Fallen...

Heaven Bend to take my hand/And lead me through the fire
Be the long awaited answer/To a long and painful fight
Truth be told I tried my best/But somewhere long the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
But the cost was so much more than I could bear

Though I've tried I've fallen/I have sunk so low
I messed up/Better I should know
So don't come round here and
Tell me I told you so

We all begin out with good intent/When love is raw and young
We believe that we can change ourselves/The past can be undone
But we carry on our back the burdens time always reveals
In the lonely light of morning/In the wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything/I've held so dear

Heaven bend to take my hand/I've nowhere left to turn
I'm lost to these I thought were friends/To everyone I know
Oh they turn their heads embarrassed/Pretend that they don't see
That it's one wrong step one slip before you know it
And there doesn't seem away to be redeemed
