Cauterize
I tried to push it all back down
Then it rises up within
I tried to push it all away
Tried not to give in
I ran a thousand miles away
I thought I knew what's right
Then I looked it in the eyes to say
This isn't mine to fight
We close our eyes just to see
The truth of the things we feel
We turn our backs to your blazing love
Face down on a barren field
All we know is self-aimed lies
A stubbornness to yield
All we know is to cauterize
You alone know how to heal
I tried to put out the fire, but
The fire put out me
I tried to wash away the pain
But it became a part of me
I cried out in anguish
Hoping for someone to hear it
This burden was far too much
For me alone to bear it
I was a fool
Why did I not hear your truth?
We close our eyes just to see
The truth of the things we feel
We turn our backs to your blazing love
Face down on a barren field
All we know is self-aimed lies
A stubbornness to yield
All we know is to cauterize
You alone know how to heal
Sometimes our tears blind us
To seeing your light
Why do we still fear the darkness
When dawn starts to unwind?
I left myself behind
But you stayed back with me
There's no one you don't want to save
No thing you can't set free
We close our eyes just to see
The truth of the things we feel
We turn our backs to your blazing love
Face down on a barren field
All we know is self-aimed lies
A stubbornness to yield
All we know is to cauterize
You alone know how to heal
Then it rises up within
I tried to push it all away
Tried not to give in
I ran a thousand miles away
I thought I knew what's right
Then I looked it in the eyes to say
This isn't mine to fight
We close our eyes just to see
The truth of the things we feel
We turn our backs to your blazing love
Face down on a barren field
All we know is self-aimed lies
A stubbornness to yield
All we know is to cauterize
You alone know how to heal
I tried to put out the fire, but
The fire put out me
I tried to wash away the pain
But it became a part of me
I cried out in anguish
Hoping for someone to hear it
This burden was far too much
For me alone to bear it
I was a fool
Why did I not hear your truth?
We close our eyes just to see
The truth of the things we feel
We turn our backs to your blazing love
Face down on a barren field
All we know is self-aimed lies
A stubbornness to yield
All we know is to cauterize
You alone know how to heal
Sometimes our tears blind us
To seeing your light
Why do we still fear the darkness
When dawn starts to unwind?
I left myself behind
But you stayed back with me
There's no one you don't want to save
No thing you can't set free
We close our eyes just to see
The truth of the things we feel
We turn our backs to your blazing love
Face down on a barren field
All we know is self-aimed lies
A stubbornness to yield
All we know is to cauterize
You alone know how to heal
