Face in the Mirror
I'm starting to hate the face in the mirror
I'm starting to wish it wasn't mine
It's a quarter after two and I am lying
Awake in the bed I've made
Wrapped up in the sheets of my mistakes
Hiding behind these well-posed photos
Terrified that someone will find out
I wanna be more but I'm still hollow
My kingdom built on lies
Falling on my hands and knees
I need you, Jesus, to show me who I am
More than this reef-ridden shipwreck soul
Caught up in my self affliction, my false religion
Arms nailed to my sides
I need you to save me from what I've become
How many times will I play the victim
Trying to pretend it's not my fault?
But I know the taste of what's forbidden
It pulls me in even now
Death sits sweetly on your tongue
Break open my cage of self-preservation
Cut the locks that bind my soul
Set me adrift in the open water
The end of me is where I begin
Falling on my hands and knees
I need you, Jesus, to show me who I am
More than this reef-ridden shipwreck soul
You cry out over me, "Forgiven!"
You're my whole religion
Arms are stretched out wide
To save me, O save me, from what I've become
Oh, from what I've become
Oh, from what I've become
Falling on my hands and knees
I need you, Jesus, to show me who I am
More than this reef-ridden shipwreck soul
You cry out over me, "Forgiven!"
You're my whole religion
Arms are stretched out wide
To save me, O save me
To save me, O save me
To save me, O save me
