These things have I said and been lying
These things have I done just to do
And I see my face looking back in the mirror
Sometimes I don't even know myself

It's a thin disguise but the fact of the matter
Is I can't blame anybody else
'Cause I've been keeping it inside of me
When it's dying to be free
With a mouth set for singing and a heart to believe

And oh, revive me
My heart, inside me

These things have I done and kept silent
These things have I done them to You
There were too many times that I tried to remember
Oh, I walked away from You

And I live my life to a song that I render
Like ghosts from an empty tom
And I'm tired of finding out the hard way
What I have always known to be true

And oh, revive me
My heart, inside me

These things have I done in private
These things have I yet to learn
These things do I try to leave behind me now
These things have I left the Bridegroom
These things have I left to burn
These things are the truth and I am sorry now

And oh, revive me
My heart, inside me
