Sitting in the bleachers Waiting for my time Crushes on all the student teachers Searching for that perfect line I always wanted just to fit in but couldn't sit in The role of what a woman should be And when the girls came around in jerseys Hard to play down I was weak in the knees Remember how I felt back then Scared to tell any of my friends Was it contextual? Or am I bisexual? Standing on a church pew Screaming out to something Never wanted to hurt you And I can't say all that shit meant nothing I always knew I couldn't live up, needed to give up What they said I was called to be And when you asked me to choose between God and you, it's true I chose myself and me Remember how I felt back then Sometimes I still feel it again I don't really mind it Still trying to find it Used to lean on it like a crutch Now I know I don't know that much I might be unsteady But maybe I'm ready Maybe I'm ready

And I met the seventh son He came for everyone The day he heard the lightning in the field I've heard him clear his throat A fork within the road That night the tallahatchie took the wheel I've been throwing knives to see just where they'll land Now my world is in your hands Send in the congregation Open your eyes, step in the light A jukebox generation Just as you were The voice upon the stage Is a heart inside a cage And it's singing like bluebird in the round There's mystery in this wood And ghosts within these roots And a tangle deep beneath this southern ground I've been going through life making foolish plans Now my world is in your hands Send in the congregation Open your eyes, step in the lights A jukebox generation Just as you were Just as you were Just as you were And you need blind faith No false hope No false hope Do you have blind faith? No false hope No false hope Where is your blind faith? No false hope No false hope Open your eyes Open your eyes Step into the light! Open your eyes Step into the light! The sound becomes Congregation A congregation A congregation And there In the singing like a blue bird in the round

Wake up, it's time We need to find a better place to hide Make up your mind I need to know, I need to know tonight Sweet and divine Razor of mine Sweet and divine Razorblade shine Patience my dear We could spend a lifetime waiting here Maybe this time I hope I get the chance to say goodbye Sweet and divine Razor of mine Sweet and divine Razorblade shine Day after day Cutting away Day after day But anyway Wake up, it's time We need to find a better place to hide Make up your mind I need to know, I need to know tonight Sweet and divine Razor of mine Sweet and divine Razorblade shine

Crazy but I'm relieved this time Begging for sweet relief of blessing in disguise Dying behind these tired eyes I've been losin' sleep, please come to me tonight Hands on a miracle I got my hands on a miracle Leave it or not, hands on a miracle And there ain't no way, let you take it away Everything that we survived It's gonna be alright, just lucky we're alive Got no vision I've been blind Searchin' everywhere, you're right here in my sights Hands on a miracle I got my hands on a miracle Leave it or not, hands on a miracle And there ain't no way, let you take it away Hands on a miracle I got my hands on a miracle Leave it or not, hands on a miracle I got my hands on a miracle And there ain't no way, let you take it away Take it away
