save my life

deep inside

down in the darkest part of my heart

where what i'm ashamed of tries to hide

and tells me that things are fine just the way they are

i'm so afraid of anyone finding out about these chains

i'm starting to believe there's no way

the pieces of me i hate are ever gonna change

oh how i need you

see

here's my broken heart

i lift it up

it's empty of the foolish pride

i no longer try to hide

please hear my desperate plea

come and rescue me

cause i realize tonight

i need you to save my life

all my life i've been running from the light of your truth

holding back a part of me i should've given you

because i never knew there was freedom just outside

so i can't stand living with these lies

i don't want there to ever be one more day

when i can't see just how desperately

i'm in need of you
