Jacob

Well, I've been running for the keep, I've been wrestling in my sleep

Been wearing these skins for so long

I've been running from the gun, from my own father's son

To used to running to settle my home

And all my lies just bought more land for me to roam

And I know that I'm not right

But I'm still putting up a fight

And I know my hands can't hold all I aim to steal

And I know that there is a cure

For this sickness my heart endures

But it's hard to walk naked into the light

Well, since you called me the deceiver I admit that I believed her

And I was raised by that name, her first son

Some nights I stay up and wonder, am I a con man or a brother?

But in the morning my heart wakes up numb

And all my lies just make more cause for me to run

And I know that I'm not right

But I'm still putting up a fight

And I know my hands can't hold all I aim to steal

And I know that there is a cure

For this sickness my heart endures

But it's hard to walk naked into the light

Yeah, it's hard to walk naked into the light

Well, in the night I saw your doorstep from my dreams while I slept

And angels stood where my head had lain

And I know I should be grateful, but my heart, it's just so tangled

In the words and the lies and the pain

So touch me and I won't walk the same

Oh, God, would you give me a name?

'Cause all my lies just left one person here to blame
