I read the books I thought would make me feel
A little closer Lord to you
I wrote the songs I thought would make me heal
With little echoes of the truth
Yet I do what I want to do
Hold my heart I can’t go on
Bone dry closed mind I give up
I’ve got good friends I hope I don’t wear out
If all I bring is more bad news
I know they’ll tell me I am more than that
Don’t know how I get so confused
Guess I’ve just always liked the blues
Hold my heart I can’t go on
Bone dry closed mind I give up
And what now I don’t need more answers
Oh how I keep pushing through this
Break down I just want to feel your touch
And maybe you’ve been here and always will be
I keep looking at this dumb screen
And I don’t want to give it up
Help me give it up
These distractions don’t love us
To surrender is trust
There’s a hand reaching out
Hold my heart I can’t go on
Bone dry closed mind
Help me to give up
Help me to give up
