God And Girl

Lord, I'm breaking

Please undo these chains I've placed upon myself

'Cause she had everything

And everything's what she took

Now I got nothing

But you'll be my second look

I was leaning on her beauty, skin deep

Now I am waiting

In this hollow dream I sleep

I fell away into the wonders of her face

I traded you in for her temporary grace

Try to understand that I have a heart for you

But I am just a man

And I know it's no excuse

She came to take me away

And I was blocking out all you had to say

And though I lost her love I found my way

All at the price of a little heartache

The more I come to find

She always said "you're on your own"

And so we lived a lie

And together felt alone

But in you I could confide

To lay me down when I am weak

And lift my eyes past the pleasures people seek
