JOHN SCHLITT lyrics : "Can't Get Away"

in the closets of my mind
i have thoughts unfit for swine
secrets that i dare not tell

you know them well
'neath a veil of innocence
i disguise my decadence

but somehow you see through it all
and love me still, you love me still
even in my darkest hour

you display your mercy's power
since i met you, i've discovered


[chorus]
can't get away, can't get away
from your love

can't get away, can't get away
from your love
i may run and i may hide

but you will seek and you will find
i can't get away, can't get away
from your love


knowing i deserve to burn
eternal life i try to earn

motivated by my guilt
i slave away
imprisoned by the laws of man

i sink deeper in the sand
will i ever realize
i'm in your grace, i'm in your grace?

covered by the blood of christ
i don't have to pay the price
there's no escaping paradise


[chorus]
even in my darkest hour

you display your mercy's power
since i met you, i've discovered


[chorus]
