Some Great Lyrics

Most people think that Family Force 5 is just a bunch of goof-offs who call themselves Chrstians, and even though a majority of their songs may support that argument, they do have some great songs that reflect their faith. I decided I wanted to post the lyrics to some of them:

Replace Me

My batteries died sometime ago
Got a heart shaped box where they must go
Corrosions building everyday
My flesh is leading me astray
That's why I started to decay
and I will slowly rot away
but I can't feel that anyway

This heart it wants to beat
These lungs they want to breathe
These eyes they want to see
Got a mouth that wants to sing

Desperation needing You
Every last breath I scream for You
Shatter me to a million pieces
Make me new

Crush me, tear me, break me, mold me
Make me what You want me to be
I am Your's and for You to use
So take and replace me with You

Needing more than just a jump start to get me through
My disconnection is now the issue...

I miss my 1st love bad and its driving me mad
Just like a mixed up crazy person out of his head
Its been a long, long time I've been on the decline
I do an about face so I can be replaced. (180)

This heart it wants to beat
These lungs they want to breathe
These eyes they want to see
Got a mouth that wants to sing

Desperation needing You
Every last breath I scream for You
Shatter me to a million pieces
Make me new
Crush me, tear me, break me, mold me
Make me what You want me to beI am Your's and for You to use
So take and replace me with You

Never Let Me Go

Time don't wait for no one
Leaving you broken
Especially when you're under the gun
Makes things complicated
Leaving your jaded toward
Everything that's under the sun

Tick Tock Tick Tock, goes the clock
Tick Tock Tick Tock, till I drop
But time don't phase me, not a bit
'Cause I give mine to You, All of it
Death can't shake me, from Your hand
Me minus You equals, not a chance
It's good to know that, when I go
You'll never ever let me
Never ever let me
Never ever let me
Never ever let me
Never ever let me
Never ever let me
Never ever let me
Never ever let me
Never ever let me go

I want some face to face
Just give me that full embrace
What did I hear You say?
That You will never ever let me go
I'll never know
When it's my time to go
One thing I know for sure
That You will never ever let me go
Never let me go

The mind is a ticking time bomb
Itching to go off
Impatiently it waits in the calm
Bang, it might be over
In one little moment
before you know it,
It's all gone

Tick tock tick tock, Goes the clock
Tick tock tick tock, gonna pop
It's good to know that, when it goes
You'll never ever let me
Never ever let me
Never ever let me
Never ever let me
Never ever let me go

I want some face to face
Just give me that full embrace
What did I hear You say?That You will never ever let me go
I'll never know
When it's my time to go
One thing I know for sure
That You will never ever let me go
Never let me go

One thing I'll never know
The time and place that I will go
Death can't shake me from Your hand

You never let me go
Why do You never ever never ever let me go?
You Never let me go
I know You'll never ever never ever let me go

I want some face to face
Just give me that full embrace
What did I hear You say?
That You will never ever let me go
I'll never know When it's my time to go
One thing I know for sure
That You will never ever let me go
Never let me go

Face Down (My personal favorite of theirs right now)

I shut my eyes in search of sleep
Tossed and turned and hoped for dreams
Awakened by a voice that was so clear
It felt so near to me

I want Your love I need Your touch
I've been missing You so much
I reach out for Your hand,
And now it feels like I am falling

Down, down, down
Till I kiss the ground, ground, ground

Fall down with my face down
Giving up me, myself, and I
It's a bittersweet taste to swallow my pride now

Face down is where I stay now
If You see me standing up again
just knock me back down so I can live
Face down

I'm on my face again
It's where I should have been
It brings me back to where I found You
Where I first fell for You

No more depending on myself
Its You and me and no one else
You stretch out Your hand
and now it feels like I'm falling into
Love, Love, Love
Can't get enough of Love

Fall down with my face down
Giving up me, myself, and I
It's a bittersweet taste to swallow my pride now

Face down is where I stay now
If You see me standing up again
just knock me back down so I can live
Face down

I've got to live face down


These are actually some of my favorite songs that FF5 has. Who all has heard these ones and likes them? I hope I have may shown some people that Family Force 5 does have some good songs though.

Those are good songs, I like the ones that we have, Replace Me and Never Let Me Go. That aside, you stole my idea, I was just about to post the lyrics, and then you went along and posted them, thanks. jk.

I love you, Sugie. :-) HAHA

Idk I haven't heard the band, but the lyrics are really cool. I guess you were right about them having some really cool songs.

I've never heard any of them actually. I like them all a lot because some songs like that can go either way, to a love life or to God. These are pointed straight to God. I'm gonna have to listen to them! Family Force 5 rocked before, but even more so now!
