lyrics

I’m a fading flame
I can’t say when I began to dim
Born to know the truth
God is not gonna give up on me yet

I’ve been reaching out my hands
In the dark for far too long
Hoping I could feel my way
To where my heart belongs

I’ve made no quiet place
Where I can hang my coat
And let myself be known
Honest and exposed

Who can know the truth?
I can only guess we’re half-awake
Walking in a dream
And it scares me half to death
To think I’m right

There’s just too much trouble
Breaking ground beneath my feet
To think that I could keep on walking
And never know defeat

Come inside with me
We’ll hang up our coats
Let ourselves be known
Honest and exposed

I’ve been reaching out my hands
In the dark for far too long
Hoping I could feel my way
To where my heart belongs

Come inside with me
We’ll hang up our coats
Let ourselves be known
Honest and exposed
