Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If I had my way, I would've gone around it
Found an easier road
And there's no waking up from this nightmare
It's the hollow that I call home
[Verse 2]
Maybe I should've known down deep in my bones
I got lost in the blue of the sky
A hurt that don't fade, can't wash it away
It's yours till the day that you die
[Chorus]
I've been through it, yeah
The kind of pain that makes a man just lose it, yeah
A broken that goes way beyond the bruises and the scars
This old world can be so hard
Yeah, I've been through it
But somehow You've been
With me through it all
[Verse 3]
Through the halls of this house, through the darkness of doubt
Through every "why, God?" prayer
At the end of my faith, when I cried out Your name
Ain't no doubt in my mind You were there
Ain't no doubt in my mind You're still here
[Chorus]
'CauseĀ I've been through it, yeah
The kind of pain that makes a man just lose it, yeah
A broken that goes way beyond the bruises and the scars
This old world can be so hard
Yeah, I've been through it
But somehow You've been
With me through it all
[Bridge]
I have never been, I have never been
I have never been, I have never been alone
And I will never be, I will never be
I will never be, this is how I know
Say, I have never been, I have never been
I have never been, I have never been alone
And I will never be, I will never be
I will never be, this is how I know
[Outro]
'Cause You've been through it
The blood, the cross, Your life, You chose to lose it
A sacrifice that goes beyond the bruises and the scars
This old world can be so hard
Yeah, I've been through it
But I know You've been
With me through it all
