I wish that I could say I am a perfect man I wish sometimes that I would not be who I am One day I decided I would think on this Not knowing if faith and pain could co-exist Could I ever on my own conceive Of someone I did not know, but I need? I must be made to be at peace and communion 'Cause there must be some place Somehow from where I have fallen I find through every ounce of pain I feel That my mind cannot deny that God is real The inconsistency of what I say I should be Compared to what I am in actuality Leaves me in conclusion that I know the way Though I am unable to always obey Nothing in this world has satisfied My soul's hunger for a deeper life The weight of my misdeeds were crushing, blinding me And I still live with pain inside but now I can see And I find through every ounce of pain I feel That my mind cannot deny that God is real The pieces of my life are scattered on the floor I stared at them till I could take no more I do not deserve to be set free Forgiveness is what I desperately need If it wasn't for the perfect blood was shed Would I not be dead inside but I live instead I find through every ounce of pain I feel That my mind cannot deny that God is real I find through every ounce of pain I feel That my mind cannot deny that God is real I know my faith's still here Believe through all my tears
