Great Wide Open

Original

"I didn't say it'd be easy, but it'd be worth it"

Picture of Jesus momma hung up on the wall

Back then, I didn't think I deserved it

The kind of love that covers it all

Then through the years, I just got tangled

Took the roads a lonely man is gonna take

Tried to inflate myself into something

While everything around me shrank

Into the great wide open

I surrender it all

Every word unspoken

Is coming out through cracks in the wall

From all the weight I carried

Everything for so long

Into the great wide open

I surrender, and I fall

Time and time again, I prayed for answers

Asking what it takes to make me enough

It's like I had held my soul for ransom

Fell on my knees and gave it up

Into the great wide open

I surrender it all

Every word unspoken

Is coming out through cracks in the wall

From all the weight I carried

Everything for so long

Into the great wide open

I surrender, and I fall

And I fall

God, I've waited to turn it around

I was dreaming I'd come up from the ground

Into the great wide open

Into the great wide open

Into the great wide open

I surrender, and I fall
