For Free

Well, I've been lost and
I've been a stranger in my own skin
for some time and I can't count
for you the lives that have come through
this soul there's no danger in accepting
uncertainty still
I know you fear for me you say if I keep
giving for free who's gonna buy

I can be the teacher and also learn
the lesson I can toss the details
but I can get lost in them too sometimes
I know black from white but
I'm still discovering gray and
I know you're just like me
you're just like me
giving for free who's gonna buy

I've been without grace and
I watched you get it back for me
Have I all this time been standing here waiting?
seems such a simple thing
not to let it go so easily
but sometimes you're taking
when you're giving
when you're giving for free who's gonna buy
