Showbread - The Prison Comes Undon lyrics

rate me

I hear when Jesus tells me that I need to bite my tongue

And my teeth, they try to cage it

But the prison comes undone

And everything I'm saying goes falling to the floor

And you're trying not to trip on it

As you walk out the door

My pride negates the iron bar I've driven through my neck

Compounded by the effort

That I constantly regret

Can you show me some patience while I try to see this through

When what goes on inside of me

Is not always the same as what I do

I tell him that I'm trying

But I'm sure you have your doubts

And this awful weight I'm dragging

I can mostly do without

If you still want to love me

It won't come without a cost

The fight to be much better

Is a fight I've often lost
