Verse 1:
I was born to live the truth
The deepest truth of who I am
But I've been told my whole life what I shouldn't do
And that it's wrong to ever show who I really am
Oh -
Chorus:
Like a newborn hear me cry
I hurt inside and I don't know why
Like a newborn hear me cry
I'm ashamed inside and I don't know why
Verse 2:
I was born to love this life
The secret life that moves through my flesh
But I've been taught to withhold and how to hide
And now there's fear in every move; in my every breath
Oh -
Chorus
Bridge:
Unto each son these sins are born
A life of fear, a life of shame, and a life of scorn
And if we live ten thousand more
Will these three sins still be our gifts to each child born
Chorus +
There's a fear inside and I don't know why
And now I'm tired and I don't want to hide
