I wish that i could say i am a perfect man
I wish sometimes that i would not be who i am
One day i decided i would think on this,
Not knowing if faith and pain could co-exist:

Could i ever on my own conceive
Of someone i did not know, but i need?
I must be made to be at peace and communion
'cause there must be some place somehow from where i have fallen

Chorus
I find through every ounce of pain i feel
That my mind cannot deny that god is real

The inconsistency of what i say i should be
Compared to what i am in actuallity
Leaves me in conclusion that i know the way
Though i am unable to always obey

Nothing in this world has satisfied
My soul's hunger for a deeper life
The weight of my misdeeds were crushing, blinding me
I still live with pain inside but now i see

- chorus -

- solo -

The peices of my life are scattered on the floor
I stared at them till i could take no more

I do not deserve to be set free
Forgiveness is what i despereately need
If it wasn't for the perfect blood was shed
Would i not be dead inside but i live instead

- chorus (2x) -

I know my faith's still here
Believe through all my tears
