My Defense

<br>Don`t put all Your hopes in this flesh<br>This flesh, this mess I am<br>Empty promises my steady diet<br>Won`t be quiet till I<br>Spread so thin devotion<br>Thus far my notions rant<br>Don`t put all Your hopes<br>Don`t put all Your trust in me<br>You must not see I can`t<br><br>Set the sights on failing<br>Target no control<br>Grips relax and lose hold<br><br>I lose my defense at Your answers<br>And I come all undone with Your gaze<br><br>Sunless skies this progress<br>Thicker skin can`t stretch the length<br>Wearying with face set against the elements<br>Is how I spent my strength<br><br>Set the sights on failing<br>Target no control<br>Grips relax and lose hold<br><br>I lose my defense at Your answers<br>And I come all undone with Your gaze<br>I lose my defense at Your answers<br>And my resolve at Your counter ways<br><br>I can`t run forever<br>With the lions loose on me<br>Show us no escape<br>Lest we forget we`re dying<br>Fill my mind with Your thoughts<br>My lungs with Your breath<br>My mouth with Your words<br>My soul with Your death<br><br>I lose my defense at Your answers<br>And I come all undone with Your gaze<br>I lose my defense at Your answers<br>And my resolve at Your counter ways
