They say if you make your bed
You should lay in it
So I've been taking my time 'cause I want to quit
If I told you what I went and did
It's at the tip of my tongue
But I want to spit
I can't make sense what I'm trying to say
Please give me a minute just to bow it a certain way
I'm not okay
I'm scared if I showed you my heart
Then you'd just push me away
Or either tear me apart
I deserve it every day
But as I get a bit closer
I feel a hand touch my shoulder
And voice that says
I love you, I love you anyway
If I put the soap in my hands, will I wash it clean
Or will the dirt be in the nails of my pride and bleed
On the floor of the pews where I take a seat
So maybe cover it up with a rug and see
Wait, no, I'm done with hiding away
I don't really get it but I'll trust you either way
I'm not okay
I'm scared if I showed you my heart
Then you'd just push me away or either tear me apart
I deserve it every day
But as I get a bit closer
I feel a hand touch my shoulder
And voice that says
I love you, I love you anyway
Jesus, I lift up my hands 'cause you're the reason
You see us, under your blood we can dance in freedom
I'm scared but I give you my heart
You didn't just push me away
Or either tear me apart
I deserve it every day
But as I get a bit closer
I feel a hand touch my shoulder
And voice that says
I love you, I love you anyway
