"Cuts & Bruises" lyrics

"Cuts & Bruises"

I'm feeling sick, I'm losing sleep
I've cried so hard that I can't breathe
There is no drug they can prescribe
To close already heavy eyes
I've come so far along this path
Just to be forced to look back
This pain I can't describe and it's eating me alive

Tell me, how did I get here?
I'm not familiar with this place
But I'm no stranger to this fear
Locked up in my own life
But nobody hears my cries
I'm terrified of this bed I made
But I made it on my own

My knees are covered in cuts and bruises
From the ground where I used to kneel
Now it all seems so useless
How am I supposed to feel?
When my days grew dark, I called out your name
But didn't hear a sound
Now I'm at my lowest
And you still won't turn around

God, I know You're real
God, I know You're there
But I hate that I can't stop asking myself
Whether or not You care

Tell me, how did I get here?
I'm not familiar with this place
But I'm no stranger to this fear
Locked up in my own life
But nobody hears my cries
I'm terrified of this bed I made
But I made it on my own

This is for you if you're hiding behind
The lie that you're doing fine
Know that lost doesn't mean unloved
And wrong doesn't mean unforgiveable
If you're broken, pick up the pieces
If you're wounded, let it heal
Scars make impenetrable armor
Coupled with the willingness to overcome
The answers to prayer come in many different ways
You have to be looking to find them
Don't tell me it's too dark to see the truth
When you haven't even opened your eyes
