The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Well I'd like to help you now but

I think I'm just too broken

To rebuild again would cost me more

of all these things I choke in

And it's not the way

I want it to be but

I'm blind in the places I thought

I could see And weak in the mind and

the soul of the man

And it's hard to explain cuz'

I don't understand

I guess I'm weaker than

I wanted to be weaker than

I thought I was

There's nothing in the world

that's free it's all too much for me

And it's not the way

I want it to be cuz' what

I wanted to be

I just can't find within me

Well I'd love to help you out

but how could you hear me now

When you see me fall

and watch it all

I don't think that

I know how

And it's not the way

I want it to be and

I wonder if you're cut by

the ways that I bleed

So I wish that

I could stand all alone

but there's no part of the body

that move on it's own

So I guess it's too late to complain

about you heard enough of the truth

that you figured it out

And it's not the way

I want it to be cuz' what

I wanted to be

I just can't find within me

This is not the way

I want it to be

I might be the only part of Christ

that somebody sees And

it's the only hope

I know how to give you

and it's just too much for me

to live up to And

I never wanted to be the one you see

I'm not the best one for showing

you the things

I believe and it's not the way

I want it to be but what

I wanted to be I just can't

find within me
