Shame is a river
When I cross its waters
I always sink
Hope's on the other side
But I got guilt like bricks to my feet

I was fifteen when I had my first drink
Numb on the sofa across from a shrink
Keeping my mouth shut and grinding my teeth
I got away as far as I could
But that didn't' do me any good
This hurricane's within me

Love is a sunrise
Where's the light to
Eclipse my grief
Grace speaks in silence
I've been quiet but only hear my own screams

I was fifteen when I had my first drink
Numb on the sofa across from a shrink
Keeping my mouth shut and grinding my teeth
I got away as far as I could
But that didn't do me any good
This hurricane's within me

I'm a force of nature
Keep your saviors
There's no prayer
See you reconcile me

Paint me a picture
Of what where I am
Finally cry myself clean

Show me a picture
Of what where I am
Forgiven and free

Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
