Breathing In

I cannot run
My feet don’t seem to move
I cannot hide
Hide my face from you
I cannot lie
This love that’s sweeping me
I can’t deny
I have been good
I’ve given all I can
I have been bad
I let you down again
I have been holy
And I have been the one
Who cast the stone
And I close my eyes
Spaces open wide
No barriers between us
This love will never leave us
And I am breathing in
I have been scared
Scared you won’t be there
I have been brave
Brave enough to dare
To be walking in your shoes
Still I’m the one
Who shut the door on you
And I stand in awe
Like many times before
I can’t seem to reach you
But you have come to reach me
And I am breathing in
And I lift my voice
I rise above the noise
I’m gliding into silence
A silence I can hide in
And I am breathing in
