Closer to Myself

Digging deep, I feel my conscience burn

I need to know who and what I am

This hunger jolts me from complacency

It rocks me, makes me meet myself

Jacob walked a limp to remind him

Of the greater gift of the greater one

But when I fell, I fell to my own resources

How can I carry a truth, if I can't even crawl to you?

Chorus:

I wanna feel something sweeter than this sin

Cover me in leaves and roll me over again

I've been everybody else now I wanna be

Something closer to myself

Paint me in a different light

Shed me yet another coat of skin

Mark me with ash until I'm clean again

Cause I'm so sick and tired

Of being sick and tired

I know I can love you, I know that I can

Chorus
