I never hide the way I feel
but I only share'em with someone real
I guess that's why I'm here talk'n to you
Because you know all that's true
I pray and I pray I pray and pray
You keep turn'n away and away away
I show you everything from my reflection
All I get in return is your rejection
Everyone got it wrong think'n I'm
Love sick from a break up it's just make up
I don't miss the sex I can get the same
from a whore they just can't see the
spiritual war
I need the affection and I keep look'n for
You in everyone else but you can't be found
Because you left me here on my own
And I guess It's my fault you left me alone
I admit my hands are stained with sin and
I've called on you to let you in
The truth is you've never knocked so
Now my door is locked
Seeing you hanging on a cross just tears
Me apart so why am I so dark in the heart
These people show'n scripture is
Just words on page if
You're not in it it's just an act on a stage
There's too much fake faces surround'n me
I can't even breathe without 'em hound'n me
Satan is attack'n where is your protection
I'll die before wearing six six six
But I thought you had my six
Everyone who had my back was hold'n
A knife and you expect me to trust you with my life
When I look around all I see is paths to the sea
I'm always tempted to see where it leads
Take a swim as far as I can go with no return
How long before it overtakes me
Exactly where are you to stop me
Maybe there you'll answer me
All these fake posers say'n God said this and God said that
Never heard anything other than what's
Under their hats
I hope it makes them cringe the way
I talk to you but I'm not the one
That's hiding the truth
You're the core to my trust issues
Everything I'll never have I've given to you
You just take and take and take
I've searched and all I've found
Was fake and fake and fake
When will you take me home
I'm so tired of being alone
Maybe you're not finished with the
Work you've started in me
But I can't take the pain it takes to
Bring me to my knees
I can pray until everything is new
But I can't even get a hey from you
Yeah I put these words on a page just
To show these fake posers what it's like to
Be real today
Yet they won't even care because after all they're only your heirs
I act out for your attention like the
Father I never had you only give
You're rejection
Perhaps the next time I'm at the sea I'll finally see if you're truly watching me
