I am starting to realize
That I can do nothing on my own
Everything that I start to build crumbles into nothing!
It's safe to say no matter what
I try I fall so short
This unrelenting pride
Continues to widen the space between you and I

Is there a point in trying to change?
No matter what I do it always stay the same.
But I feel like this has been made for me
Is there something more that I can't see?

All I want is to let go
I try so hard; this pride still grows
Just for once to breathe in deep
And catch a glimpse of what you see in me
So many years of sorrow and grief
The bitterness I tasted in the face of defeat
How can I forget the joy of the mountain tops
Down in the valleys?!

Is there a point in trying to change?
No matter what I do it always stay the same.
But I feel like this has been made for me
Is there something more that I can't see?
But your ways are different they call out to me
No matter what I do you always stay the same
And I will have the choice to say
There is more to this life I am living

There is more
There is more

And even amidst the struggle of finding the man
That you have called me to be
Your love reminds me
That though I am broken I am still standing
I am still screaming!

Is there a point in trying to change?
No matter what I do it always stay the same.
And I will have the choice to say
There is more to this life I am living
There is more to this life I am living
There is more to this life I am living
