"Folded Hands" lyrics

"Folded Hands"

I've been a liar
Dishonest with myself
But I made everybody else
Believe
And jumped in the fire
Right off the edge of hell
I know the devil well
And he knows me

But this cross around my neck won't let me burn in flames
I found even at my worst I'm worth being saved

I won't take forgiveness for granted
I won't bite the hand that freed and feeds my soul
I still wear the scars from all my damage
I caused that left me stranded lost and outta control
But I've learned the best way to mend a broken man
Is holding on with folded hands

I'm a fighter
I fought those battles on my own
I thought that I was strong
And that made me weak
I'm a survivor
I realized I'm not alone
Through the chaos I found home
Now I know peace... I do

I won't take forgiveness for granted
I won't bite the hand that freed and feeds my soul
I still wear the scars from all my damage
I caused that left me stranded lost and outta control
But I've learned the best way to mend a broken man
Is holding on with folded hands
