lyrics

I’m getting sick of waking up with no one in my bed
Writing down what’s in my heart just to get out of my head
I go to the coffeehouse, pray I don’t see someone I know
I don’t want them to pity me for all the time I spend alone

And I’ve been trying to find my peace
But nothing feels like home

And this is the place I’m most afraid of
But this is where I always am

I’m getting sick of numbness, it’s so hard to feel a thing
Like I might as well be gone, like there’s nothing left to sing
I cling to every helper who surrounds me on my way
Don’t leave me on my own, don’t let me lead me astray

But the dread will fill my bones
When there’s nothing left to say

And this is the place I’m most afraid of
But this is where I always am
Jesus, when Your own are weeping in the dark
Why do You keep them in this foreign land?

You know what it’s like
To reach out
With a God-forsaken hand
That’s a pain that I
Will never know about
So I know You that you must understand
That’s a love I
Will never be without
Lord, make me alone till I love again

Be still...
