Gravity

This innocent idolatry

Not letting You in too deep

Because who knows if You can handle me



This innocent idolatry

I thought it made You proud of me

To keep my tears back behind my eyes



When did I decide

I’m not allowed to cry



Positivity can’t split these seas

And all my optimism won’t set this captive free

I need a King who hung on Calvary

I’ll always need a God who feels deeply

I need a God who knows the, the gravity



This innocent idolatry

I made You somehow just like me

Unable to sit in the suffering



This innocent idolatry

Movin’ too fast past my grief

When You are acquainted with what I’m carrying



When did I decide

I’m not allowed to cry



Positivity can’t split these seas

And all my optimism won’t set this captive free

I need a King who hung on Calvary

I’ll always need a God who feels deeply

I need a God who knows the gravity



Don’t let this truth be lost on me

My God He feels the gravity of everything
