Lyrics
Here I go, surrounded by these shadows
Holding this candle close, tip-toeing the shallows
I can hear the creatures of my making stirring
I've beaten them this long but I swear they're learning
One foot in front of the other, try to break out
Eyes forward, a hand reaches for me now
This curtain of black and damned peels away
The warmth of his touch and the calm on his face
The pain and the cold turn to hope and I'm grateful
Too many times have I embraced this urge to be hateful
I've lived through so much disappointment and frustration
I never trusted the judgement of God and his placement
I give you my pain
I give you my heartache
I give you my gains
I give you all that I take
[Verse]
The pain and the cold turn to hope and I'm grateful
Too many times have I embraced this urge to be hateful
I've lived through so much disappointment and frustration
I never trusted the judgement of God and his placement
[Chorus]
One foot in front of the other, try to break out
Eyes forward, a hand reaches for me now
This curtain of black and damned peels away
The warmth of his touch and the calm on his face
[Bridge]
I give you my pain
I give you my heartache
I give you my gains
I give you all that I take
I give you my gains
I give you all that I take
[Chorus]
One foot in front of the other, try to break out
Eyes forward, a hand reaches for me now
This curtain of black and damned peels away
The warmth of his touch and the calm on his face
I give you my pain
I give you my heartache
I give you my gains
I give you all that I take
[Chorus]
One foot in front of the other, try to break out
Eyes forward, a hand reaches for me now
This curtain of black and damned peels away
The warmth of his touch and the calm on his face
[Outro]
