Lost in Darkness, hands outstretched
F# C#
And I wonder...

I'm drowning in the mess I've made
F#
I can't do this on my own

Yearning for a distant time when when I was your own
G#m B
Wondering if I ever even knew you at all

God how can I face them all, they're haunting me;

Violent voices screaming "this ain't who you outta be."

So to continue the metaphor
F# C#
The water's rising quicker than ive еver seen before
G#m
And I look up, see anothеr wave coming
B F#
It's caught me in its undertow and I know to start swimming away
I'm gonna have to leave behind that which I've clung to
C#
And trust in Him instead of doing what I do
G#m
And I'm so scared cause I've been here before
B
And I don't think that I could take this back and forth any more
F#
This time I promise you that I've found my way
C#
I'm through with this sick carnival and I'm so tired of drifting away
B F# C#
It's been way too long since I last felt the warmth of your embrace
G#m
Now it's time to come home
B F#
Wash me, cleanse me, save me God!
C#
The stains of my sin have soaked my skin
G#m F# B
I'm screaming for you now I am deep down in the mud I cannot find my way

D#m B C# D#m
Why do bad things happen to good people?

In the midst of the silence, He's moving within

And out of the raging sea

I'm lifted by His hand

An angel dragged me to dry land
