Crywolf
I was taught to win
Put trophies on the shelf
But now I've got a problem that is dragging me through hell
Cause God, I want Your love
More than I want Your help
So if I can't be perfect, then I'll just be someone else
I don't know who I am
Got an image that I defend
With every word
But I'm lying through my teeth
When I hold clean, white-as-snow fleece
Above the dirt
Shame never seems to quit
Telling me that I won't get
Better anyway
So I put on a mask
Not the best at being honest
I'm like the boy who cried wolf
Crywolf!
The lies I tell myself
Dig deeper than the ear
Cause I don't recognize the man I see inside the mirror
I don't know who I am
Got an image that I defend
With every word
But I'm lying through my teeth
When I hold clean, white-as-snow fleece
Above the dirt
Shame never seems to quit
Telling me that I won't get
Better anyway
So I put on a mask
Not the best at being honest
I'm like the boy who cried wolf
I don't know who I am
Got an image that I defend
With every word
But I'm lying through my teeth
When I hold clean, white-as-snow fleece
Above the dirt
Shame never seems to quit
Telling me that I won't get
Better anyway
So I put on a mask
Not the best at being honest
I'm like the boy who cried wolf
Crywolf!
Crywolf!
Crywolf!
Crywolf!
Put trophies on the shelf
But now I've got a problem that is dragging me through hell
Cause God, I want Your love
More than I want Your help
So if I can't be perfect, then I'll just be someone else
I don't know who I am
Got an image that I defend
With every word
But I'm lying through my teeth
When I hold clean, white-as-snow fleece
Above the dirt
Shame never seems to quit
Telling me that I won't get
Better anyway
So I put on a mask
Not the best at being honest
I'm like the boy who cried wolf
Crywolf!
The lies I tell myself
Dig deeper than the ear
Cause I don't recognize the man I see inside the mirror
I don't know who I am
Got an image that I defend
With every word
But I'm lying through my teeth
When I hold clean, white-as-snow fleece
Above the dirt
Shame never seems to quit
Telling me that I won't get
Better anyway
So I put on a mask
Not the best at being honest
I'm like the boy who cried wolf
I don't know who I am
Got an image that I defend
With every word
But I'm lying through my teeth
When I hold clean, white-as-snow fleece
Above the dirt
Shame never seems to quit
Telling me that I won't get
Better anyway
So I put on a mask
Not the best at being honest
I'm like the boy who cried wolf
Crywolf!
Crywolf!
Crywolf!
Crywolf!
