| I keep trying to find a life
|
| On my own, apart from you
|
| I am the king of excuses
|
| I’ve got one for every selfish thing I do What’s going on inside of me?
|
| I despise my own behavior
|
| This only serves to confirm my suspicions
|
| That I’m still a man in need of a savior
|
| (chorus)
|
| I wanna be in the light
|
| As you are in the light
|
| I wanna shine like the stars in the heavens
|
| Oh, lord be my light and be my salvation
|
| Cause all I want is to be in the light
|
| All I want is to be in the light
|
| The disease of self runs through my blood
|
| It’s a cancer fatal to my soul
|
| Every attempt on my behalf has failed
|
| To bring this sickness under control
|
| Tell me, what’s going on inside of me?
|
| I despise my own behavior
|
| This only serves to confirm my suspicions
|
| That I’m still a man in need of a savior
|
| (repeat chorus)
|
| Honesty becomes me The secrets that did run me Pride has no position
|
| The fame that once did cover me Has been sentenced to this earth
|
| Tell me, what’s going on inside of me?
|
| I despise my own behavior
|
| This only serves to confirm my suspicions
|
| That I’m still a man in need of a savior
|
| (repeat chorus 2x) |
