lyrics

And these are wicked scars,
But I know I’ll be alright.
As long as I can stop the bleeding.
And it’s a bitter world,
But I know that I’ll get by.
As long as I can find a reason.

I know I haven’t been myself
And I’m sorry,
But life got in the way.
The future holds a fear I can’t explain.
And I know I haven’t been what you expected,
So I’ll let you down again.
I’d rather drown before you save me.

And these are wicked scars,
But I know I’ll be alright.
As long as I can stop the bleeding.
And it’s a bitter world,
But I know that I’ll get by.
As long as I can find a reason.

I thought I’d give you all I am,
Though I worried
That you didn’t feel the same.
So I began to tell myself I was insane.
And I thought that I had put it all behind me,
But I sometimes feel the pain.
And it tears at every reason I have made.

And these are wicked scars,
But I know I’ll be alright.
As long as I can stop the bleeding.
And it’s a bitter world,
But I know that I’ll get by.
As long as I can find a reason.

(Can find a reason)
(Can find a reason)
(Can find a reason)
(Can find a reason)

I feel I shouldn’t trust my eyes,
They witness things that terrorize my mind,
And when I’m broken down
I’ll hide behind this cowardly disguise,

To find out what I have been reaching for
Is not what it is glamorized,
Perhaps I’ll learn from every time
I run out to that bridge side.

But I feel your grace relentless,
I can feel you in my bones.
Though I still ran to that empty well
To face my fate alone.

‘Cause I ready,
To write the epilogue to this tragedy.
But when I was rehearsing,
You were surging to find worth in me.

So maybe, this isn’t where it ends.
Maybe I can find a reason
To pull my mind out of that death again.

Maybe I can be stronger
Than I have been before,
‘Cause it seems that all I’m running from
Could be all that I’ve searched for.

Worth.
You built me on purpose,
So when I feel worthless,
I’ll rehearse your verses.

And everything that is versus what You are
I will deter it.
And when I feel I’m dying
I’ll know you’re not done your work yet.

And when I feel I’m dying
I’ll know you’re not done your work yet.
And when I feel I’m dying
I’ll know you’re not done your work yet.
And when I feel I’m dying
I’ll know you’re not done your work yet.

So captivate me.
Let me see you more clearly.
Tear apart this veil
And unveil your will,
Brand it on my heart before me.

Drag me through the stones
Until I need you more
Than I have ever needed anyone
Or anything this world could give me.

Keep my mind to its design
That you have placed within me.
Still my heart and cure it
Of its dark insanity.

Set my path from it’s past
And lead it to your glory.
Let this broken person see your hope
Shine through a broken story.

You came for us though you knew
We’d curse your very purpose.
You came face to face with death
And you made him forfeit.

You chose to hang upon a tree,
For every single soul that
Said that you were nothing,
Though you still said we were worth it.

So maybe I’ll find my purpose
In these worthy words I read.
And maybe my prayers are more
Than empty cries to skies and seas.

And maybe my thoughts are more convicting
Than they used to seem.
‘Cause every time I bleed
I’ll think of every reason that you chose
To bleed for me.

‘Cause every time I bleed
I’ll think of every reason that you chose
To bleed for me.
‘Cause every time I bleed
I’ll think of every reason that you chose
To bleed for me.
‘Cause every time I bleed
I’ll think of every reason that you chose
To bleed for me.
