17

(альбом: Let The Ground Rest - 2020)

Here I am, confessing again
I know I've let You down
I've said it a thousand times
Never again starts now
I've slept through so many days
I've wasted so much time
Can't solve it with a song
Can't fix it with a rhyme

So I'll try
To be honest with myself
Again
But I can feel just so uncomfortable in my skin
No, You told me that You love me
But I don't remember when
Oh-oh-oh-oh

Feel like I was so much wiser when I was 17
Saw the world in just two shades
Didn't stand in the in-between
If the man I was back then saw who I am right now
Wonder if he'd be disappointed in how he would turn out

So I'll try
To be honest with myself
Again
But I can feel just so uncomfortable in my skin
No, You told me that You love me
But I don't remember when
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

But I hear You say
"Child, stop listening to yourself so much
I have made you more than worthy of My love
You are fearfully and wonderfully made
And that's enough"
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
"Whoa, child
If you could see yourself the way that I do
You'd see I made you in My image and My work's not through
Oh, we'll dance on his disappointment
In a world made new"
Whoa-oa-oa

Oh, I know your heart is tired
The floods and the fire
Have made this seem all too far gone
Oh, I know your heart is broken
But the last words I've spoken
The best is still yet to come
Oh, I know your heart is tired
The floods and the fire
Have made this seem all too far gone
Oh, I know your heart is broken
But the last words I've spoken
The best is still yet to come
