Stones

I know that i've made mistakes
And i'm aware i've told some lies
I'm sorry that I broke your heart
You'll be glad to know that I broke mine

Well I lost two good friends this year
And I buried both my dogs
So if you think that i've been hiding out of fear
Then you just don't know me at all

You can hate me if you want to
Cause if you think you've got a right
Just make sure that you're not jumping to conclusions
Before you go to draw your knife

I never meant to hurt a soul
But just keep saying what you will
I just tried to use the earth to fill a hole
I found that God can only fill

I've learned a lot of things this year
But there's one thing that helped the most
It's okay to burn a bridge down to the ground
Right where you should've built a moat

You can hate me if you want to
Cause if you think you've got a right
Just make sure that you're not jumping to conclusions
Before you go to draw your knife

Before you go to draw your knife

I can feel the pressure coming over me like setting sails
Tried to come to my senses
But sometimes they tend to fail
And I tried to come out swinging
But I couldn't hold back tears
It's no wonder that a can of soup can't get me through this year
And i've taken advantage of the debt that Jesus paid
And i'm scared my heart has damage
From the wars that I have waged
And it's true before
I've been a whore like Mary Magdalene
And i've felt stones that cracked my bones
I'm just glad that God stepped in
I'm glad that God stepped in

Well there's a father that forgives
And there's a God that knows the truth
So i'm not scared to face His judgement
Well I'm just scared that you will too

So you can go burn all my records
And put me six feet in the ground
There's still a flame that burns forever in my heart
Your hatred just cannot put out

Your hatred just cannot put out
