Better Things

Growing pains
Becoming who I was made to be
I try to walk away
But all my mistakes keep chasing me
I fall down
When I’m alone and temptation is on display
All these stains
They cover me
Memories that won’t go away
But you say you’ll carry my weight
Through the storm
Cover my mistakes
You say to never be afraid
And hold onto the promises you made
I ran but you always chased me
I see you in my dreams
You are the air I breathe
And all the walls that I built are breaking
So now I see that you’re leading me onward to better things
I’ve seen the evidence
I’ve watched my heart change every day
Believe me when I say
This will never ever be easy
But I have seen and I believe
You hold my heart while it’s breaking
I ran but you always chased me
I see you in my dreams
You are the air I breathe
And all the walls that I built are breaking
So now I see that you’re leading me onward to better things
You never failed me
I fell away
But you never left me
You never left me
(Temptation come my way
I am stronger now than I have ever been)
Temptation come my way
I am stronger now than I have ever been
Temptation come my way
I am stronger now and I am not afraid!
I am stronger now and I am not afraid
You lead me to better things
Temptation come my way
Because I am more than my mistakes
I ran but you always chased me
I see you in my dreams
You are the air I breathe
And all the walls that I built are breaking
So now I see that you’re leading me onward to better things
You never failed me
I fell away but you never left me
You never left me
