|
Everything that I despise |
|
Consumes me when I close my eyes. |
|
I don't know if I can change the way I feel. |
|
Despite the light that you have shone |
|
The dark has become what I know. |
|
I am fighting to find my way out of it |
|
I am trying so hard to forget |
|
This constant aching feeling that stirs inside my chest. |
|
The fear in me always drags me down. |
|
The guilt I feel will not let me up again; I am crushed by the weight. |
|
I was younger then; careless and innocent. |
|
I never thought my words could mean so much |
|
I am older now; I should be screaming out. |
|
So why is it that I keep my mouth shut? |
|
Why do I try so hard to forget |
|
The forgiveness that is in your hands, and the mercy in your words? |
|
You are calling me to seek You and find rest |
|
And leave behind the emptiness that holds me in the dark; |
|
That holds me in the dark |
|
I hope you can hear me... |
|
I'll keep singing this song |
|
Even if there's no air left and dirt fills up these lungs |
|
Please keep the lights on |
|
I'm trying to make it home |
|
The sun is sinking |
|
But I won't go down with it. |
