Why do I do things that won't bring me closer to You
|
No reason or excuse for most of them so I do them
|
Responsible for my part in pushing You away
|
And when I deserve to be left alone, You stayed
|
|
Couldn't help but notice something
|
That just keeps happening
|
Doesn't make much sense to me
|
But He does it again and again
|
|
Lord, I promise this is really the last time
|
(We've all said these words)
|
Sorry for not praying, it must have slipped my mind
|
(I never wanted You to hurt)
|
|
If You get me out of this one
|
I'll never do it again
|
When will I learn my lesson?
|
What would life be if I ran out of chances?
|
|
My closet so full of things I don't want You to see
|
If You knew all about me You'd question my belief
|
I know I haven't paid for each of the mistakes I make
|
So, thank you for keeping secrets, Lord
|
Let me just say
|
|
Couldn't help but notice something
|
That just keeps happening
|
It doesn't make much sense to me
|
But He does it again and again
|
|
Lord, I promise this is really the last time
|
(We've all said these words)
|
Sorry for not praying, it must have slipped my mind
|
(I never wanted You to hurt)
|
|
If You get me out of this one
|
I'll never do it again
|
When will I learn my lesson?
|
What would life be if I ran out of chances?
|
|
Uncover, expose me
|
That's the only way that I'll be free
|
Make me uncomfortable
|
Even if there's something I don't wanna see
|
|
I don't wanna live outside Your will, oh no
|
I've said it a thousand times
|
And I really wanna get it right
|
|
Lord, I promise this is really the last time
|
(We've all said these words)
|
Sorry for not praying, it must have slipped my mind
|
(I never wanted You to hurt)
|
|
If You get me out of this one
|
I'll never do it again
|
When will I learn my lesson?
|
Where will life be if I ran out of chances?
