It's dark and it's quite in my house tonight
Maybe they're all gone to sleep
It's hard to imagine a better life
Than the I get to lead
I had a glass of wine but my mind is clear
These walls they talk to me
Don't blink an eye, you're a young man now
But you won't always be
[CHORUS]:
My blood and my bones
My heart and my hands
They try to hold on to this sin
So I'm running to you like a west Texas wind
singing God I need you, oh how I need you
God I need you again
I've learned to hide my fear in my bones
My body don't shake like the kids
But I'm easily scared, often confused
I rarely know what I do
I've made mistakes, many worse than that
I've hurt the ones that I love
I wish that peace was finally here
But it seldom ever does
[CHORUS]
I'm in the shadows of Heaven and Earth
Maybe they should be the same
But my Earthly body is bound and conflicted
I'm left feeling the pain
This house is not our only home
You can't protect what is gone
God I know you can hear me
So please...
I'm ready to let the world go
[CHORUS]
