"the parable of the son" lyrics

"the parable of the son"

I'm not the savior you asked for
I'm not the person I thought I would be
I left a note on the back porch
Said I was sorry for all of the things I said
I was over my head
So when I leave home and I end up dead
I'm not the savior you asked for

So when it's time to go to sleep
Will You say to me
"You don't have to leave, darling
Stay with Me"

"I am the light upon your feet
I am your bed when you get weak
I'll be your blanket to wear when it's colder
Don't carry the weight of the world on your shoulders
And I will calm your seas and set you free
And when you don't know where to go
Darling, I will be your home"

I'm only twenty but I hate the person that I see
Wish that I could feel alright, I'm cursed by this anxiety
If you found out who I am I don't think you'd like him
So I just keep hiding
And I like it that way because if they never know who I am
Then I never gotta feel another stone
Some days I believe in God and then other days I don't
There's a noose around my faith
If I tighten up the rope and I

Go to sleep
Will You say to me
"You don't have to leave, darling
Stay with Me"

"I am the light upon your feet
I am your bed when you get weak
I'll be your blanket to wear when it's colder
Don't carry the weight of the world on your shoulders
And I will calm your seas and set you free
And when you don't know where to go
Darling, I will be your home
I am the light upon your feet
I am your bed when you get weak
I'll be your blanket to wear when it's colder
Don't carry the weight of the world on your shoulders
I will calm your seas and set you free
And when you don't know where to go
Darling, I will be your-"
