Covered Up

There's a darkness keeps my heart so heavy I can't feel my shadow
Stripped of all my pride so when I see the light
My shame has taught me how to hide

But I can hear it in the way you say my name
All the fear inside melts away
Feel the love, can't live without it
I'm covered up, can't be without it
I hear it in the way you say my name
Together warm and safe
Feel your touch, can't be without it
I'm covered up when you say my name

And I never quite believed it
In my pride I hate the help
Blood on my hands to make amends
And cover this myself
Now I know that I need you
Cause I break everyday I fight alone
Share the weight of the burden
Every time you call me home

I hear it in the way you say my name
All the fear inside melts away
Feel the love, can't live without it
I'm covered up, can't be without it
I hear it in the way you say my name
Together warm and safe
Feel your touch, can't be without it
I'm covered up when you say my name

In the heat of guilt you gave me shade
As a thousand curses turned to broken chains
Feel the touch of a lover free from shame
This love will remain

I hear it in the way you say my name
All the fear inside melts away
Feel the love, can't live without it
I'm covered up, can't be without it
I hear it in the way you say my name
Together warm and safe
Feel your touch, can't be without it
I'm covered up when you say my name
I can hear it in the way you say my name, my name
Covered up when you say my name
