[Verse 1]
I've been lying to myself, and I've been lying to You
After all these years, it's hard to be true
And often I stay up and wonder: does it matter to You?
If the words I believe, are the words I choose
[Chorus]
So don't let me, live my life with this bandage on
And don't let me, let the fear of what I'm not, make my heart numb
And don't let me sing another song, without feeling fire in my lungs
[Verse 2]
I've been lying to myself, and I've been lying to You
After all these years, it's hard to be true
And often I've stayed up and wondered: could I come back new?
Forget these words I've believed that lead me far from You
[Chorus]
So don't let me, live my life with this bandage on
And don't let me, let the fear of what I'm not, make my heart numb
And don't let me sing another song, without feeling fire in my lungs
[Bridge]
So would You tear my idols down?
Make my heart Your holy ground
Come light Your fire in me
Keep my eyes upon Your throne
'Cause all my hopes in you alone
Come light Your fire in me
[Outro]
So don't let me, live my life with this bandage on…
