"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
