| I’ve got shadows in hiding
|
| Way down inside me
|
| Sometimes they work to the surface
|
| In just the right lighting
|
| You can see them beside me
|
| Well I swear, I don’t let 'em out on purpose
|
| Excuse me from the table
|
| It’s just I’m not able
|
| To swallow my throat song here tonight
|
| Like something is broken
|
| Don’t mind my choking
|
| On the words I should never have thought
|
| Please forgive me
|
| For the sinner I am
|
| Treat me like a child
|
| As I’m half a man
|
| But please forgive me
|
| I stepped on the line in the sand
|
| Now I’m trying just as hard as I can
|
| I’ve got darkness below me
|
| I need you to show me
|
| The way that I should behave
|
| I been in my closet
|
| I shut it and locked it
|
| Let me out, give me my chain, I’ll be your slave
|
| I’ve got rooms full of questions
|
| Quite a collection
|
| But answers, I have only a few
|
| Well, I could use your help
|
| Clearing off these shelves
|
| And maybe find just a little bit of truth
|
| Please forgive me
|
| For the sinner I am
|
| Treat me like a child
|
| As I’m half a man
|
| But please forgive me
|
| I stepped on the line in the sand
|
| Now I’m trying just as hard as I can
|
| Oh, I’m trying just as hard as I can
|
| Lord, I’m trying just as hard as I can |
