Take this heart of stone and ash
Clothe these frail bones in skin and flesh
Fashion beauty in my weary frame
Filter love into my veins again...

I am dying, hear me crying,
Barely breathing, I can't see.

(CHORUS)

I'm anxious and waiting,
I'm suffocating
And everything's hanging on Your next move.
Pride has me tangled
And lies have me strangled
And everything's hanging on what You do.

Break my legs or I will run again
And undo everything You've done and been...
Arrest my tongue, a jagged blade,
Guard my mind by barricade,
Take me out from underneath, relieve me.

I am dying, hear me crying,
Barely breathing, I can't see.

(CHORUS)

Tear me down to skin and bones
Till I'm broken and exposed
Whittle something beautiful of me...

I am dying, hear me crying,
Barely breathing, I can't see.

(CHORUS)

I thought that I knew you
That I could see through into your heart
So why am I blind and
Unable to find you where you are

For so long I have wondered
Where it was you'd gone
Well I've been so wrong

(CHORUS)
I thought I had you down
I had you figured out
But I look away and you're somewhere else
And I, no matter how I try
I still can't see or feel you
Where are you

I believed and I trusted
And proved that I wanted
What you gave
So why are you silent
While I in the quiet
Fight the hate

For so long I have wondered
Why you walked away
And you had nothing to say

(CHORUS)

I don't know where it fell apart
Or where I came up missing
But I'm past a stubborn hope
Back inside the wishing
This was over, back to normal
I'd get right back to my life
Where all the things that fell to pieces
Find a way into the light

And it's not that things are wretched
It's that I'm a filthy whore
I'd deny what satisfies me
For the thought of maybe more
That never guarantees an end
Only promises a friend
Turned to foe before the day is done
Well all I know is

I'd fight anything if in my way
And I would die before you ever hear me say

Save, Save, Save me
Save, Save, Save me

Well I'm not so discontent
That I would turn on what I know
But I'm not afraid to tell you
That I'm scared to death to go
From here and where I've always been
To where you are inside my head
Trace my steps back to you
Learn how not to

Fight, fight what I cannot understand
Cause I would die before I'd ever take a hand to

Save, Save, Save me
Save, Save, Save me

Take the blood drained from a side
And you can turn a prostitute into a bride
Take three nails, a crown of thorns
And you can shape a wife out of a whore

Save, Save, Save me
Save, Save, Save me
Save, Save, Save me
Save, Save, Save me

Well lately, every comfort alludes me
And I can't seem to find my way
And they tell me these moments
the moments are fleeting
But without you, these moments
They drone on for days

Cause you break through the confusion
And it's nothing that you say

(CHORUS)
It's your company that I miss
The sweetness of your kiss
And your quiet tenderness
It's you with me
At the end of the longest day
And all the things that I cannot say
It's the way you are

Spring seems such a terrible distance
And some days I don't know if I'm going to last

Cause I'm growing so impatient
As I'm trying to wait it out

(CHORUS)

Words cannot define
Break into my mind
To express all the things that I need you to hear
That I'm needing you here

(CHORUS)

(CHORUS)
There is nothing better
There is nothing better
Than knowing you will be my home forever
There is no one else
Who can save me from myself

Yeah, I'm believing
You're the air I'm breathing
And as long as I'm alive
You are how my heart's beating
There is nothing more
Above, below, beside, before

(CHORUS)

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
I'm alive
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
I'm alive

(CHORUS)

I can't stay this way
It's not who I'm meant to be
And though I'm not at my worst
You know there's so much more to me

Than all these little fears
That rule and run me through the ground
Dig a hole, it's six feet deep to bury me
Before I have a chance, a chance to come around

(CHORUS)
And oh, these little things that bury me
These things that bind me in my need
If only I could find a way beyond
The way things seem to be
Then I'd be free
Then I'd be free

Well, I know I can't remain
In confusion and dis-ease
And I know I need a change
But I don't know how to leave

No, cause I can't make it past these fears
That rule and run me through the ground
Dig a hole, it's six feet deep to bury me
Before I ever have a chance, a chance to come around

(CHORUS)

Well too much of my history
Won't let me go
And there're too many questions
Leaving too many unknowns
And all I want, and all I need
Is a way back to my knees
If I could find you, then I'd see you
And I know that I'd believe

That all these little things can't bury me
These things can't bind me in my need
You are the way beyond the way things seem to be
Oh, and I am free
I am free
I am free
I am free

Friday night you're driving home
Is it so hard to find your phone
To tell me I've been on your mind

You say that I'd be good for you
And then recant and say we're through
I wish you'd just make up your mind

One day in and one day out
There's just one thing I'm sure about
I'm tired of playing all these games

(CHORUS)
Don't wanna be alone
I've almost come undone
Don't wanna be alone anymore

Don't wanna be alone
I'm barely hanging on
Don't wanna be alone anymore

I've been so long here by myself
And all I want is someone else
To tell me everything’s alright

Well I'm not blind but I can't see
What the hell is wrong with me
Putting up a losing fight

One day on and one day off
I won't ever be enough
If this is all we'll ever be

(CHORUS)

I can't spend my life here waiting
While you're deliberating
If you want me, take me now
Or set me free

(CHORUS)
