Every Little Prison (Deliver Me)

From wanting to be loved

From wanting to be praised by all

From needing to be first

From finding all my worth in this world

From wanting to be seen

From constant worrying about myself

Deliver me

From validating words that only seem to serve a heart that's proud

And all my self esteem, dressed up in vanity and doubt

From wondering if I am relevant and liked, so God

Deliver me, deliver me

Show me what it all looks like

Scribbled on the pages of a human life

Riddled through the ages until we see the light

Breaking all the cages wide open

Every little prison

From fear of letting go

From fear of the unknown ahead

From being overlooked

And so misunderstood again

From fear of being judged

From rumors of a love that fails

Deliver me, deliver me

Show me what it all looks like

Scribbled on the pages of a human life

Riddled through the ages until we see the light

Breaking all the cages wide open

Every little prison

Let every man be more than I

Closer to the truth when I'm set aside

Mostly of no use, but when I fall I fly

Breaking all the cages wide open

All these little prisons

Show me what it all looks like

Scribbled on the pages of a human life

Riddled through the ages until we see the light

Breaking all the cages wide open

Every little prison
