WITNESS Lyrics

Hold tight

Step into the light

In spite of everything

You're still alive

And you

You know it wasn't right

To wait for someone else

To save your life

But we were listening

We were listening

We were listening

We are your witness

I find myself untethered

Could this be Hell or is this Heaven?

No fear, no anger, only love in every known direction

How could I be in this place

This empty hall, this sacred space

When all I ever knew was how to hate?

(It's never too late)

I heard it call my name

I felt its gaze, I felt the shame

For what it's worth I tried my best

But I never was good at this game

And now I hear them call again

The same voice that I heard back then

But now I recognize it as my friends

While I was waiting for someone to comprehend

I was always good enough for them

(It's never too late)

I know you're listening

I know you're listening

I know you're listening

I know you're listening

I know you're asking

Is someone listening?

I know you're asking

Is someone listening?

But somebody out there knows

Somebody out there loves you

Somebody out there knows

Somebody out there cares if you wake up tomorrow

And they are listening

'Cause I am listening

Because I know

Because I've been there

And I hope you know

That I can't wait to see you tomorrow

And they will listen

God as my witness
