Terrible Mistake
I'm beginning to question what they promised me
I'm beginning to recognize that this freedom feels like slavery
'Cause when I try to let go of what they hand to me
My hands turn into fists
These chains tighten 'round my wrists (oh)
I heard a story about a girl, our eyes are the same color
Her words painted a different world
That brought freedom like no other (oh)
Feels like I'm waking up
The fight or flight response is stirring up (oh)
They've made a terrible mistake misjudging all your motives
We're not doomed our father's fate
God rest his soul, you show them
They've made a terrible mistake misjudging all your motives
We're not doomed our father's fate
God rest his soul, you show them
The cosmos expand at your command
And yet, somehow, I'm invited in
With a song of love so beyond my soul
How could I ever drink it in? (Oh)
My trembling soul bows as low as I can go (oh)
They've made a terrible mistake misjudging all your motives
We're not doomed our father's fate
God rest his soul, you show them
They've made a terrible mistake misjudging all your motives
We're not doomed our father's fate
God rest his soul, you show them
Just take my all, just take me over
If I perish, I perish
Just burn me up, consuming fire
If I survive, I survive
It must be true that I've died
But here I am somehow alive
I am your living sacrifice
I don't know how I'm still alive
Just take my all, just take me over
If I perish, I perish
Just burn me up, consuming fire
If I survive, I survive
Can it be I've already died?
I am your living sacrifice
I don't know how I'm still alive
I am your living sacrifice
Oh, your living sacrifice (oh)
They've made a terrible mistake misjudging all your motives
We're not damned our father's fate
God rest his soul, you show them
They've made a terrible mistake misjudging all your motives
We're not damned our father's fate
God rest his soul, you show them
It must be true that I have died
But here I am somehow alive
I am your living sacrifice
I don't know how I'm still alive
Oh, how I'm still alive
Oh, your living sacrifice
I'm beginning to recognize that this freedom feels like slavery
'Cause when I try to let go of what they hand to me
My hands turn into fists
These chains tighten 'round my wrists (oh)
I heard a story about a girl, our eyes are the same color
Her words painted a different world
That brought freedom like no other (oh)
Feels like I'm waking up
The fight or flight response is stirring up (oh)
They've made a terrible mistake misjudging all your motives
We're not doomed our father's fate
God rest his soul, you show them
They've made a terrible mistake misjudging all your motives
We're not doomed our father's fate

But here I am somehow alive
I am your living sacrifice
I don't know how I'm still alive
Oh, how I'm still alive
Oh, your living sacrifice
