hollowed out
Winter is colder when I’m away from you
Sitting at dinner with a fork and no spoon
Forgetting existence, forgetting my name
It’s the result of my deafening, sharpening shame
I swallow a camel but scream at a gnat
I’ve been walking around with a corpse on my back
And when it’s all over I’ll sit and I’ll bleed
Your forgiveness is deeper than I’ll ever see
Oh You're here with me
There’s no one else I can see
And when Your arms do embrace
I fall on the ground while it stares at my face
Through the boards I see You glowing brightly
Lifting my body, awakening lightly
My existence …it’s in Your hands.
I’m walking half-hearted, I seem alright
But my heart is beating like it’s stuck on a knife
Everyone sees me and envies, but why?
I’m just a sinner who needs a plank out of my eye
Sweetly I’m broken when I enter Your courts
While I’m listening and talking to You of all sorts
Perhaps I’m misreading what Your love is about
With this world that is dying to let it all out
Oh You're here with me
There’s no one else I can see
And when Your arms do embrace
I fall on the ground while it stares at my face
Through the boards I see You glowing brightly
Lifting my body, awakening lightly
My existence …it’s in Your hands.
Oh You're here with me
There’s no one else I can see
And when Your arms do embrace
I fall on the ground while it stares at my face
Through the boards I see You glowing brightly
Lifting my body, awakening lightly
My existence …it’s in Your hands.
