| You’ve never been the one to blame
|
| (You've never been the one to blame)
|
| That one to know that I’m at fault
|
| But never take it out on me
|
| If the two of us were both the same
|
| I wouldn’t know where I need to be
|
| You’re the bigger picture I can’t see
|
| This one goes out to You
|
| Solitude, at least that’s what I call it
|
| Keeping those streets of gold on my mind
|
| I don’t know why, as the years they pass me by
|
| It gets harder just to take my time
|
| No one to keep me from You
|
| No one to stay my hand from seeking the truth
|
| From reaching up for the only hope I ever knew
|
| For every time I wasn’t honest, kind, or true
|
| I used to think I was lucky, but I’ve realized now I’m just blessed that I
|
| found some sort of home in a heart even though I lived so long in selfishness.
|
| Because I’ve learned you know my heart more than you know my routine
|
| and most nights it’s all I need to be able to fall asleep.
|
| Because I’ve learned running away from home is like finding strength in
|
| weakness, but I always come back around knowing that I can’t continue to live
|
| like this.
|
| So thank you for your honesty,
|
| I’ve found that love has gone from just being sobering to being so refreshing.
|
| And even if pain doesn’t go away, I just thank God you decided to stay.
|
| Because I know I have purpose when you purposefully tell me you that see
|
| something in me, even when I can’t see myself.
|
| If this hasn’t been waiting in vain, I could consider this monogamy
|
| Living devoted and betrothed to the One
|
| Who believed in me and wouldn’t give up
|
| If the clock looks like it ticks too slow
|
| Even when its given time to grow
|
| I’ll know for sure that it was my own impatience
|
| That I’d feel better if my ego was vacant
|
| In closing, I’d like to thank You for her
|
| For every word she spoke to help me rest assured
|
| That I’m not lonely, that I’m not falling away
|
| For every time she reminds me of You and lives up to her name
|
| Thank you for everything, thank you for having patience with me
|
| Thank you for reminding me that God is all that I will ever need
|
| Thank you for praying for me, thank you for giving me room to breathe
|
| Thank you for letting me see who I am and who I want to be |
