Lyrics

Hurting Place
Music and lyrics by Kara Johnstad © 2004

Please don´t go
I´m so afraid to lose you before I really
Know you
Don´t walk away 
All though I know the pain´s 
So hard for you to bare
Love twists and tears us 
It dresses and it wears us
You look so gaunt and torn
Your face rather worn
You´re in a hurting place, looking for some grace
Call out my name and I´m there
Dissolve all the shame, know that I care 

Darkness Chills you´re pulled so far inside
Just keep talking to me baby, I say
Icey glares and silent stares Can´t regonize your eyes
You´re cut off from the world in every way  
You tug at your T, and mumble  “just let me be”
I try to decipher if your grumble means maybe
Phases sometimes faze us
And jesus sometimes saves us
But sometimes it´s just you alone against  the world
Harsxh winds that blow, Carrying the weight of each word

Your voice has changed   
Grown dark and deeply grained
Since your struggle with your loss
Let me gobble up the dark and give you just a little spark Yes,
Cry out the tears in my name
Release those bellied fears of shame

Like a cactus cry in the desert rain, 
Like a late night chat on a long night train
Like a deep yowl of a warrior´s cry
Or a mountain climber hanging from the sky
Like a cricket in the dark longing to sing
Or the humming flutter of a blackbird´s wings
Like a firefly longing to light again
