lyrics

I am broken tossed and turned around
Feeling I was not meant to be found
A light that barely flickers in the darkness that I've come to call my "home"
And the grey skies ever present multiplied when she left me and my heart alone

These days, are tearing me apart
And every thought that creeps in, feeds the dark
Are you out there in the shadows, with a lantern that can save my heart?

Cold surrounds my lips and I can't breathe
Wondering why you'd do this all to me?
Doubting all the stories of the grace and love that I had thought I'd known
Like an opposite Ezekiel, I feel my heart of flesh has turned to stone

These days, I'm bleeding out too much
The wounds I have make me just shrivel up
Is that light there in the distance? did I miss it? Should I give up?

I was crying in the dark I felt your hands and touched your scars
You told me that I'll see your plan for me in time
The anguish and the pain I feel, You walked it all, Your love is real
The word in flesh made lights begin to shine

These days, though I'm broken, I will rest
In the grace of Jesus for my fallen flesh
And with the lantern that He gave to me I know
That when I take my first step I'll surely go
Outside this bitter cave of memories that I once called my "home"
