Denial

I\'m struggling to understand, Lord,
As I stand in front of you,
Chest wide open for you to see,
Won\'t you wash me, free?
I can\'t feel you here by my side,
And I\'m just a son who\'s scared,
could you give me some closure tonight?

I\'ve denied myself to you,
I\'ve denied my soul for you,
I\'ve denied and I\'m a sinner.

I\'ve fallen in a pit so deep,
that I fear you cannot reach,
Cause I don\'t believe in you,
But I fall into your arms every night,
Hoping you\'re there to save me,
But I don\'t feel your breath on my skin.

I\'ve denied myself to you,
I\'ve denied my soul for you,
I\'ve denied and I\'m a sinner.

I\'m a bad son, Father,
I\'ve done bad things to you,
I\'m not feeling the love you promised,
And it\'s scaring me to death,
I\'m folding into a breathless form,
Drown me, Lord, in all my sins I bathe.

I\'ve denied myself of you,
I\'ve denied my soul for your love,
I\'ve denied and I\'m too proud for you.
