"I Cry Out"

When the emotion's gone
And I'm all that's left
Just a heavy,
Hesitating breath
I just want to do what's right
Oh God I want to stand upright

I cry out
For more, for more than a feeling
I cry out
For the truth, yeah I just want the real thing
I cry out
For you, for your healing

The pain is so heavy
It's weighing on my chest
The whole world
In all its loneliness
We're all searching for that open ear
To understand and hear

And I know that you hear my every call
But I make it so hard for you to do your job
When I don't give you
The same courtesy

I cry out
For more, for more than a feeling
I cry out
Behind this broken heart you're beating
I cry out
And you're the only one who's listening
The only one who really hears me

In every action, every flaw
See the heart behind it all
I'm trying so hard to be whole
That I trade, I trade my soul
And you remind me every time
That it's not by my design
That every lie is truth disguised
That every shadow comes from light, light

I cry out
Without words, my actions shout
I cry out
In every misstep, every doubt
For a bit of that divinity
To define, and filter out
Cause behind these eyes I pray
That I can be that every day
So I cry out
