lyrics

In a moment of honesty, showing transparently
My flaws are too real to deny
Horrified and reeling, flee from the light
Flee to the darkness, my scars try to hide
A writhing mess, a broken soul
Covered in the routines I act make me whole
Pretend nothing moves me, nothing is wrong
But just beneath the surface, I know

Heart in my hands, I’ve wandered and strayed
Held it to the winds and watched it decay
Drunk from a fountain of carnal desire
Rejected joy for the cruel comfort of mire
Lord let me see, let me see and be seen
Seen without fronts, veneers, disguises
I long to be seen and known as I am
To uncover my scars, the black soul I’ve been hiding

I cannot hide though I try
I cannot hide from the Lord at my side
All of the apathy, excuses I’ve used
I don’t want to want them, I want Spirit and Truth

Soli Deo Gloria
Forevermore
Soli Deo Gloria
Nothing shall ever come before
