Deliver Me
[Verse 1]
One day to wonder what's bothering me
You said it
I'm just the half of this that just won't see
Believe it

If I am wishing I am hoping as well
Sometimes I
I tell you clearly
But it's hard to tell

Someone will watch me with an eager eye
But I'm not
I'm not even here to even try

If the rain stops calling
Calling my name
Well, I'm still in the thick of it
And bearing the shame

[Chorus]
(Deliver me)
Oh, no you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
Oh, no you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
Oh, no you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
One day you'll wake up
And then you'll see

[Verse 2]
Some times are hard, some times they drag
Well, I can see in your face
You've seen the half of this

Maybe I'm naming all the changes too much
But see you
You never leave it if you have to touch

And I will
Always be waiting with a happy smile
But the smile is just a-laughing
Killer, laugh awhile

Don't know what I'm doing here
I don't know if I'm sane
But I swear if I'm feeling this
I'm feeling the pain

[Chorus]
(Deliver me)
Oh, no you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
Oh, no you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
Oh, no you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
One day you'll wake up
And then you'll see

[Bridge]
Mmhmm

Mm hmm hmm hmm

Mm hmm hmm hmm

Hmm

[Verse 3]
I can't be your standard
Wish you away
I can't be all this much
See, you still have too much to say

Some skies are darkening; I call out loud
Well, I'm the good side of you
And I'm still proud to be
Waiting for lightness when you stray
Well, I'm sure that I hear him
He's slipping away

[Chorus]
(Deliver me)
Oh, no you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
Oh, no you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
Oh, no you don't deliver in me
(Deliver me)
But one day you'll wake up
And then you'll see

[Outro]
Mm hmm

Mm hmm hmm hmm

Mm hmm hmm hmm hmm

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Deliver
