I'll be awake for eighty years
More so asleep for twenty-one
Like a child
fighting fears
Who watched his nerves come undone
Like the vultures ache for
air
Even bones beneath the skin
I thirst for who you are
To see your
fearless sea for all that is
Rediscover the bones that I've hid
Oh God, what
have I done?
To crawl and feel your mercy course through my veins
Set a path
for who's weak and ashamed
Love me for who I am and who I've been
Are there
any fearless men
Who search for answers in the dark?
Who climb far beyond
their thoughts
With hopes to finish what they start
Like the vultures ache
for air
Even skin between their teeth
I'm starved to say at the least
Cut
these wrists, tie my hands
If I could, I'd shed my skin
Oh God, will you love
me for who I am?
More so asleep for twenty-one
Like a child
fighting fears
Who watched his nerves come undone
Like the vultures ache for
air
Even bones beneath the skin
I thirst for who you are
To see your
fearless sea for all that is
Rediscover the bones that I've hid
Oh God, what
have I done?
To crawl and feel your mercy course through my veins
Set a path
for who's weak and ashamed
Love me for who I am and who I've been
Are there
any fearless men
Who search for answers in the dark?
Who climb far beyond
their thoughts
With hopes to finish what they start
Like the vultures ache
for air
Even skin between their teeth
I'm starved to say at the least
Cut
these wrists, tie my hands
If I could, I'd shed my skin
Oh God, will you love
me for who I am?
