05. The Unwinding Cable Car

Cities
by Anberlin



 

Emotive unstable you’re like an unwinding cable car
Listening for voices, but it’s the choices that make us who we are
Go your own way, even seasons have changed just burn those new leaves over
So self-absorbed you’ve seemed to ignore the prayers that have already come about

This is the correlation of salvation and love
(Don’t drop your arms)
Don’t drop your arms, I’ll guard your heart
With quiet words I’ll lead you in

Backing away from the problem of pain you never had a home
You’ve been misguided, you’re hiding in shadows for so very long
Don’t you believe that you’ve been deceived that you’re no better than…
The hair in your eyes, it never disguised what you’re really thinking of

This is the correlation of salvation and love
(Don’t drop your arms)
Don’t drop your arms, I’ll guard your heart
With quiet words I’ll lead you in

You’re so brilliant, don’t soon forget
You’re so brilliant, grace marked your heart
You’re so brilliant (This is the correlation)
Don’t soon forget (Between salvation and love, don’t drop your arms)
You’re so brilliant (I’ll guard your heart)
Grace marked your heart (With quiet words I’ll lead you in and out of the dark)

This is the correlation of salvation and love
Don’t drop your arms, I’ll guard your heart
With quiet words I’ll lead you in

(Christian/Milligan)

Behind the Song:
'This personal song is about those people who do not see how truly amazing they really are, they seem to give up before they see what life is about to show them. (Exodus 17). I can remember running down the street lamp lit hill on Pine street in Seattle after I wrote the song, exhilarated with how it turned out.' - Stephen Christian
