"Every Little Prison ( Deliver Me )"

 "Every Little Prison  ( Deliver Me )"

Matt Maher


From wanting to be loved, from wanting to be praised by all

From needing to be first, from finding all my worth in this world

From wanting to be seen, from constant worrying about myself

Deliver me

From validating words that only seem to sever a heart that's proud

And all my self esteem, dressed up in vanity and doubt

From wondering if I am relevant and liked, oh God

Deliver me, deliver me


Show me what it all looks like

Scribbled on the pages of a human life

Riddled through the ages till we see the light

Breaking all the cages wide open

Every little prison


From fear of letting go, from fear of the unknown ahead

From being overlooked and so misunderstood again

From fear of being judged, from rumors of a love that fails

Deliver me, deliver me


Show me what it all looks like

Scribbled on the pages of a human life

Riddled through the ages till we see the light

Breaking all the cages wide open

Every little prison


Let every man be more than I

Closer to the truth when I'm set aside

Mostly of no use, but when I fall, I fly

Breaking cages wide open 

All these little prison 


Show me what it all looks like

Scribbled on the pages of a human life

Riddled through the ages till we see the light

Breaking all the cages wide open

Every little prison
