Here
Words and music by Julie Black
Don't inspire me with feelings I cannot return
I watch my prayers hit the ceiling
and come crashing down again
I've swallowed hard I've skinned my knees
and still you leave me bleeding here
Don't make me hope for things
You know I cannot attain
I seen the world I've done my best
still it all comes out the same
I took the blows I made my way
Still you see me bleeding here
I can't hold on with faith that I don't have
There's a sacred place that escapes me and I
Cling to you to deliver me
In the end I'm floating out to sea
Don't make promises to me that you will not keep
My sleep is stolen by the dreams
That you've inspired
I took the bait, I swallowed hard
And you watch me bleeding here.
CHORUS
( REPEAT VERSE ONE)
