It's Friday night
And the week's sunlight is fading
Fighting with my heart
While I'm in the car and I hate it
Feeling numb at the wheel
I don't know how to feel
Simply speaking as I find
Could my hope come again
Through the face of a friend? Oh, oh-oh

All this fear and trembling
Reassembling everything I read
All these pages turning
You're concerned but I hope you can see

I am growing tired
Of this make-believe
Far too many days
Where I fear it's just me and
This God I believe
Please convince me that
You'rе not scared of me
I won't run away
If you think you can handle
My hеart on my sleeve

This month is long
As I play along to the chorus
Set my soul at ease
Help me see the trees for the forest
Nothing left to defend
Just a means to an end
As you give and take away
Watch me take in a breath
Help me treasure what's left

All this fear and trembling
Reassembling everything I need
All these pages turning
You're concerned but I hope you can see

I am growing tired
Of this make-believe
Far too many days
Where I fear it's just me and
This God I believe
Please convince me that
You're not scared of me
I won't run away
If you think you can handle
My heart on my sleeve

You may tire of me
'Cause I'm not who I used to be
You may tire of me
'Cause I'm not who I used to be
Please don't tire of me
'Cause I'm not who I used to be
Please don't tire of me

I am growing tired
Of this make-believe
Far too many days
Where I fear it's just me and
This God I believe
Please convince me that
You're not scared of me
I won't run away
If you think you can handle
My heart on my sleeve
