Shut It Out Lyrics

I have nothing you need, just a lot to hide
So why am I still here with You by my side
All I do is mess up, do the wrong thing
Instead of shining light, darkness shines through me
Don't wanna talk about it, just wanna shut it out
I'm not as bad as you think, the things I do are right
At least that's what I say, try to tell myself
Got it under control, I don't need your help
Try to do the right thing, end up doing it wrong
Don't deserve this life or even write this song
More I think of you, less I thing of myself
Lord, increase Your light and shadow me out
Tell me it's out of love... why can't you see
Tell me it's out of love... it's You, not me
So with the mind, I myself serve the law of Him
But with the flesh of my bone, serve the law of sin
O wretched man that I am, who will deliver me
From this body of death pulling from His tree
I wanna talk about it, don't wanna shut it out
I am as bad as you think, the things I do aren't right
At least that's what I say, try to tell myself
You got it under control, Lord I need Your help
