Here I am confessing again

I know I’ve let You down,

I’ve said it a thousand times

Never again starts now.

I’ve slept through so many days

I’ve wasted so much time,

Can’t solve it with a song

Can’t fix it with a rhyme.

So I’ll try

To be honest with myself again

But I can feel just so uncomfortable in my skin.

Know you told me that you loved me,

But I don’t remember when

Oh oh.

Feel like I was so much wiser

When I was seventeen

Saw the world in just two shades,

Didn’t stand in the in-between.

If the man I was back then

Saw who I am right now,

I wonder if he’d be disappointed

In how he would turn out.

So I’ll try

To be honest with myself again

But I can feel just so uncomfortable in my skin.

Know you told me that you loved me,

But I don’t remember when

Oh oh.

But I hear you say

Child, stop listening to yourself so much,

I have made you more than worthy of my love.

You are fearfully and wonderfully made,

And that’s enough

Oh oh.

Oh child, if you could see yourself the way that I do

You’d see I made you in my image

And my works not through.

Oh, we’ll dance on this disappointment,

In a world made new

Oh oh.

I know your heart is tired

The floods and the fire,

Can make this all seem too far gone.

Oh I know your heart is broken

But the last word’s not spoken,

The best is still yet to come.
