cannot go on
i have been running for so long
cannot turn back

that'd be admitting that i'm wrong
run to be free
following all i've been thinking
i tie my own chains
and wake from my daydream sinking

never have i been subjected to such a demand
when action becomes resting in You despite my plans
i stand on my own and i break because i won't bend
and You catch my falling pieces in your hand
You catch my falling pieces in your hand

stood on my feet
now their ripped out from under me
by surging waves
i am pulled farther underneath
won't admit need
though this may be my last chance
pulled farther down
by my own pride and arrogance

mercy runs deep
so many chances i receive
and though i forget
never have You forgotten me
