All my life I tried to change the paint
All these years I tried to rearrange
This old house in which I was raised
The home I always loved
Something somehow didn't feel quite right
All my life I had to beg for mercy
Chasing a fire that could burn me clean
Wash away the dirt in me
Wash away the dirt in me
Something somehow didn't feel quite right
I grew up in heaven
In the hands of men
Close to God
Close to soul
Save from this world
I was born a sinner
But worked hard for grace
How should I escape
The only home I know
Something somehow didn't feel quite right
When you're born into damnation
The only way to find redemption
Is giving up
I grew up in heaven
In the hands of men
Close to God
Close to soul
Save from this world
I was born a sinner
But worked hard for grace
How should I escape
The only home I love
I grew up in heaven
In the hands of men
Close to God
Close to soul
Save from this world
I was born a sinner
But worked hard for grace
How should I escape
The only home I want
