House Cleaning
Sitting on the mantel
I put it there
Just a simple picture...
Why must I stare?
Well I had my ideas set
Before we even met
Still you filled all my dreams
So I wonder why it fell
And I ended up in "hell"
Somebody's trying to talk to me
I shut out those voices
I've shut out that Voice for so long
Turned you into something
I turned you into someone you couldn't be
That's why I had to keep you
Beg and plead you, you could not leave
So when you went ahead and left
I stood up on the cliff
And thought about the rocks below...
Where my idol lay
In pieces and I prayed
I've got to hear that voice again
I raised up my voice
I raised up my voice to God above
He reached out to me
He taught me a brand new way to love
Oh, what a feeling!
I'm never gonna treat someone that way again
Oh, inner healing!
I found His truth and love and now it lives within
Sitting on the mantel
I put it there
Just a simple picture...
Can't help but stare
'Cause I threw that idol down
Don't ever want to see it 'round
I've found something to take its place
Well, it's called the Truth
And now all my ways are new
Now I'm living for the One who lives in me
I'm never going back
No, I'm never going back again
Oh, what a feeling!
I'm never gonna treat myself that way again
Oh, inner healing!
I found His freedom, and I saw my life begin
Oh, what a feeling!
I'm never gonna treat someone that way again
Oh, inner healing!
I found His truth and love and now it lives within
I put it there
Just a simple picture...
Why must I stare?
Well I had my ideas set
Before we even met
Still you filled all my dreams
So I wonder why it fell
And I ended up in "hell"
Somebody's trying to talk to me
I shut out those voices
I've shut out that Voice for so long
Turned you into something
I turned you into someone you couldn't be
That's why I had to keep you
Beg and plead you, you could not leave
So when you went ahead and left
I stood up on the cliff
And thought about the rocks below...
Where my idol lay
In pieces and I prayed
I've got to hear that voice again
I raised up my voice
I raised up my voice to God above
He reached out to me
He taught me a brand new way to love
Oh, what a feeling!
I'm never gonna treat someone that way again
Oh, inner healing!
I found His truth and love and now it lives within
Sitting on the mantel
I put it there
Just a simple picture...
Can't help but stare
'Cause I threw that idol down
Don't ever want to see it 'round
I've found something to take its place
Well, it's called the Truth
And now all my ways are new
Now I'm living for the One who lives in me
I'm never going back
No, I'm never going back again
Oh, what a feeling!
I'm never gonna treat myself that way again
Oh, inner healing!
I found His freedom, and I saw my life begin
Oh, what a feeling!
I'm never gonna treat someone that way again
Oh, inner healing!
I found His truth and love and now it lives within
