1
I was away for a while
2
But I'm hoping someday you'll forgive me
3
Though I don't deserve it
4
I'll cherish it well if you give me one of your new starts
5
Just one more last chance
6
I swear that I'll earn it
7
If you front me for now
8
I'm good for it I swear
9
I'm better now I swear
10
In earlier days, they'd persecute people
11
They'd carry them off, and hobble their legs
12
For lesser offenses, than how I have harmed you
13
And still you allow me to walk free of pain
14
Though I punish myself
15
I will never settle
16
The debts I've incured for scorning the face
17
Of absolute beauty, and measureless grace
18
And though I once mocked you
19
I'm dying to pay for it now
20
I'm dying to pay for it now
21
So hand me the rocks to help weigh me down
22
And tether my legs with a cord tightly bound
23
To the end of an anchor thrown into the sound
24
And test me to see if I will rise against the worst that it can get
25
I wasn't well for a while
26
I savored the things that I knew were sure to destroy me
27
And that seemed to hold me
28
That seemed to carry me where I couldn't go
29
On the strength of my own
30
Well, I should've known
31
That gets me nowhere
32
I've learned that now I swear
33
In earlier days, they'd persecute people
34
They'd carry them off, and hobble their legs
35
For lesser offenses, than how I have harmed you
36
And still you allow me to walk free of pain
37
Though I punish myself
38
I will never settle
39
The debts I've incured for scorning the face
40
Of absolute beauty, and measureless grace
41
And though I once mocked you
42
I'm dying to pay for it now
43
I'm dying to pay for it now, now, now
44
So hand me the rocks to help weigh me down
45
And tether my legs with a cord tightly bound
46
To then end of an anchor thrown into the sound
47
And test me to see if I will rise against the worst that it can get
48
Well, I wasn't sure that I could
49
Well, I wasn't sure that I could
50
Well, I wasn't sure that I could
51
But, I can
