I truly do
I fall so short
I truly feel it now
The inadequacy within me
Is tearing me apart

I feel like I am crumbling
I think that I might die
I know that if you saw me
Your hope in me would wither

I wish I could give up the dream
I wish that I could go
But you won't allow it anyhow
You always tell me no

And even though my soul is dead
and my heart has finally failed
You are the one who carries on
Your provision will prevail

I'm sorry I couldn't make it
I'm sorry I fell so short
I'm sorry for all the things I've done
And that I couldn't even start
