Faithfully remain Lyrics
I learned to say goodbye
to say goodbye too young.
I learned to duck from words
like bullets from a gun.
How long can you pray?
How long can you pray
and still not see a change?
I faithfully remain. I faithfully remain.
Somethings, somethings you have to let be lost.
Some battles some battles you have to leave unfought.
Then the truth just wastes away
in all we dare not say.
And then all we can't explain.
But I faithfully remain. I faithfully remain.
Now I'm afraid once again.
Once again it has come to this.
When it all goes dark nothing stays the same.
Now I'm only what I miss.
And my memories they turn to tears.
Oh they turn to fire, blood, and pain.
And I, I faithfully remain. I faithfully remain.
And I, I faithfully remain. I faithfully remain.
I faithfully remain.
to say goodbye too young.
I learned to duck from words
like bullets from a gun.
How long can you pray
and still not see a change?
I faithfully remain. I faithfully remain.
Some battles some battles you have to leave unfought.
in all we dare not say.
And then all we can't explain.
But I faithfully remain. I faithfully remain.
Once again it has come to this.
When it all goes dark nothing stays the same.
Now I'm only what I miss.
Oh they turn to fire, blood, and pain.
And I, I faithfully remain. I faithfully remain.
And I, I faithfully remain. I faithfully remain.
I faithfully remain.

More Ben Harper and Relentless7
Number with no name
Lay there and hate me
Shimmer and shine
Why must you always dress in black?
The word suicide

this is a great song. Ben Harper is absolutely amazing. I think in this song no matter how hard life gets, he will still be faithful to God and his faith.
This song is about the loss of Ben's close friend, Heath Ledger. About having to say goodbye too young, having to listen to hurtful words and untruths from the media, how friends can't defend him or explain because a battle with the media is impossible to win ... so the truth wastes away.
And it's about letting go, but how Ben will always remain a faithful friend.
