Let's talk about the way things were

Let's talk about the way things should be

I think I'm certain

But I'm not so sure

If I'll deliver what's expected of me

Let's make believe we're all okay

You better just pretend

We're doing better

Than we've ever been

I think it's safe to say

That we've forgotten what regret's worth


Cause that's exactly

What a catastrophe is

Ignoring warnings

Thinking kids will be kids will be

A delusion

Kept at a distance

I think it's strange to have to

Fight resistance



We're gonna get it right for the first time

We're gonna get it right

Gonna get it right

We're gonna get it right for the first time

Unmask ourselves

And we'll find…



We're nothing

We're nothing without You

We're nothing

We're nothing

We're nothing without You

We're nothing

We're nothing

We're nothing without You

We're nothing

We're nothing

We're nothing without You



I've given up on acting

Like I'm perfect
I advise you all

To do the same

Perfection's rare

So the last time I checked

We've all been introduced

To feeling ashamed

Let's talk about the way things were

Let's talk about the way things should be

I think I'm certain

But I'm not so sure

If I'll turn my back

As soon as God lets me



We're gonna get it right for the first time

We're gonna get it right

Gonna get it right

We're gonna get it right for the first time

Cause when we try it alone

Then we find…



You make me sure, in the midst

Of heartbreak and turbulence

That my spirit soars

Only because it's Yours
