Love Beside Me

I know now there’s no one here to blame
I could but what good would that do
It wouldn’t change a thing
So I grew accustomed to the shame
The sharp sting of your poison
Trying so hard to erase
All the good in me
If this is love beside me
I’m working on forgiveness
Laying the past down behind me
Letting go the ways that I’ve been hurt
Let the rivers rise and rage
I’ll try and stand with grace
If everything is love
In the end the war had left us broken
Mourning all the things I’d lost
The debts I couldn’t pay
But I didn’t want to disappear
I was caught in TV static
Sinking into grey
No more to give away
If this is love beside me
I’m working on forgiveness
Laying the past down behind me
Letting go the ways that I’ve been hurt
Let the rivers rise and rage
I’ll try to stand with grace
If this is love beside me
If this is love beside me
If this is love beside me
