lyrics

I fought with all my strength,
to be everything I'm not.
You cast me out, and left me there to rot.
Your family portrait is torn,
no one wants to live in a broken home.
You asked for this.
Now you will pay for it.
You asked for this.
Now you will beg for it.

I'd be lying, if I said I've be been trying
to make something of myself.
God I'm trying. I swear I am trying
to be everything that you're asking of me.

So rip the flesh from these bones.
Tear me up till nothing but a heart shows.
Make me a display of redemption and washing my hands clean.

I've made it this far just to walk away.
Leaving my home and family.
Our portrait came at too high a cost,
you took me from God and now I am lost.

Your family portrait is torn,
no one wants to stay in a broken home.
You asked for this.
Now you will pay for it.
You asked for this.
Now you will beg for it.

Blehhhhhhhhhh

You are forgiven 2x

I've spent so much time,
praying for love that was never mine, never mine.
Only He can heal a heart with so much hate inside. Pain inside

I've made it this far just to walk away.
Leaving my home and family.
Our portrait came at too high a cost,
you took me from God and now I am lost.
