I’m trying to hold on to you
But I’m dying to let go
There’s gotta be something I have to do
To pay back what I owe
I want this all to make sense in my mind
But nothing does
Can’t wrap my mind around unconditional love
Logic cannot stretch that far
Logic, my permanent scar
Since I was born I’ve been this way
Too smart to understand
Why my life never turns out
Exactly how I planned
And things that are beyond me
I assume aren’t worth the reach
Shame that faith is something
Those philosophers can’t teach
Logic cannot stretch that far
Logic, my permanent scar
Logic froze my heart until it shattered with one blow
Logic stole the life I could have had if I let go
Logic promised everything and nothing’s all I have to show
For life
Oh Jesus, I’m an empty soul
I need Your love to fill this hole
This blackness that’s inside of me
This cage with bars that I can’t see
Just hold me in the palm of Your hand
And give me the faith that I can’t understand
I’m only a man that has worked way too hard
To hold onto a treasure
I have found is just a scar
Permanent as pencil lead
When erased with precious blood
