You're choking on your troubles, Engulfed by all your panic,
You're making plans that keep failing,
Your thought patterns are manic,
You don't know how to cope,
With life scratching at your heels,
And your sadness has made marks,
Scars that simply don't heal,
You tell them that you're drowning,
And all they can say is "Swim faster!"
But at this time remember,
Your life Guard walks on water,
He's taken care of your worries,
That you laid at his feet,
And He's fought all your battles,
God knows no defeat,
All your troubles and your panic,
He'll wipe the slate clean,
He absorbed all your sin,
Before you even came into being,
He created you human,
And as humans we have flaws,
But God doesn't turn us away,
Infact He opens His doors,
He made us with intentions,
A pathway of greatness,
It comes with its problems,
But with God you can take this,
He's show'n us with Ephesians 6,
The Armor Of God,
Is what we need to stand righteous,
Even though we are flawed,
Now I know what you're thinking,
"My flaws are too great,
For this God to still love me,
I'm only a mistake."
Now the only mistake,
Is what you've just said,
Because its for You that he died,
And then rose from the dead,
Our God has no fine print,
No way he won't accept you,
Because he planned your path ahead,
And in seeing his end, he still died for you!
Now none of us are sinless,
And that's why we were saved!
We were not made perfect,
But we were perfect enough to be made!
Its a shock wave to my hearts pace,
Skipping beats and skipping rhythm,
A pace maker as a place taker,
Not even my decision,
A drum beat in the distance,
Confusing to my ears,
Its the drumming of my heart beat,
Ringing out the fears,
Like music its not tangible,
But I feel it all the same,
All it takes is a single look,
All it takes is a simple name,
Its never going to happen,
They're way above my league,
But I can still hope for it,
Its not illegal to dream,
So the music keeps on pounding,
Shaking the boundaries of my walls,
They're so perfect its crazy,
That it even took me this long at all
Its the dark of night,
The feeling that you can't breath,
The empty feeling in your heart,
Another one ready to leave,
It hurts in every heartbeat,
As it echoes alone,
You have been evicted,
By the one you called home,
You cannot believe,
Anything will heal,
Never again,
Will you ever feel,
Never trusting again,
No one will look at you,
You're damaged goods,
Nothing left to do,
You're not good enough for any,
Too tall for any guy,
Too fat for any standard,
Too ugly for any eyes,
Its hard to feel good enough; When you've never been told you are,
Never been treated like a princess,
Never been looked at like art,
All the guys you look at,
Sweet, lovely and kind,
Are looking for the pretty ones,
Not interested in what lies behind,
So you'll pretend that you are heartless,
Like you never even feel,
Cuz you'll never know what's going on,
Or even know what's real…
