lyrics

With words well weighed,
I weave a delicate cover,
Lest I betray,
What a fool I am brother.

So I mask, conceal and bury,
Play the fool and play the game,
When did life become reduced to smoke and mirrors?

I’ll boast in my weakness,
So your strength may show,
I’ll boast in my failures,
So all will know,
That is not me, Lord,
But only you,
That is good, and pure, and true.

Though my heart is proud,
Just seeks to serve my own reflection,
I rebuke it aloud,
And cling to you and your perfection.

I won’t mask, conceal or bury,
I refuse to play the game,
I want my life to outgrow smoke and mirrors.

Less of me and more of you.
