Cry For You |
This thorn in my flesh |
Is the only thing I got left |
And it’s so hard to confess |
When everybody thinks you’re perfect |
But I cry for you |
If you feel it too |
And I’ll cry for you |
If you show how to lose |
The elephants in the room |
Take it away, I beg you, take it all away |
The pain it causes, it makes me wish I could fade away |
If they knew what you knew, they’d probably shun me |
I’m surprised you know it all and you love me |
I know I break your heart |
Body of death, give me rest if my heart stops |
Then it don’t hurt no more, can’t get worse no more |
Can’t pursue all these desires, it ain’t cursed no more |
No more lies about my worth no more |
I understand the thoughts of suicide that do reside |
But when I stop and think about my family, I feel new inside |
I promised I would die a thousand deaths 'fore I cause them any pain |
But somehow I end up killing everything |
I cry for you |
If you feel a dark, twisted, heart-wrenching, hate-to-see-your-own-reflection |
Praying for an intervention, feeling guilt and feeling shame |
I just call on Jesus name |
Praying daily, can you take away this pain? |
Take the thorn away |
Still, it remains, I |
Feel the same, I |
Know that I’m here, but |
Still feel insane |
Satan would love to see me give up and throw up my hands |
He say I’m guilty but You say I’m clean |
This thorn in my flesh |
Is the only thing I got left |
And it’s so hard to confess |
When everybody thinks you’re perfect |
But I cry for you |
If you feel it too |
And I’ll cry for you |
If you show how to lose |
The elephants in the room |
Yeah, Sunday morning, or Sunday mourning? |
I woke up dead inside from all the hurt I saw before me |
Evil tryna take away my testimony |
Starin' at my phone, feelin' like a phony |
Oh, I cry for you, I would die for you |
To escape the pain I feel from all that I’ve been through |
I feel it in my soul and in my chest |
Take away this ugly thorn inside my flesh |
Give me death |
But grace is sufficient to start my mission |
I’m so far from perfect, can’t believe they listen |
But hear a broken man 'til your healin' happens |
And hear a liar tell you truth to bring you gladness |
I could never boast in my accomplishments |
I can only hope in God with confidence |
Opposite of optimist, U and I are consonants |
Broken all the vowels, deservin' of every consequence |
Will you cry for me, or will you judge me? |
Will you throw stones at my head, or will you love me? |
I could never be everything that you wanna see |
But crooked sticks draw straight lines, just look at me |
(But crooked sticks draw straight lines, just look at me) |
This thorn in my flesh |
Is the only thing I got left |
And it’s so hard to confess |
When everybody thinks you’re perfect |
But I cry for you |
If you feel it too |
And I’ll cry for you |
If you show how to lose |
The elephants in the room |
