She plays with my words like they were hers 
Little soldiers in a war against themselves 
She used to rob me of my own intent 
But now I'm keeping my findings from her shelves 
I used to think that honesty was all 
Between the two of us, nothing should go unsaid 
Then she taught me, although I took too long 
That some things should be said to God and then just left for dead 

I've got to learn to live alone 
Just lean into the Wing 
I've got to know that there is only One 
For whom I sing 
I've got to learn the difference 
Between me and this place 
Got to let my little hands 
Reach only for Your face 

I've felt the pressing of listening 
I've known an empathetic overload 
I've been a mile in so many other shoes 
I forgot my own out on the road 
But I'm coming now to understand 
That where my heart is, there's my treasure 
And the suffering that I am going through 
Will be replaced with a glory that I can't even measure
