Closer to myself

Digging deep, i feel my conscience burn
i need to know who and what i am
this hunger jolts me from complacency
rocks me, and makes me meet myself
jacob walked a limp to remind him
of the greater gift of the greater one
when i fell, i fell to my own resources
how can i carry your truths if i can't even crawl to you?
i wanna feel something sweeter than this sin
cover me in leaves and roll me over again
cause i've been everybody else, now i want to be
something closer to myself
paint me in a different light
shed me another coat of skin
mark me with ash until i'm clean again
cause i'm so sick and tired of being sick and tired
i know i can love you, i know that i can
i wanna feel something sweeter than this sin
cover me in leaves and roll me over again
cause i've been everybody else, now i want to be
something closer to myself
i wanna feel something sweeter than this sin
cover me in leaves and roll me over again
cause i've been everybody else, now i want to be
something closer to myself
and i wanna feel something sweeter than this sin
cover me in leaves and roll me over again
cause i've been everybody else, now i want to be
something closer to myself
