The shadows take place inside of my disgrace
you left me standing in this one dark place
its shallow, its cold its full of dark spots
take me out of this not so good space
help me see your beautiful face.
I have fallen to my knee's so many times
why have you left me so far behind
I know I have sinned, but confessed to you my pain,
I told you how I messed up again and again
you seem so far, the shadows keep coming in
take my hand lead me within,
No matter how much I cry and fall
you seem so far and so small,
Others feel you, they see you and rejoice
whats the problem within me still
all I want is to see your hand
to be like you and go to other lands,
Why not speak inside my heart
help me see your not that far
help me know you have taken my hand
to lead me out of this dark, dark land.
