MAYBE I LIED

Maybe I lied when I said I was fine
Shoulda told you I'm not
And maybe I tried when I looked in your eyes
To say what words won't

You'd never know my pain
I hide it well
I was a child and I had dreams
They're resting shattered on the shelf
I can't unwrite my history or change the way I felt
But maybe there's still hope for me
If you love me just like yourself

Could you help me
Even in the moments I'm not healthy
Hold me
Even in the moments I'm unholy
Feed me
Even in the moments that I'm bleeding
Love me even if it's ugly

Maybe I lied when I said I was fine
Shoulda told you I'm not
And maybe I tried when I looked in your eyes
To say what words won't

Tear stained face
As you ask me, can we pray
The warmth of your hand
Man, I ain't been warm in days
Being seen for the first time
Amen in Jesus Name
You might move on, but I'll never forget the day

You chose to help me
Even though you knew I wasn't healthy
To hold me
Even though you knew I was unholy
To feed me
Even though you knew that I was bleeding
To love me even though it's ugly

Maybe I lied when I said I was fine
Shoulda told you I'm not
And maybe I tried when I looked in your eyes
To say the things that words won't

You chose to hold me
Even though you knew I was unholy
To love me even though it's ugly

Maybe I lied when I said I was fine
Shoulda told you I'm not
And maybe I tried when I looked in your eyes
To say what words won't
yeah, maybe I lied when I said I was fine
Shoulda told you I'm not
But maybe I tried when I looked in your eyes
To say what words won't
Maybe I lied
