno told a press conference.

The greyish blue, orange, yellow, pink and flesh tone colors were so well preserved that they looked as though "they could have been painted yesterday," Saturno said.

The discovery was kept secret so that the site and the mural could be further studied.

Saturno realized that the room's other walls had been demolished and used for fill.

It took two years to excavate the west wall, which lay below 50 feet of rubble, helping support the pyramid

The mural tells a story of creation similar to one depicted in the so-called Dresden Codex, a 13th century Maya book.

The first part of the painting shows four deities, all variations of the son of the maize god. The deities provide a blood sacrifice and an offering in four directions.

Standing in the water with a fish, the first deity represents the watery underworld.

The second deity is depicted with a deer, to symbolize the land, the third floats in the air, offering a turkey to establish the sky. The fourth deity finally stands in a field of flowers, establishing paradise.

Another section shows the Maize god crowning himself king upon a wooden scaffold. The final section traces the god's birth, death and resurrection, with the last scene showing the historic coronation of a Maya king.

"This is almost a Maya 'Book of Genesis.' It explains the origins of ritual, bloodletting, even kingly accession, all in terms of a primordial ruler who had many aspects of the Maize god. A staggering, important find," Stephen Houston, an expert on Maya archaeology and writing at Brown University, told Discovery News.

The mural also features a highly developed hieroglyphic script, only some of which scholars can read.

David Stuart, Schele Professor of Mesoamerican Art and Writing at the University of Texas at Austin, who is working on deciphering the glyphs, said the writing probably consists of captions for the figures they accompany.

The Maya dominated southern Mexico and parts of Central America for some 1,500 years, until the Spanish conquered them 500 years ago.

Many archeologists have argued that they did not reach full-blown civilization until 300 A.D., the beginning of the Classic Maya era.

The newly found mural undermines that theory and opens "a window into the very origins of Maya civilisation," Saturno said.

Archaeologist Francisco Estrada-Belli of Vanderbilt University agreed.

"The mural clearly shows that the Maya by 100 B.C. had reached a high level of sophistication. We have to accept that the term 'Preclassic period' used by archaeologists is a misnomer. It should be instead something like 'First Classic Maya period' (400 B.C.-300 A.D.) followed by a 'Second Classic period' (300-900 A.D.)," Estrada-Belli told Discovery News.

They won't see the fire you have lit inside of me.
They look up to the stars and wonder where you might be.
They look up
Without realizing they're standing in the palm of your hand.
I can't explain or understand.
I just love you.

It's common knowledge that; you've been dead for a while.
It's well known that the cross is only a burden with pains and trials.
But thinking how come my shoes are so light,
how come I can walk for miles?
And still, just love you?

So I think I'll stay, caught up in silent prayer,
cause I believe in silence.
Our hearts speak the same words.
So why don't we just walk along the shoreline with our silent song?
Cause I believe in silence.
Our hearts speak the same words, the same words.

We have to prove that our love is real, over and over again.
But let them think what they want cause I know It'll never end.
Cause I know when it began.
And my heart still pumps twice as fast whenever you walk by.
Cause I still love you.

So I think I'll stay, caught up in silent prayer,
cause I believe in silence.
Our hearts speak the same words.
So why don't we just walk along the shoreline with our silent song?
Cause I believe in silence.
Our hearts speak the same words, the same words.
