Carry Me

[Verse 1]

I chased you into the light

Yeah I stayed there to see myself pure

All the ashes and scars they fail

They pale in comparison to yours

There were footprints the size of the universe

There were fortunes that no one could earn

So I chased you farther still

And I hope that I never return

[Pre-Chorus]

From the river's mouth

To the mountain peak

Through the great divide and the valley deep

I need you to carry me

[Chorus]

Carry me

Carry me, I'm on my way

But I'm in too deep

I need you to carry me

[Verse 2]

You were calling me, into the deep

Into waters that no map could find

You were calling me

Out beyond my fears

Where my darkness finds rest in your light

I found a fortress where I could surrender

Where my shame didn't hide what I lacked

And so I chased you out farther still

Cause I know that I ain't never coming back

[Pre-Chorus]

From the river's mouth

To the mountain peak

From the great divide and the oceans deep

I need you to carry me

[Chorus]

Carry me

Carry me, I'm on my way

But I'm in too deep

I need you to carry me

[Bridge]

I found a place where the past was forgiven

Where my mistakes met a grace I couldn't earn

And so I piled up my excuses and defenses in the night

Then I lit a match, stepped back and watched them burn

[Pre-Chorus]

From the river's mouth

To the mountain peak

Through the great divide where the waters meet

I need you to carry me

[Chorus]

Carry me

Carry me, I'm on my way

But I'm in too deep

I need you to carry me

I need you to carry me

[Outro]

From the day I was born to the end of these seas

I need you to carry me
