never since

you sleep it out, 'cause in the night it is awake

so that it'll sleep in while you're coping through the day

and that's just the weight of the bitterness

it comes sweet pretending that it stays the same 

but it never was that way, never since

i am frightened and bitten

oh, God, please be real

i am trying and battling

oh, God, please be true

for once, please, could you?

have i been too sinful

that the bible won't go through

the spirit that should be fed

with hope and grace 

am i a disgrace? 

be the one to say..

you sleep it out, 'cause in the night it is awake

so that it'll sleep in while you're coping through the day

and that's just the weight of the bitterness

it comes sweet pretending that it stays the same 

but it never was that way, never since
