why me....this is such a strange way to save the world

i know: i wonder what could be so bad/ that it makes you want to die/ i wonder what could be so tragic/ makes you want to take your life/ you have your Savior on the cross/ while you sit on the throne/ put yourself up on that cross/ and put your Savior on the throne/ i know its hard to take whats happening/ and i know life is tough sometimes/ i know it seems like theres no hope for you/ but i know your life is worth more than you can see/ its hard to see beyond your pain/ when you feel so dead inside/ its hard to see what youve been given/ its hard to find the hope in life/ and i say look at Jesus' hands/ those scars are there for you/ you know he understands/ what youre going throughcandy: so many nights wasted/ poisoning myself/ i guess i just hated/ the emptiness i felt/ to be accepted/ gotta look like they do/ but you held your hand out/ you took me just as i am/ your loves like candy/ or like something never tasted before/ you take me places/ never dreamed i could go/ oh ive been laughed at/ and broken in two/ and i felt the wrath that/ words of hate can do/ and ive been stranded/ and left standing in the rain/ but you picked my head up/ you carried me away from this placemy struggle: must be some mistake/ cuz i'm not worth the price you paid/ with every passing hour/ i convince myself that you saw something in me/ i can hear them still/ as the whispers laced with hatred fill the room/ i guess i'm wasting my time/ how could you love (someone) like me?/ lord i need your strength/ cuz i am weak and fallin to my knees/ who is on my side/ cuz i cant tell my friends from enemies/ i'm filling up with pain/ and bitterness controls the air i breathe/ what am i fighting for/ or do you have a plan for me/ must be some mistake/ cuz i'm not worth the price you paid...more: do you really want to know me/ not just where i live/ do you really want to know me/ not just by the color of my skin/ do you really want to know me/ not just by the things i did/ if you really got to know me/ well it might take a little time/ cuz i am more than what i look like/ and i am more than where ive been/ and i am more than what they say about me/ i'm more, i'm more than what you see/ do you really want to know him/ man who lives under that bridge/ do you really want to know him/ and hear about the life hes lived/ if you really got to know him/ you might just be a bit surprised/ of how he lost his job in 1983/ and how that cancer got his wife/ he is more than what he looks like/ he is more than where hes been/ he is more than where hes ended up to be/ he is more, he is more than what you see and i am more than what i look like/ and i am more than where ive been/ and i am more than what they say about meWhat have we becomeJust look what weve doneAll that weve destroyed you must build again...
