I know your skin, I know your bones.
I know you don't think that you're beautiful.
I've seen your scars, I know you feel alone. But I've felt your presence and it's wonderful.

Time and time goes by.
You scream, you cry –
and you don't know why – it hurts.
It can't get worse.

50 miles down the interstate, you packed your bags ready to get away. Can't stand to look out your rearview mirror, it reminds you of the past.
10 months overdue, broken wrists and a bad tattoo. Why did this story have to land on you?

Time and time goes by.
You scream, you cry –
and you don't know why – it hurts.
It can't get worse... it can't get -

Pulled over on the side of the road, can't drive farther to emotional – this is the day you been waiting for.
Need to run, getting deeper out of sight. If they track your trail they ca find you just fine.
Shaken soul, can't take it anymore.

I know your skin, I know your bones.
I know you don't think you are beautiful.
I've seen your scars, I know you feel alone. But I've felt your presence and it's wonderful.
Just surrender now, it'll be all right.
I know savior who will hold you tight. You don't have to flee, not anymore.
He loves you for who you are no matter the scars. No matter the pain. No matter where you've been, he wants to know your name.
