Unfathomed

Forget me

I know I can never be quite true
In this storm I am torn apart
For every time I step near to you
I get thrown back to the start

I will say that I can change
That I will strip away my sins
And give you my life in exchange
But every time I fail, the pain just begins

I feel like I'm looking through a painted glass
An opaque world just beyond my sight
A curse, a shame, a whisper to the last
I long for it, I yearn for it, but I'm dying in the fight

If I fly, will You meet with me there?
If I use these wings to reach the sun
Will the wax melt to shower despair
And there will I be forever undone?

I want to reach You, to draw from You strength
I want to run, but I feel so lost for breath
I want to dance, but I'm being watched
I want to try, but I'm losing my passion
I want to cry, but I'm too dry inside
I want to FLY, but these wings are made of wax

I want... to forget myself and see You.
