This Time I'm Ready

In me, father
I have your hands, your eyes and your mind
I'll always remember
Your tender surrender

Underlyin'
I swear, I'm tryin' hard to forget
'Cause your imperfection
Is now my obsession

And I won't tune out the light
A shadow does in the night
But I won't give up on life

(Ah-ah-ah, ah)
This time I'm ready
This time I'm ready
Like the fire in me
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh)
This time I'm ready
This time I'm ready
To become what you've always seen
What you've always seen
In me

A damn defyin'
That's right, an apple falls from the tree
This beautiful garden
I'm bruised and forgotten

All things come to an end
Even hate is my friend
Though I think he pretends
There's no space left between
Truth is ripped at the seams
Live my life like I dream, dream
(Dream)

(Oh-oh, oh)
This time I'm ready
This time I'm ready
Like the fire in me
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh)
This time I'm ready
This time I'm ready
Whatever's thrown at me
Oh, ho-oh

Oh-oh (oh-oh)
Oh-oh (oh-oh)
Whoa-oh, oh
Oh-oh (oh-oh)
Oh-oh (oh-oh)
Oh-oh (oh-oh)
Whoa-oh
What you've always seen
In me

Inhale, exhale, breathe in
Inhale, exhale, breathe in
Always runnin'
Away from somethin'
But you can't run from yourself
We never see it comin'

Inhale, exhale, breathe in
Inhale, exhale, breathe in
We never see it comin'
