Seeing things through affixed shaded lenses
Like a stuck pair of dark sunglasses
Is my reality
Each day praying for a chance
To see more light
Some days I care about what you think
Other days I don’t
’Cause I’m focusing solely on me
And drawing air
I need to be loved without condition
I need someone to be there when I call
I need to be human
And to see that other Christians are human too
Teach me how to apply scripture
Through your words AND actions
Share the love of Christ
Even when you don’t feel like it
But remember ONLY Jesus can be my Savior
So create healthy boundaries
Remember your own family
Lifting me and my family up in prayer too
Allow the Holy Spirit to be your guide
Helping me to sense
His voice
Seeing things through affixed shaded lenses
Like a stuck pair of dark sunglasses
Is my reality
Each day praying for a chance
To see more light
Some days I care about what you think
Other days I don’t
’Cause I’m focusing solely on me
And drawing air
Like a stuck pair of dark sunglasses
Is my reality
Each day praying for a chance
To see more light
Some days I care about what you think
Other days I don’t
’Cause I’m focusing solely on me
And drawing air
I need to be loved without condition
I need someone to be there when I call
I need to be human
And to see that other Christians are human too
Teach me how to apply scripture
Through your words AND actions
Share the love of Christ
Even when you don’t feel like it
But remember ONLY Jesus can be my Savior
So create healthy boundaries
Remember your own family
Lifting me and my family up in prayer too
Allow the Holy Spirit to be your guide
Helping me to sense
His voice
Seeing things through affixed shaded lenses
Like a stuck pair of dark sunglasses
Is my reality
Each day praying for a chance
To see more light
Some days I care about what you think
Other days I don’t
’Cause I’m focusing solely on me
And drawing air
