Can I Get a Witness

Push me away
Turn out the light
Die another day
Put up a fight
Your only hurting yourself
With every shove and hateful stare
It would be easier to stand still
I try my hardest to live in the light
I try my hardest to make things right
"Don't let the sun set on your anger"
And forget all the hateful words
It's so much easier on this side of the fence
and everything He will forget
I only want to see you humbled before him
I only want you reaching out for him
