lyrics

I felt I needed to stay to prove a point that I could make it out okay
Like a feeling that won't go away
I never expected that I'd see it through these eyes
When the path of least resistance still applies

What comes always can go
I'm not carved out of stone
I'm a flower trying to grow
Through the cracks of my plateau
When you can't rise above the tide
When your heart feels cast aside
Then it's time to ask the question
This is my confession

Every time I get above the water I feel the waves get higher
The weight of my spirit pulls me down
The face in the mirror starts to come in through the haze
And it's telling me to give a little grace

What comes always can go
I'm not carved out of stone
I'm a flower trying to grow
Through the cracks of my plateau
When you can't rise above the tide
When your heart feels cast aside
Then it's time to make a decision
This is my confession

When I feel it every day
Makes me wonder if I'm okay
It's a debt I can't repay
When you question your devotion
Are the wheels set in motion?

What comes always can go
I can see it through the smoke
There's grace within admission
Is it time for resolution?
Can I give you my confession?
