My God by This Beautiful Republic Lyrics
[Intro]
My God, oh, my God
[Verse 1]
I'm losing contact
Forgetting what is real
Able to touch, but not able to feel
It's easier, to shut out everyone
I'm chasing after my newest distraction to escape it all
[Chorus]
My God, oh, my God – what have I become?
The self-addicted one
My God, oh, my God – You never failed me
You're what I need
[Verse 2]
So often, I'm the sleeping prayer
More often, I'm the weeping betrayer
Sometimes I play the martyr, become the traitor
The humbled sinner, has never been a role I knew to play
[Chorus]
My God, oh, my God – what have I become?
The self-addicted one
My God, oh, my God – You never failed me
You're what I need
[Bridge]
Treason
A pound of flesh is the debt
Leaving a crippled man
I'll give You all I have left
A straining outstretched hand
Is it enough?
Reach down
Take me back
[Chorus]
My God, oh, my God – what have I become?
The self-addicted one
My God, oh, my God – You never failed me
You're what I need
[Outro]
I'll give You what I have left
A straining outstretched hand
My God, oh, my God
[Verse 1]
I'm losing contact
Forgetting what is real
Able to touch, but not able to feel
It's easier, to shut out everyone
I'm chasing after my newest distraction to escape it all
[Chorus]
My God, oh, my God – what have I become?
The self-addicted one
My God, oh, my God – You never failed me
You're what I need
[Verse 2]
So often, I'm the sleeping prayer
More often, I'm the weeping betrayer
Sometimes I play the martyr, become the traitor
The humbled sinner, has never been a role I knew to play
[Chorus]
My God, oh, my God – what have I become?
The self-addicted one
My God, oh, my God – You never failed me
You're what I need
[Bridge]
Treason
A pound of flesh is the debt
Leaving a crippled man
I'll give You all I have left
A straining outstretched hand
Is it enough?
Reach down
Take me back
[Chorus]
My God, oh, my God – what have I become?
The self-addicted one
My God, oh, my God – You never failed me
You're what I need
[Outro]
I'll give You what I have left
A straining outstretched hand
