Elephant Man

The vision of that misconception
I hate to see my life misconstrued
It hurts to live with their deception
Time to pray before my heart's unglued
 
And the feelings I get
Feeling so wronged
They can't understand
I'm being undone
 
I'm feeling down...
can't estimate
I'm being hurt...
can't trust in fate
I'm losing heart...
feel left alone
Torn all apart...
yet He makes me whole

Flesh Wounds

I'm out of skin
to be torn away
by your harsh words
against my ways
I don't know why
you feel such hate
I did nothing
to deserve this fate
 
So I pray every day
for your heart to change
 
All your hate
strips away my skin
and flesh begins to
heap at my feet
I can't feel any more pain
because I've grown too weak
 
So I pray every day
for God to give me strength
 
These wounds are growing free
Scraping and grinding away
Your hurtful words cut deep
My confidence runs low
 
Kneeling I always pray
for you before me

Help Me!

I can't lie any more
I'm not what you see
I'm not the real me
Need to breathe
Need to be free
I can't live like this any more
 
I am just a boy
Too immature to know
What my life is for
I've messed up
Now I need some help
From the everlasting Lord
 
Teach me how to live
I've grown up without life
In a family full of strife
I want to feel alive
I want to be alright
Please show me how to live
 
I need some assistance
So help me please
I want to know Jesus
and what He did for me
